Power Efficient

MED-EL’s patented power-efficient technology provides an
exceptionally long battery life – without sacrificing performance.

Water protection of MED-EL speech processors

To minimize the effects of moisture on electronic components, the circuit boards used in MED-EL speech processors are uniquely coated to effectively shield the electronic components. Additionally, MED-EL employs connectors that are treated with specially developed water repellent lubricants. Our optimized device housing is designed to act as a barrier to fluids and water vapour but is not hermetically sealed – this prevents corrosion much more effectively, as it allows any internal moisture to dry out rather than remain trapped inside.

These measures represent the most effective solution available today for protection of speech processors from moisture related damage.
