Environmental Awareness Earmuffs

Remain aware of important sounds while protecting your ears from damaging noises. These earmuffs have a microphone that amplifies nearby sounds, so you don’t have to remove them to hear machinery alerts or coworkers. Unlike other microphone-enabled hearing protection, this microphone won’t shut off once sound levels become unsafe. Instead, it keeps the volume safe so you can still hear. Bluetooth connectivity lets you accept phone calls or stream music from your phone or other devices. These earmuffs keep sound from calls or music at a safe volume to protect your hearing. A long-lasting battery powers them for up to 20 hours. If the battery dies, these earmuffs will still protect your hearing.

Earplug Fit Testing Systems

In a matter of minutes, confirm your earplugs deliver the right level of hearing protection. These kits help you meet OSHA standards for protection from excessive noise. Conduct the test onsite—everything you need, including a tablet with software already installed, is included. To use this kit, you will undergo a hearing test with and without your earplugs to determine the lowest volume you can hear. The system then calculates the difference between the scores and produces a personal attenuation rating (PAR).

Once the test is complete, you’ll receive a full report to help you choose the best earplugs. The results automatically upload to cloud storage and can be accessed on multiple devices.
