    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    IEC 60500:2017 specifies the relevant characteristics and properties of hydrophones in the frequency range 1 Hz to 500 kHz, and specifies how to report these characteristics. Provides guidance on the choice of a hydrophone with appropriate performance for a specific application. This standard is applicable to:
    - hydrophones employing piezoelectric sensor elements, designed to respond to sound pressure in water and measure underwater acoustical signals;
    - hydrophones with or without an integral pre-amplifier.
    This new edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
    - the format and scope of IEC 60500 have been changed to be compatible with other IEC standards;
    - the upper limit of the frequency range of hydrophones has been expanded.
