Abstract (en)

The present invention refers to a receiver module (21 T) of a hearing device (10). The receiver module is adapted for insertion into a canal element (22) of the hearing device which further comprises a circuit module (11). The canal element is to be arranged in a user's ear canal and defines a closed portion of the user's ear canal between the canal element and the user's eardrum. The receiver module comprises a sensor (50) arranged at a distal end (25) of the receiver module for sensing acoustical conditions (sound signals) in the closed portion of the user's ear canal and generating corresponding detection signals which are subject to a predetermined processing by said circuit module, a connector (12) for communicating said detection signals to said circuit module, and fastening elements (24, 27) for removably fixing said receiver module in said canal element.
