22 dB NOISE REDUCTION RATING: Over-the-head hearing protection with NRR of 22 dB for low to moderate noise exposures*
ADVANCED TECHNOLOGIES: New innovative foam earcup inserts and spacers help improve attenuation along with new ear cushion foam technology for an effective acoustic seal and reliable protection
COMFORTABLE: Wide, soft foam ear cushions and earcup tilting pivot points designed for high comfort and an effective acoustic seal with the head
EXTENDED COMFORT: Internal stainless steel wire in headband helps maintain consistent force over an 8-hour period for extended comfort. Twin headband design helps reduce heat buildup
DURABLE: ABS plastic cups create a rigid, high-strength and impact-resistant earmuff to handle tough environments.
DIELECTRIC HEADBAND: Electrically-insulated headband with no exposed wires helps provide protection from low voltage electrical hazards
REPLACEABLE CUSHIONS and inserts help keep them clean: 3M PELTOR HYX1 Hygiene Kit.
For industrial/occupational use only. Not for consumer sale or use
The X-Series earmuffs are 3M’s latest advancement in hearing conservation. New technologies in comfort, design and protection all come together in this groundbreaking earmuff line. The X1A is a lightweight, low-profile earmuff designed for protection against low-level industrial noise and other loud sounds. It features an electrically insulated wire headband, often referred to as “dielectric”. - The wire headband offers consistent pressure over prolonged wearing periods - Earcup pivot points tilt for optimum comfort and efficiency - Replaceable ear cushions and foam liners (hygiene kit HYX1) - Noise Reduction Rating (NRR)b 22 dB. CSA Class A NOTE: The X-Series (over-the-head) headband version is electrically insulated -sometimes referred to as ”dielectric”. The metal components of the headband have been covered by non-conductive material for use in a low voltage electrical hazard (less than 440 V ac). As there are no applicable standards for testing ear muffs against electrical insulating properties, the product has been evaluated at an external laboratory against a modified test method based on EN397:1995. During assessment, the leakage current did not exceed 1.2mA when the external surface of the product made contact with an electrical source. The user must determine the overall suitability of this product for the intended application taking into account any hazards other than noise for which this product is tested. *The NRR may overestimate the hearing protection provided during typical use. 3M recommends reducing the NRR by 50% for estimating the amount of noise reduction provided.
