Features
- Pack of 50 pairs corded foam earplugs
- Highest attenuation levels
- Slow recovery PVC foam provides all day comfort
- Shape equalises pressure throughout the ear canal as it expands, prevents shifting and keeps effectiveness of noise seal constant
- Non-irritating and moisture resistant
- May be worn with earmuffs for added protection
- Comfortable, hygienic, non-irritating and reusable
- No rolldown or sizing is required for these premoulded triple flange plugs
- With carry case
Instructions For Use
While pulling the ear upward, insert the plug until the ear feels sealed. Adjust for greatest noise reduction.
Fit can be tested in the presence of a steady noise by alternately covering and uncovering the ears with tightly cupped hands. With properly fitted plugs, noise should seem nearly the same whether or not the ears are covered.
CAUTION
Remove slowly with twisting motion to gradually break the seal. Rapid removal may damage eardrum.
Care and Cleaning:
Plugs should be routinely washed with mild soap and warm water. Regularly examine the plugs for tears or cracks under any of the three flanges. Replace if necessary.

Hearing protector class 3 tested to AS/NZS 1270:2002. When selected, used and maintained as specified in AS/NZS 1269.3:2005, this protector may be used in noise up to 100 dB(A) assuming on 85 dB(A) criterion. A lower criterion may require a higher protector class.
Improper fit of this device will reduce its effectiveness in attenuating noise. Consult the fitting instructions illustrated on this dispenser.
The OPTIME CLASS RATING is a guideline for the maximum time-weighted average A-weighted exposures in which the product, when properly worn and in good condition, can provide adequate protection to meet AS/NZS 1269.3:2005 Occupational Noise Management. However the user must make sure that the specific hearing protector selected provides appropriate protection. To be effective, the hearing protector should be used within a hearing conservation program that also includes noise level assessments by qualified personnel, training, audiometric testing and engineering controls. OPTIME recommendations are based upon testing per AS/NZS 1270:2002. This method provides data that approximate the upper limits to attenuation that can be expected for groups of occupational users. Properly trained and motivated individuals can potentially obtain greater protection. The OPTIME CLASS RATINGS are the same as those in Table E1 of AS/NZS 1269.3:2005. This simplified system is based on certain assumptions and approximations. If you have any doubts about the applicability of the classification system either consult someone more experienced or refer to Appendix A of AS/NZS 1269.3:2005.

40 CFR PART 211
SUBPART B |
The EPA has selected the NRR as the measure of a hearing protector’s noise reducing capabilities. Aearo Company makes no warranties as to the suitability of the NRR as a measure of actual workplace protection since such protection is highly dependent of user training, motivation, and utiliztion. A better estimate of workplace protection can be obtained by derating the labeled NRR of this, or any other hearing protector, by 50%.
