IEC: 60318-4

The GRAS 43AC-S5 Ear Simulator Kit with TEDS is a complete test-jig for high-frequency measurements up to 20 kHz on earphones coupled to the ear by inserts such as tubes and ear moulds.

Technology

The GRAS 43AC-S5 Ear Simulator Kit is a complete test jig for acoustically testing earphones coupled to the ear via inserts such as tubes and ear moulds and complies with the following international requirements:

  • IEC 60318-4: Occluded-ear simulator for the measurement of earphones coupled to the ear by ear inserts.

43AC-S5 uses the RA0402 High Resolution Ear Simulator which extends the useful frequency range to 20 kHz. Read more abot the RA0402 here.

The 43AC-S5 comprises:

The Test Jig has an adjustable spring-loaded arm to exert a variable force on the test object.

An externally polarized version is available, GRAS 43AC-S4.

TEDS Compatibility

43AC-S5 is IEEE 1451.4 TEDS v. 1.0 compliant. If your measurement platform supports Transducer Electronic Data Sheets (TEDS), you will be able to read and write data like properties and calibration data.
