1 An audiometer is an equipment primarily designed for use in determining hearing threshold levels relative to standard reference equivalent threshold levels. This standard classifies audiometers based on their presumed primary application and the type of signal they present (pure-tones, speech or both). It also specifies the minimum required facilities and provides specifications for pure-tone and speech signals, across different audiometer types and classes. Additionally, this document includes standard reference equivalent threshold levels for audiometric transducers, including supra-aural earphones and bone vibrators. The purpose of this standard is to define the key performance requirements for audiometers for quality assurance and calibration purposes.
