Portable Induction Loop System
Portable Induction Loop System (AFILS) At a Glance
A portable induction loop system is a compact, self contained assistive listening solution that provides instant hearing-aid-compatible audio coverage in any temporary or changing location. Ideal for reception desks, service counters, interview rooms, mobile clinics, home visits, portable kiosks, pop-up events, or situations where a fixed installation is impractical or impossible.
Key components (supplied in a rugged carry case)
Battery or mains-powered portable loop amplifier
Integrated or detachable countertop/perimeter loop mat (typically 1–3 m² coverage) or short-throw loop pad
Built-in or clip-on microphone
Clear “Hearing Loop in Use” signage and test receiver
The system generates the same standardised magnetic field as fixed installations, allowing telecoil equipped hearing aids and cochlear implants to receive crystal-clear, personalised sound directly from the speaker’s microphone.
Advantages & Benefits
Instant Deployment Set up in under one minute; no installation, drilling, or wiring required.
True Portability Lightweight (usually <2 kg) and battery operation (8–12 hours typical) for use anywhere.
Full Legal Compliance Meets Equality Act 2010 counter/service-point requirements and IEC 60118-4 performance standards wherever it is placed.
Superior Clarity & Privacy Direct-to-face conversations remain confidential while background noise is eliminated for the hearing-aid user.
Zero Management Overhead No receivers to issue, charge, sanitise, or lose; works automatically with the user’s own hearing aid.
Cost-Effective Accessibility Ideal for organisations with multiple sites, occasional needs, or budget/timeline constraints that prevent fixed loops.
Universal & Unlimited Use Supports every telecoil user simultaneously without additional equipment.
Discreet & Dignified Counter mats or pads are unobtrusive; users experience the assistance invisibly.
Portable systems are the perfect “quick win” accessibility solution for pharmacies, banks, GP surgeries, job centres, visitor attractions, and any customer facing service point.
