DIN EN 62127-1
Ultrasonics - Hydrophones - Part 1: Measurement and characterization of medical ultrasonic fields up to 40 MHz (IEC 62127-1:2007 + Cor. :2008 + A1:2013); German version 62127-1:2007 + A1:2013
Ultraschall - Hydrophone - Teil 1: Messung und Charakterisierung von medizinischen Ultraschallfeldern bis zu 40 MHz (IEC 62127-1:2007 + Cor. :2008 + A1:2013); Deutsche Fassung EN 62127-1:2007 + A1:2013
Overview
The main purpose of this part of IEC 62127 is to define various acoustic parameters that can be used to specify and characterize ultrasonic fields propagating in liquids, and, in particular, water, using hydrophones. Measurement procedures are outlined that may be used to determine these parameters. Specific device related measurement standards, for example IEC 61689, IEC 61157, IEC 61847 or IEC 62359, can refer to this standard for appropriate acoustic parameters. The responsible committee is DKE/GUK 821.3 "Medizinische Ultraschallgeräte" ("Ultrasonics") of the DKE (German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies) at DIN and VDE.
