AS IEC 60645.1, 2024 – Electroacoustics – Audiometric equipment, Part 1: Equipment for pure-tone and speech audiometry
AS IEC 60645.1 is an international standard concerning audiology, primarily focusing on specifications and procedures for hearing tests. This standard is jointly developed by the Australian Standards (AS) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) to ensure consistent and accurate testing of hearing globally.
AS IEC 60645.1 standard includes the following aspects:
Equipment Requirements: This covers specifications, calibration, and usage procedures for testing equipment to ensure accuracy and repeatability of tests.
Testing Processes and Procedures: It defines standard procedures for conducting hearing tests, including requirements for testing environment, qualifications and training of testers, and preparation of test subjects.
Testing Parameters and Measurement Standards: It specifies various parameters to consider during hearing tests, such as frequency range, sound intensity, types of test signals, etc.
Data Recording and Reporting: It determines standard formats and content for recording and reporting test results to facilitate accurate comparison and analysis of results.
AS IEC 60645.1 aims to ensure standardization and comparability of hearing tests, enabling consistent results across different regions and institutions. This enhances the evaluation of individuals’ hearing status and facilitates appropriate intervention measures.
