14、International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and

15、electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical comm

16、ittees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization fo

The properties o

29、f these hydrophones have been dealt with in a number of IEC standards in various aspects. The purpose of this part of IEC 62127 is to bring together all these specifications and to establish a common standard on the properties of ultrasonic hydrophones. The main hydrophone application in this contex

30、t is the measurement of ultrasonic fields emitted by medical diagnostic equipment in water. Other medical applications are field measurements for therapy equipment such as that used in lithotripsy, high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) and physiotherapy. Hydrophones are also used extensively in n

31、on-medical applications for both product development and quality control including: mapping of the ultrasound field within ultrasonic cleaning baths; characterization of acoustic fields used in transmission measurement systems (e.g. ultrasonic spectrometers, ultrasonic attenuation meters and velocim

32、eters); characterization of acoustic fields used in reflection measurement systems (e.g. Doppler flowmeters). While the term “hydrophone“ can be used in a wider sense, it is understood here as referring to miniature piezoelectric hydrophones. It is this instrument type that is used today in various

33、areas of ultrasonics and, in particular, to quantitatively characterize the field structure of medical diagnostic instruments. With regard to other pressure sensor types, such as those based on fibre optics, some of the requirements of this standard are applicable to these as well but others are not

34、 If in the future these other “hydrophone“ types gain more importance in field measurement practice, their properties will have to be dealt with in a revised version of this standard or in a separate one. Underwater hydrophones as covered by IEC 60500 and IEC 60565 are not included in this standard

35、 although there is an overlap in the frequency ranges. Underwater hydrophones are used in natural waters, even in the ocean, and this leads to different technical concepts and requirements. In addition, the main direction of acoustic incidence in underwater applications is typically at right angles

36、 to the hydrophone axis, whereas it is assumed in this standard that it is in the direction of the hydrophone axis. In the past, ultrasonic hydrophones have been applied almost exclusively as amplitude sensors. At present a change can be seen and it is increasingly considered useful to have addition

37、al phase information, which, however, is only possible if the phase characteristics of the hydrophone have been determined during calibration. In this standard, therefore, requirements are specified for the amplitude aspect of the hydrophone sensitivity, and recommendations are provided for the phas

38、e aspect, as an option to be considered. 6 62127-3 IEC:2007(E) ULTRASONICS HYDROPHONES Part 3: Properties of hydrophones for ultrasonic fields up to 40 MHz 1 Scope This part of IEC 62127 specifies relevant hydrophone characteristics. This standard is applicable to: hydrophones employing piezoelectri

39、c sensor elements, designed to measure the pulsed and continuous wave ultrasonic fields generated by ultrasonic equipment; hydrophones used for measurements made in water; hydrophones with or without an associated pre-amplifier. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispens
