Audiology Room

What is an Audiology Room?

An audiology room, also known as an audiometric or auditory examination room, is specifically designed to provide an environment for accurate audiometric testing that meets the noise standards set by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). To comply with these noise standards, many audiologists rely on Eckel Audiology Rooms.

Constructions

Wall & Ceiling Construction:
The wall panels measure 4” (100mm) and are made of a galvanized solid steel outer surface and a perforated steel inner surface. The ceiling panels are 6” (150mm) thick and include an integrated silenced ventilation system, with a galvanized solid steel outer surface and a perforated steel inner surface. The acoustic insulation varies depending on the panel type, but each panel system (Base, Prime) is independently tested to provide excellent transmission loss.

 

Isolated Floor Construction:
The floor panels are available in 2”, 3”, and 4” (50.8mm, 76.2mm, 101.6mm) thicknesses and are made of galvanized steel outer and inner (walking) surfaces. Heavy-duty framing members and an inner surface support consistent use and wheelchair accessibility. The acoustic insulation matches that of the wall and ceiling panels. All floors are installed on isolation mounts to protect against structure-borne noise sources. The overall step-up height is approximately 7” (175mm) from the outside.

Door

Standard door clear openings measure 36” (914mm) in width and 73 3/4” (1873mm) in height. For rooms 11 and 11A, the door clear openings measure 32″W x 73 3/4″H. The doors are designed to offer similar acoustic performance to the walls and sit flush when installed. The hardware features chrome-plated hinges with a cam rise mechanism to ensure proper seating of the door and ease of closing. A 1” (25mm) door pull handle is included for ease of operation and ADA compliance. Door windows ranging from small to full size are available as an option. Alternate door sizes can also be accommodated.

Window

Observation windows are included, with a typical nominal size of 24” (610mm) in width and 30” (750mm) in height. They are fabricated from two layers of laminated safety glass set in an extruded PVC window frame. Alternate sizes are also available to accommodate specific requirements.

Electrical

All rooms come equipped with CSA-approved, pre-wired 120-volt recessed internal electrical, which includes both internal and external facing recessed hospital-grade duplex receptacles. Power is supplied via a power cord that can be connected to the customer’s 120-volt source, or the system may be hardwired upon request. For international customers, country-specific electric and cord configurations are available, with a 240-volt option also available.

Jack Panels

All rooms and suites, including single and double walls, are fitted with jack panels. Standard jack panels come with twelve .25” (6.3mm) phone jacks, two USB connections, and one 1” (25mm) diameter pass-thru. Non-standard configurations can also be provided to meet unique or specific jack requirements.

Finish

Standard finish is textured polyurethane enamel in Linear White, Lux White, Beige or Warm Grey; other colors available on request.

Ceiling Integrated Silencer Systems

The integrated silenced ventilation system comprises factory-installed exhaust fans and a passive intake airflow, which operates quietly and has low power consumption. Optional vent collars are available for customers who wish to connect their existing HVAC system.
