The Bruel & Kjaer 4128 conforms with IEC 60318


 

Measuring Ranges - Listener Frequency Response


Conforms to ITU-T Rec. P.58 for measurements on telecommunications devices and to IEC60318-7 and ANSIS3.3-1985 for measurements on air conducting hearing aids
 

Ear Simulator


IEC60318-4/ITU-T Rec. P.57 Type 3.3-based calibrated ear simulator complying with ITU-T Rec. P.57, IEC60318-4 and ANSIS3.25 standards. Output from the ear simulator is via a 7-core 3m cable (2.3m from the bottom of the torso) terminated with a Lemo (1B) plug. For connection to a preamplifier input socket of Bruel & Kjaer Power Supplies, Analysers, etc.
Typical Sensitivity: 12.6mV/Pa (-38 dB re 1 V/Pa) at 250Hz
3% Distortion Level: 162 dB re 20 µPa at eardrum position
 

Left Ear to Right Ear Tracking


±1 dB up to 5 kHz, ±3 dB up to 8 kHz (measured using the same ear simulator)
 

Pinna Simulators


Dimensions similar to those specified in ITU-T Rec. P.58, IEC60318-7 and ANSIS3.36. Minor adjustments in the dimensional details have been made which enable Type 4128-C to conform with the acoustic specifications of these documents in the frequency range 100 Hz to 8 kHz. Types 4158-C and 4159-C are supplied with calibrated pinna simulators. An additional pair of uncalibrated hard pinna simulators are available as accessories
 

Mouth Simulator
