Noise Reduction
This Firecom Headset provides 24dB noise attenuation when properly fitted. Any
modification to the Headset will reduce the Headset performance and hearing
damage could occur. Always wear hearing protector in areas that have been
identified as high noise locations.
Federal law requires the following statements:
“Although hearing protectors can be recommended for protection against the
harmful effects of impulsive noise, the Noise Reduction Rating (NRR) is based on
the attenuation of continuous noise and may not be an accurate indicator of the
protection attainable against impulsive noise such as gunfire.”
“The level of noise entering a person’s ear, when a hearing protector is worn as
directed, is closely approximated by the difference between the A-weighted
environmental noise level and the NRR.”
Example
1. The environmental noise level as measured at the ear is 92dBA.
2. The NRR is 24dB.
3. The level of noise entering the ear is approximately equal to 92dBA – NRR or 68dB.
“For noise environments dominated by frequencies below 500 Hz, the
C- weighted environmental noise level should be used.”
