Electroacoustics - Hearing aids - Part 4: Induction loop systems for hearing aid purposes - Magnetic field strength
Applies to audio-frequency induction loop systems producing an alternating magnetic field at audio frequencies and intended to provide an input signal for hearing aids operating with an induction pick-up coil. The standard specifies requirements for the field strength in audio-frequency induction loops for hearing aid purposes, which will give adequate signal-to-noise ratio without overloading the hearing aid. The standard also specifies the minimum frequency response requirements for acceptable intelligibility. Methods for measuring the magnetic field strength are specified, and information is given on appropriate measuring equipment (see Annex B), information that should be provided to the operator and users of the system (see Annex C), and other important considerations.

Electroacoustique - Appareils de correction auditive - Partie 4: Systèmes de boucles d'induction utilisées à des fins de correction auditive - Intensité du champ magnétique
S'applique aux systèmes de boucles d'induction audiofréquences qui produisent un champ magnétique alternatif à fréquence acoustique et destinés à produire un signal d'entrée aux appareils de correction auditive fonctionnant avec une bobine d'induction captrice. Cette norme spécifie des exigences concernant l'intensité du champ dans les boucles d'induction utilisées à des fins de correction auditive, qui correspond à un rapport signal sur bruit convenable sans surcharge de l'appareil de correction auditive. Elle spécifie également des exigences concernant la réponse en fréquence minimale pour une intelligibilité acceptable. Les méthodes de mesure de l'intensité du champ magnétique et des renseignements sur l'équipement de mesure approprié (voir Annexe B), ainsi que les renseignements qu'il y a lieu de fournir aux opérateurs et aux utilisateurs du système (voir Annexe C) sont donnés, avec d'autres considérations importantes.

This European Standard was approved by CENELEC on 2006-11-01. CENELEC members are bound to comply
with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations which stipulate the conditions for giving this European Standard
the status of a national standard without any alteration.
Up-to-date lists and bibliographical references concerning such national standards may be obtained on
application to the Central Secretariat or to any CENELEC member.
This European Standard exists in three official versions (English, French, German). A version in any other
language made by translation under the responsibility of a CENELEC member into its own language and notified
to the Central Secretariat has the same status as the official versions.
CENELEC members are the national electrotechnical committees of Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, the Czech
Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia,
Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain,
Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.

Foreword
The text of document 29/604/FDIS, future edition 2 of IEC 60118-4, prepared by IEC TC 29,
Electroacoustics, was submitted to the IEC-CENELEC parallel vote and was approved by CENELEC as
EN 60118-4 on 2006-11-01.
This European Standard supersedes EN 60118-4:1998 + A1:1998.
The purpose of this revision is to provide more information about practical considerations and methods of
measurement. In addition, the requirements for magnetic field strength have been clarified and modified
in the light of practical experience since EN 60118-4:1998 was published. Requirements for the provision
to the end-user of information about the system have been introduced, intended to help to keep systems
working once they have been correctly set up.
The following dates were fixed:
– latest date by which the EN has to be implemented
at national level by publication of an identical
national standard or by endorsement (dop) 2007-08-01
– latest date by which the national standards conflicting
with the EN have to be withdrawn (dow) 2009-11-01

Endorsement notice
