Puretone To Introduce ESP II With
PureFit NOAH Software
Puretone Plc are pleased to announce the forthcoming
launch of their digitally programmable ESP II range of hearing
instruments. The ESP range provides flexible first time fittings and
incorporates Wide Dynamic Range Compression, allowing quieter sounds to be
heard, but having little gain at high sound levels where the hearing impaired
do not generally require amplification. This has two benefits. Firstly, it
provides the listener with a comfortable sound level at all times; secondly,
the compression keeps the signal at a reasonable level and prevents the
instrument from going into distortion, far beyond the point where linear
instruments would do. The ESP range features two independent, fully
adjustable channels, which allow the instrument to be programmed to suit the
hearing loss as accurately as possible. Until now, this set-up was carried out
at Puretone's Rochester based factory, but the introduction of ESP II
changes this. Equipped with a NOAH fitting foundation, PureFit module
and NOAH HiPro box, the hearing professional can programme the instrument
"In-The-Field" with a single, automatic operation. With the user
wearing the hearing instrument and providing verbal feedback, the instrument
can be tailored to exact requirements first time, every time.
Another introduction to the range is the ESP
'P', providing true PP power to both ESP & ESP II models. Available in
Full Concha (Wonder Ear) and BTE models, the instrument will have the facility
for four memories, to allow the user to further maximise the potential of the
ESP range of devices.
Among the new additions to Puretone's accessory range
this month are:
PureClean, a hearing aid cleansing spray
designed to remove wax. The 75ml aerosol also has an integral brush to maximise
efficiency. Cat. No: ACC309
PureGuard disposible waxguards. Supplied in
packs of 15 and available in red or blue, these waxguards can easily be fitted
by the user, using the fitting tool provided. Cat. No: ACC315A (blue) ACC315B
(red)
A handy, keyring-sized Digital Battery Tester
is now available, suitable for all types of hearing aid battery. Cat. No:
ACC227D
