Meets EN 352-1 Safety Standards for Reliable Protection
The safety standard EN 352-1 SNR 28dB refers to European standard specifications for ear defenders, which are designed to protect users' ears from excessive noise levels. Here's what each part of the specification means:
- EN 352-1: This is the European standard number for hearing protection devices. It specifies the requirements for hearing protectors
- SNR: This stands for Single Number Rating and is a measure of the overall noise reduction provided by the ear defenders. It represents the average amount of noise reduction across different frequencies and is expressed in decibels (dB)
- 28dB: This is the specific noise reduction rating (NR) in decibels provided by the ear defenders when worn correctly. It indicates how much the ear defenders reduce the overall noise level reaching the wearer's ears
In summary, EN 352-1 SNR 28dB signifies that the ear defenders meet the European standard requirements for hearing protection, and when properly worn, they can reduce the overall noise level by an average of 28 decibels.
