Technology has advanced so that water-resistant and even waterproof hearing aids are available. Although some new hearing aids are able to resist water damage, be sure to know the level of water resistance in your aids according to these ratings before you take them into a risky situation.

 

 

So, what is the waterproof performance of general waterproof hearing aids?

 

First of all, we need to make it clear that hearing aids with waterproof functions are definitely more waterproof than hearing aids without any waterproof function.

Generally speaking, hearing aids with waterproof function achieve waterproof function by spraying a nano-coating on the surface of the hearing aid.

Many mid-to-high-end machines currently on the market basically have this function. In terms of industry standards, they use IP standards to regulate the waterproof level.

IP68 is the highest level of dustproof and waterproof level standard in GB/T 4208-2017 enclosure protection level (IP code).

To evaluate the anti-solid and waterproof performance of the casing, it mainly depends on the two digits XX at the back of IPXX. The first X is the dustproof grade from 0 to 6, and the highest grade is 6; the second X is the waterproof grade from 0 to 8, the highest grade. level 8; In other words, hearing aids that can reach IP68 are not only waterproof but also dustproof.

The second digit reaches 8, which means that it can continue to be immersed in water more than 1m deep.

However, even hearing aids that meet the IP68 standard are only resistant to ordinary accidental splashes and cannot be worn while swimming or bathing at all. Also, because the hearing aid must use a small hole, it cannot be immersed in water for a long time.

Therefore, if the hearing aid is accidentally immersed in water, you need to take out the battery immediately, wipe the surface of the hearing aid and the inside of the battery compartment with a clean and soft dry cloth or paper towel, and remove the earmold earplugs, sound guide tubes, and other accessories. Then, the hearing aids need to be put into the drying box or electronic care bag for sufficient dehumidification and drying.

In addition, be very careful, do not try to dry the hearing aids by the fire, do not blow them with a hairdryer, do not use a heating stove, do not bake them in an oven, do not expose them to the sun, do not If nothing else, try to continue using it. Remember, a drying box or e-Care will be required. If you don't know what to do, it is recommended to go to the Hearing Youdao Fitting Center and seek professional help.

How can the hearing aids help us?

 

Hearing aids can be incredibly useful in helping people with hearing loss to hear better and enjoy a more fulfilling life. They work by amplifying sound so that quiet or muffled noises can be heard more clearly. This can make a big difference for people who struggle to hear conversations, music, or other important sounds.

One of the main benefits of hearing aids is that they can help people to stay connected with their loved ones and the world around them. People with hearing loss often feel isolated and left out of social situations, but hearing aids can help to bridge that gap. They allow people to participate fully in conversations, hear important announcements or alerts, and enjoy music, movies, and other forms of entertainment.

How does the hearing aids work？

 

Hearing aid work by amplifying sounds and making them easier to hear and understand.

The basic components of a hearing aid include a microphone, an amplifier, and a speaker. The microphone picks up sounds from the environment and converts them into electrical signals. These signals are then sent to the amplifier, which increases the volume of the signals. Finally, the speaker converts the electrical signals back into sound waves, which are then transmitted into the ear canal.
