KC50 Clinical Audiometer

The KC50 is our full-featured state of the art audiometer. This audiometer features two independent channels that are configurable for either right or left hand operation. The KC50 is developed for the purpose of providing the advanced clinic or training institution with a tool that not only performs all traditional audiometric tests but also provides a full battery of classic supra threshold tests such as Bekesy, MLD, ABLB, and Loudness Scaling. Every test has a dedicated screen to make it easier to monitor results and understand the rationale behind each test. This feature is particularly useful in training environments.

High frequency audiometry is included that works also with Bekesy and it provides intermediate frequency selection for uses such as tinnitus matching.

Printout choices include the optional built-in thermal printer, direct connection to a laser printer, and PC connection using either NOAH or a Windows98 based Interacoustics software.

The flexible and functional design of the KC50 is demonstrated also by the choice of displaying large digits for audiometric results or actual on-line audiograms including AC, BC, and UCL thresholds.
