- Agricultural
- Pharmaceutical
- Utilities
- Metal processing
- Automotive
- Manufacturing
- Printing
- Foundry
- Heavy engineering
- Mining
- Engine rooms
- Textile manufacturing
What Is Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) and Noise Attenuation?
The SNR ratio of ear-protection indicates the amount by which background noise will be reduced, or attenuated. So if you work around machinery with a background noise of 100dB, then earplugs with an SNR of 32 will reduce the background noise to 68dB, protecting your ears. Some ear defenders will reduce the overall background noise by differing amounts depending on whether the noise is medium, low or high frequency.
How Comfortable Are the 3M Peltor X5P3E Hard Hat Ear Defenders?
Carefully moulded sliders ensure the earmuffs are easy to adjust when on the head. Wide, soft foam ear cushions help workers stay comfortable, while the slim cups offer improved compatibility with other safety equipment.
