Hearing protectors – General requirements Part 1: Earmuffs
Description
This standard for ”Hearing Protectors – General requirements – Ear-muffs”, sets requirements for personal hearing protection devices in relation to Directive 89/686/EEC – Personal Protective Equipment. The particular requirement in relation to the ability of hearing protectors to reduce noise below daily limit levels is addressed in the standard by requiring the sound attenuation of the hearing protectors, measured in accordance with EN 24869-1, to be not less than a specified minimum. Further, by requiring that the measured sound attenuation be declared, the selection of suitable hearing protectors for individual circumstances may be
undertaken according to established practice.
