It is necessary to wear hearing protectors when the noise level in the workplace exceeds 85 decibels or DBA.

The effectiveness of hearing protection is significantly reduced if the protectors are not properly adjusted, are only worn intermittently, or are removed even for a short period.

Moreover, to maximize the effectiveness of the earmuffs, it can be helpful to slightly warm them up in cold environments before wearing them. The soft cushions, when exposed to low temperatures, can become stiff and reduce the seal around the ears. By leaving them for a few minutes at room temperature or near a moderate heat source, such as a radiator, they regain their flexibility and ensure optimal insulation.

The 3M behind-the-neck earmuffs model H7B Optime 101 deliver effective hearing protection with a noise reduction capacity of 26 dB, catering to the needs of professionals working in high-noise environments. Designed to be worn behind the head, they are particularly suited for situations requiring simultaneous use of helmets or other safety gear. Their ergonomic design ensures a comfortable fit while minimizing pressure points, enabling prolonged use without discomfort.

Application:
For effective and safe use of the earmuffs, it’s crucial to position them properly behind the head so they fully cover the ears. Ensuring a precise fit provides optimal noise insulation while preventing misalignment that could reduce their effectiveness. The fit should remain comfortable without creating excessive pressure points, even during extended wear. Handling the equipment gently is also key to preserving the integrity of the cushions and the adjustment mechanism.

Maintenance and service life: 
To ensure the longevity of the earmuffs, it’s advisable to store them in a dry, clean environment, away from humidity and extreme temperatures. Keeping them in a closed container or designated space helps protect them from dust and impacts. Maintenance involves regularly cleaning them with a soft, slightly damp cloth, avoiding abrasive chemical products to preserve their condition. If any visible wear appears on the cushions or other components, replacing them is crucial to maintain acoustic efficiency and comfort.

Sylprotec reminder:
To protect your ears, several options are available depending on your needs. Noise-canceling earmuffs are perfectly suited for industrial or very noisy environments, providing effective protection against intense sounds. Their ease of use is an advantage, as they can be put on and taken off easily without handling small components.

On the other hand, earplugs are a more discreet option, ideal for daily use, such as sleeping or studying. They may be more comfortable for long durations and are especially suitable for individuals who already wear glasses or a helmet, as they avoid additional pressure. The choice between the two ultimately depends on your preferences and the context in which you use them.

However, it is essential to always follow safety guidelines and usage instructions to prevent any risk of injury or hearing damage. Take good care of your ears. They are irreplaceable!
