4 Optime Alert System Choosing the correct hearing protection for your needs can be difficult; the hearing protectors should neither over nor under protect the user. With his in mind E.A.R and Peltor have devised an easy to-use selection system that aids the correct choice of protection for the noise level. Our system uses a simple, logically coloured classification to make the selection process easy. Firstly find out what your noise level is, then look at the icons below and establish which noise band (RNR) your noise level falls into. Take note of the icon and choose from the wide range of products featuring the correct icon. *RNR = Recommended Noise Rating RNR* < 85dB You do not have to wear hearing protection, but make it available to your workers. 83 db(a) - 93 db(a) You are above the level, hearing protection is compulsary. 87 db(a) - 98 db(a) You are above the level, hearing protection is compulsary. Ideal for high frequency noise. 94dB(A) - 105dB(A) You are above the level hearing protection is compulsary. Ideal for high and medium frequency noise. 95 db(a) db(a) You are above the level, hearing protection is compulsary. Ideal for all frequencies. PLEASE NOTE: At levels above 95dB you will need an accurate noise assesment to correctly select the product. Green and Yellow marked products are not suitable for use in low frequency noise. 3

5 Sound Check Meter E A R and Peltor have also developed a simple sound level indicator that complements the Optime Alert System by establishing which colour code you need to follow. You simply deploy the meter at the employees work station let it run until the display has stabilised, this then indicates the average noise level in that area and the type of protection required. Supplied with: UK Power Supply Euro Power Supply Code Optime-sound-metuk Optime-sound-meter Step by step guide 1. Using the Sound Check Method If you are using the Sound Check Meter all you have to do is match up the coloured display with the correct icon, this icon should be ehibited on the hearing protection. 2. Using your own noise level measurement If you are using your own measurement or a measurement taken by another competent person then you simply look at the Optime Alert System on the left and identify which RNR - Recommended Noise Rating your level falls under and record the icon. 3. Selecting the correct hearing protection By now you will know which Optime Alert icon relates to your noise level, simply choose from the selection of products diplaying the corresponding icon. = = Eample of how the system works 4

24 PTL - Push To Listen Push the button - and just listen Peltor presents a whole new series of passive hearing protectors with a manual listening function. The design is as simple as it is ingenious. With the press of a button on the shell, you can reduce attenuation so you can listen to speech. This solves the age-old problem at workplaces that require etremely powerful passive hearing protectors: to communicate with colleagues, many choose to epose one ear or remove the hearing protectors completely to hear. The risk of hearing impairment increases with the eposure time. Increased wearer time more safety! When workers eposed to harmful noise need to communicate, they lift their cups and they lower their protection. The Peltor Optime Push To Listen means no more cup lifting. The Peltor Optime Push To Listen is an Electronicpassive muff it has one passive side and one electronic side. Simply push the button to listen, opening up the ear defender for communication. The electronic function automatically shuts off after 30 sec. Possible to close earlier if needed.

29 Types Of Hearing Protection Choosing the correct hearing protection is paramount to a successful hearing conservation programme. If you offer just one type of device it will not suit all workers and you are more likely to get some workers not wearing their hearing protection. However if you consult with your workers over the choice of hearing protection and offer a choice, for eample a foam earplug, a banded hearing protector and an earmuff, compliance will improve. Ownership and participation will strengthen implementation. Disposable Foam Earplugs Roll down earplugs, made from epandable slow-recovery foam, provide the best combination of comfort and protection for most users. One size fits most. Once in the ear, foam plugs epand to provide a snug and secure custom fit. E.A.R offers a wide range of disposable earplugs, from the famous Yellow Classic earplug through to sophisticated shaped options such as the E.A.Rsoft Grippers. Pod Plugs Pod earplugs are so easy to use they practically insert themselves. There is no roll needed, just use the soft fleible grip to push the earplug into position and achieve ecellent protection. Because you do not have to touch the foam during fitting it is one of the most hygienic types of earplug available. Take a look at the disposable Push-In earplug or for a reusable option try out the Epress earplug. Pre-moulded Earplugs Premolded plugs are made from fleible materials that are preformed to fit the ear. They are generally available with a joining cord to prevent loss. These reusable earplugs are comfortable, hygienic and economical. No sizing is required for these patented, pre-moulded, triple flange earplugs. Available in a variety of styles and protection levels. Banded Banded hearing protectors and easy to use, convenient and etremely comfortable. They are quick to put on and off and to store around the neck when not required making them ideal for intermittent use. They are so easy to fit, it s very difficult to fit these products incorrectly so you ca be confident that your workers are receiving the right level of protection. Most models are available with spare pods making them an economical option. Passive Earmuffs Earmuffs consist of rigid cups with soft plastic cushions that seal around the ears to block noise. They are a popular choice in hearing protection due to their ease of use and ability to effortlessly check that workers are wearing their hearing protection. They are available in headband, neckband, helmet-attachable and folding models to meet virtually every application need and wearer preference. Communication Earmuffs Peltor s communication earmuffs make it possible for users of hearing protectors to communicate very effectively with their immediate environment and with people further away. Communication with people around you involves our activevolume function and intercom systems. For longer distances, you have communication radios, DECT and mobile phones. All communication options can also be combined with a sound system such as an FM radio. 28

30 Hearing Protection Use and Care Roll Down Earplugs How to use Slowly roll and compress foam earplugs into a very thin cylinder. While compressed, insert the earplug well into the ear canal. Fitting is easier if you reach around the head to pull the ear outward and upward during insertion. Pre Moulded Earplugs Reach around the back of your head and pull outward on the ear while inserting the plug until you feel it sealing. This may seem tight at first, especially if you have never worn earplugs. Banded Earplugs Hold the large ends of the pods and swivel them to direct the tips into the ear canal openings. Firmly push and wiggle the pods into the ear canal until a snug seal is obtained. Pulling on the outer ear while pushing the pods will be helpful to most wearers. Earmuffs Earmuffs must fully enclose the ears to seal against the head. Adjust the headband so cushions eert even pressure around the ears to get the best noise reduction. Pull hair back and out from beneath the cushions. Do not wear caps, store pencils behind the ear or anything that may break the seal. 29

31 Hearing Protection Use and Care Roll Down Earplugs Care and cleaning Keep the earplugs clean and free from material that can irritate the ear canal. They may be washed in mild liquid detergent and warm water. Squeeze ecess water from the plugs and air dry. Washing may be repeated several times. Discard the earplugs if they noticeably change their firmness or do not re-epand to their original size and shape. Pre Moulded Earplugs Pre-moulded earplugs will normally last several months or more depending on the type and on your work environment, hygiene and body chemistry. They should be replaced if they shrink, harden tear, crack or become permanently deformed. Wash them in warm soapy water and rinse well. When dry, store them in a carrying case. Banded Earplugs Most semi-aurals can be cleaned in the same way as pre-moulded earplugs. Since the headband holds the tips in place to provide an acoustic seal, do not tamper with it or the protection the device provides may be reduced. Earmuffs Cushions can be cleaned with warm soapy water and rinsed thoroughly. Do not use alcohol or solvents. Cushions normally need replacing twice a year or more whenever they become stiff, cracked, or do not seal. Do not modify earmuffs in any way, and especially do not stretch or abuse the headband as this will reduce protection. 30
