Description

  • Protection level 3 for high to very high noise
  • Best choice for low frequency noise
  • Approved with most popular safety helmets

The helmet mounted earmuff is the ideal choice for any work that requires head and hearing protection. Its durable construction withstands rough environments and the slim design reduces the risk of snagging in branches or confined areas. Protection level 3 is suitable for high to very high noise levels, between 100-115 dB. Fortunatly a rare environment for most workers, but the best and only choice when nothing else will do. Protection level 3 is also the best choice when the noise is dominated by low frequencies, a type of noise that masks out speech and other important sounds as well as causing stress and nausia.

Features

Helmet mounted

Helmet attachment arms with a strong steel spring mechanism, lasting more than 10 000 oscillations which represents normal use of at least 5 years. No exposed metal parts for non-conductivity.

Three wearing positions

Park the hearing protector on the rear of the helmet when not in use, put them in stand-by position slightly off the ears, and push them inwards into working position covering the ears.

Approved with most popular helmets

Hellberg's helmet-mounted hearing protectors are all approved in combination with most popular safety helmets on the market – more than 45 different models. Always make sure your combination is tested and approved before you combine personal protective equipment.

Replaceable cushions with "snap-in" system

Comfortable cushions with minimal sweat retention and soft foam filling increases comfort. The snap-in system enables regular replacement for a long-lasting and hygienic product with high performance.

Integration with face protection

The unique visor integration allows you to combine any of Hellberg's hearing protectors with face protection.

Noise Protection Level

Hellberg hearing protectors are divided into three noise protection levels, ranging from low to high noise protection. These are clearly indicated with bright safety colours for easy identification and selection.

Key certifications:

SLC80 31dB

This hearing protection product complies with the Australia/New Zealand standard and has been tested in accordance with AS/NZS 1270.

It has an SLC80 rating of 31 (which in rough terms means it blocks about 31dB of noise) and is a Class 5 hearing protector.

  • Class 1: SLC80 10–13 - Suitable for <90 dB noise levels
  • Class 2: SLC80 14–17 - Suitable for <90-95 dB noise levels
  • Class 3: SLC80 18-21 - Suitable for <95-100 dB noise levels
  • Class 4: SLC80 22-25 - Suitable for <100-105 dB noise levels
  • Class 5: SLC80 ≥26 - Suitable for <105-110 dB noise levels

SLC80 Explained

Under AS/NZS 1270:2002, hearing protection is tested for its Sound Level Conversion (SLC80) rating, which indicates the difference between the environmental noise and the sound reaching the wearer’s ears. This rating helps determine the appropriate Class of hearing protection for specific noise levels.

Australian and New Zealand workplaces are obligated under AS/NZS 1269.3:2005 to:

  • Conduct noise level surveys to assess exposure (measured as LAeq,8h).
  • Provide suitable hearing protection for workers exposed to noise above 85 dB(A).
  • Ensure hearing protection is maintained and properly fitted to achieve effective attenuation.

Employers must select hearing protection suitable for the measured noise levels, ensuring compliance with occupational noise management regulations.

NRR 27

An NRR of 27 means that the hearing protection is estimated to reduce noise levels by an average of 27 decibels across various frequencies.

'NRR' in hearing protection stands for 'Noise Reduction Rating,' which is a single value used to indicate the average level of noise reduction a hearing protection device provides across different frequencies, essentially telling you how much sound attenuation the earplugs or earmuffs will offer when worn correctly; the higher the NRR value, the greater the noise reduction level is considered to be.

NRR is primarily used as a rating system in North America, while Europe often uses 'SNR' (Single Number Rating) and Australia/New Zealand use 'SLC80'; which both differ slightly in calculation.

SNR 31

An SNR of 31 means that the hearing protection is estimated to reduce noise levels by an average of 31 decibels across various frequencies.

'SNR' in hearing protection stands for 'Single Number Rating,' which is a single value used to indicate the average level of noise reduction a hearing protection device provides across different frequencies, essentially telling you how much sound attenuation the earplugs or earmuffs will offer when worn correctly; the higher the SNR value, the greater the noise reduction level is considered to be.

SNR is primarily used as a rating system in Europe, while North America often uses 'NRR' (Noise Reduction Rating) and Australia/New Zealand use 'SLC80'; which both differ slightly in calculation.

Product Care

Cleaning

  • Wipe the ear cups and headband with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and oils.
  • Avoid using harsh chemicals, bleach, or submerging the earmuffs in water, as this may damage the materials.
  • Allow the earmuffs to air dry completely before storing or reusing them.

Storage

  • Store the earmuffs in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
  • Use the original packaging or a protective case to prevent dust accumulation and physical damage when not in use.
  • Avoid placing heavy objects on top of the earmuffs to maintain their shape and effectiveness.
