Hearing Protection Earmuffs

But hearing protectors are also very useful in airports, power plants, marine engine rooms, printing presses, road construction, music events, concert halls, mining, agricultural machinery, transport and construction. But nowadays, we not only have hearing protectors for adults, we can also buy hearing protectors for our children. Our children can use these useful earmuffs at events such as car races.

The ideal use of hearing protectors

The effectiveness of hearing protection can be greatly reduced if it is not properly fitted to the consumer's ear, has sub-optimal insulation or is not ideal for the job. To maintain effectiveness, the fit and comfort of the case is therefore of paramount importance, as poor quality hearing protectors can easily become uncomfortable during a shift lasting several hours. However, it is important to note that if hearing protection is removed for even short periods during work, protection is significantly reduced!

In all cases, manufacturers provide sufficient information on the correct use of hearing protectors, so it is advisable to find out more about the conditions of use for the product before installing the ear protector. However, many people think that they cannot wear a cap or a safety helmet when using the earmuffs. This is a huge mistake. Because professional hearing protectors are suitable to be worn with a headband, neckband or helmet.

How to choose the optimal hearing protection earpiece?

To ensure complete safety, it is essential to choose the right earpiece for the application. Each type of ear protection has a so-called noise reduction rating, which indicates how much noise is reduced before it reaches the individual's ears. The degree of attenuation is therefore an important consideration when choosing hearing protectors, but the weight, quality and depth of the case should also be taken into account.

We also need to take into account the place of work, as a different case is recommended for a room with high humidity, for example, rather than an industrial plant where the air temperature is constant. In addition to the type of use, it is also advisable to determine the duration of use, as different hearing protectors are recommended for short periods of intense work or for long periods of work at a constant noise level.

Which brands of hearing protection earmuffs are available in the DND Telecom webshop?

The 3M Peltor brand earmuffs are filled with a unique combination of foam and liquid to provide optimal insulation and low contact pressure. In addition, the brand's proprietary dual-shell technology minimises the effect of resonance. What's more, the brand's earmuffs are very lightweight, making them comfortable to wear.

In addition, the large space inside the ear cups helps minimize heat and moisture buildup.The 3M Peltor X Series hearing protectors, along with Optime headsets, are the right choice for both short and long term use.

The light weight makes them comfortable to wear for extended periods of time. But how do we choose the right earpiece for us? Different model numbers mean headsets with increasing noise attenuation values. Directive 2003/10/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council on physical agents (noise) obliges employers to provide workers with appropriate hearing protection if the noise exposure limit exceeds 80dB(A)

.

If the noise exposure limit value is equal to or higher than 85dB(A), the worker must wear hearing protectors for 100% of the time spent in a noisy environment. If the brand's earmuffs are used regularly, sooner or later the pads and inserts will inevitably wear out. These can be easily replaced to ensure everything is perfect and hygienic again.

Why choose 3M Peltor ear muffs?

Perhaps one of the most important reasons to choose 3M Peltor hearing protection is that the brand's earmuffs have been protecting workers' hearing for over 70 years. In addition, the brand has a very wide range of products. Whether you need a high-performance ear or a version with medium to low noise attenuation. And don't worry about 3M Peltor earmuffs not looking good.

On the one hand, our health and hearing are more important than that, and on the other, any product from the brand has a modern, attractive, streamlined look. But if you use one of these earmuffs, you won't get bored while you're working, because you can choose one with a built-in transceiver or radio. But you can also use an ATEX explosion-proof earpiece, which also has a built-in radio transmitter and receiver. We can even buy a hearing protector with a 3M Peltor headset. This allows hassle-free wireless communication even in noisy environments.
