Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the noise reduction rating (NRR) or SNR of these ear defenders?

These ear defenders offer a Standard Noise Reduction (SNR) of 35dB. They conform to EN352 standards.

How do I clean the DEWALT Ear Defenders?

You should only surface wipe them clean with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh cleaners or immersing them in water.

Are these ear defenders suitable for very young children?

These ear defenders are designed for adult use. While the headband is adjustable, they may not provide a secure or comfortable fit for children.

Can I wear these ear defenders with safety glasses?

Yes, they are generally compatible with most safety glasses. However, ensure that wearing both does not compromise the seal of the ear defenders or the comfort.

What does 'Conforms to EN352 standards' mean?

This means the ear defenders have been tested and meet the safety requirements set by European standards for hearing protective devices.

Are these ear defenders suitable for continuous use all day?

They are designed for comfort during extended wear due to their lightweight nature and padded headband. However, individual comfort may vary, and taking breaks is recommended for very long periods.

Troubleshooting

Ear defenders feel loose

Adjust the padded headband to a tighter setting. Ensure the earcups are positioned correctly to cover the ears fully.

Reduced noise reduction effectiveness

Check that the earcups are creating a proper seal around the ears. Ensure there are no gaps or damage to the cushions. Clean the earcups if they appear dirty.

Discomfort during extended wear

Readjust the headband for a less constrictive fit. Ensure the weight is distributed evenly. Take short breaks from wearing them if necessary.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Effective 35dB noise reduction for substantial hearing protection.
  • Lightweight and compact for comfortable, long-term wear.
  • Adjustable headband ensures a personalized and secure fit.
  • Meets important safety standards (EN352, CE 1974).

Cons

  • Requires surface wipe cleaning only, limiting deep cleaning options.
  • May not be suitable for specialized environments requiring extreme noise reduction levels beyond 35dB.
  • The compact design might feel restrictive for users with very large heads.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Adjust Headband: Gently pull the earcups apart or slide them down the headband to find the most comfortable and secure fit. Ensure the earcups fully cover your ears.
  2. Position Earcups: The cushions should rest snugly against your head, creating a seal around your ears.

Compatibility:

These ear defenders are designed for general adult use and are compatible with most head sizes due to the adjustable headband. They are suitable for a wide range of industrial and general noisy environments.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Surface wipe clean only using a slightly damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
  • Storage: Store in a clean, dry place when not in use to protect the cushions and headband.
