High levels of noise pollution are the order of the day in industry and construction, and there are numerous working environments with constantly changing noise levels. A major problem that is often not sufficiently considered: If hearing protection products with excessive insulation are used, users are also cut off from important ambient noise and from communicating with their employees. This means that important communication can no longer take place or that the habit creeps in of removing the hearing protection and the required protection is no longer maintained.
Modern technologies can address this problem by specifically filtering noise and transmitting speech and warning signals to the ear.
Hear Through-Technologie
The so-called Hear Throughtechnology offers the possibility of “switching on” ambient noise. The integrated directional microphone captures this and transmits it to the loudspeakers in the hearing protection. For use in occupational safety, it is crucial that the hearing protection offers sufficient protection against noise that can damage hearing and at the same time allows warning signals to pass through.
Honeywell Innovative Product – Yes, It’s Real Hearing Protection!
Honeywell hat seine Hear Throughtechnology, which is already used in various hearing protection capsules, built into an in-ear hearing protection that is unique on the market: the noise reduction with the new electronic plug hearing protection Impact In-Ear PRO is adjustable in six steps. The in-ear hearing protection not only meets the requirements of today’s generation in terms of design, but also expands the practical use with integrated Bluetooth. The plugs are available in three sizes and two materials for the perfect fit of modern hearing protection. The hearing protection will soon be available in three colors: orange, black and blue (detectable) for the food industry.
