AK-9 data sheet

Product catalog summary

Introduction
The AIKIA AK-9 is a digital mini behind-the-ear (BTE) hearing aid that introduces Integrated Signal Processing™ to the mid-range market. It features Dynamic Integrator™ technology for enhanced sound processing and user experience.

Key Features

Dynamic Integrator™: Integrates and stores knowledge for improved sound analysis.
Detailed Sound Analysis: Includes Sound Diary, Speech and Noise Tracer, S/N Ratio Tracer, Spatial Feedback Tracer, and Spatial Sound Tracer.
Flexible Sound Processing: Features AIKIA Locator, multi-directional active feedback cancelling, Speech Intensification System, and Enhanced Dynamic Range Compression.
Automatic System Optimiser: Includes battery monitor, EcoTech II, multi-point microphone matching, and DAI auto-detect.

Suggested Fitting Range
The fitting range covers frequencies from 125 Hz to 8 kHz, with sound levels ranging from -10 dB to 120 dB.

Technical Data

Output measurements are based on standard pure tone tests, with the hearing aid set to linear test mode.
Maximum output and gain are measured using IEC 60118-7, ANSI S3.22 (2003), and IEC 60118-0 standards.
Frequency range varies from 100 Hz to 7550 Hz, depending on the measurement conditions.
Harmonic distortion is minimal, with values ranging from 0.1% to 1.3% at different frequencies.
Battery life is approximately 370 hours using Type 13 Zn-Air batteries.

Performance Graphs
The document includes graphs showing output dB SPL across various frequencies, demonstrating the hearing aid's performance under different conditions.
