Strong against low-frequency noise too
Low-frequency noise, for example from piston compressors, excavators or blasting plants, is hard to attenuate. With L 23 dB, the EP902 attenuates it more strongly than anything else in the range. Together with H 34 and M 31 dB, it is the all-rounder for very noisy workplaces.
At 260 g it is also the heaviest earmuff in the series. For long wearing times at moderate levels, take a look at the lighter EP905 at 151 g.
Care and shelf life
Clean the cushions and foam pads after each use with mild soap and water or alcohol wipes and leave them to air-dry. Unopened, the hearing protector keeps for five years from manufacture according to the user instructions.
Correct use in four steps
- 01
Open the cups
Pull the cups outwards and place them over the ears.
- 02
Enclose the ears
The cushions must completely enclose the ears and sit tightly against the head. Hair, caps or spectacle arms disturb the seal.
- 03
Adjust the height
Adjust the height of both cups until the fit is firm and comfortable. The headband sits straight on the head.
- 04
Clean
After use, clean cushions and foam pads with mild soap and water or alcohol wipes and leave them to air-dry.
