Contacta IL-K200 

"Under the counter" Loop Kit

The Contacta IL-K200 is part of the Contacta's "under-the-counter" loop kit systems. As the name already says, these are designed to be used under a counter or desk. It offers a discreet solution for people using hearing aid.An induction loop system is based on an ampfilier that converts speech or music, for example a microfoon, into magnetic pulses. These magnetic pulses are then transmitted through a induction loop. In the case of the IL-K220 and IL-K200 the loop is placed under a counter or desk. The hearing aid have a T-coil inside of them that can pick up these magnetic pulses and convert them back to sound.

Contacta IL-K200

The IL-K200 is used in particular at banks, city halls, airfields and, for example, information centres. It concerns situations where a conversation takes place at a counter or desk. In addition, it often involves locations where the speech intelligibility of the conversation needs to be guaranteed and/or where there is a lot of ambient noise present.The IL-K200 is a complete induction loop system for counters and consists of the following components:

• The Contacta HLD2 amplifier
• A boundary (mouse) microphone
• Hearing loop aerial
• Power supply
• Fixings

The system has voice detection so it automatically switches on and off when a conversation starts or ends. In addition, the Automatic Gain Control (AGC) ensures that a constant signal strength is provided which contributes to an optimum hearing performance.

Operation and installation

The IL-K200 can be discreetly put under the counter or a desk. The system has speech detection, which means that it does not have to be operated when someone with a hearing problem comes to the counter. The HLD2 itself is easy to configure. The buttons on the front are 3 colour LEDs that indicate power, input and output diagnostic information.The included aerial loop is flexible and can easily be properly secured under the counter or the desk. Optionally, the boundary (mouse) microphone can be replaced by a halo standing microphone with noise cancelling. This makes it the Contacta IL-K220 kit.
