Description

The HL400™AM dispensers for earplugs are designed to meet today’s safety needs. The turn knob and catch tray are treated with an antimicrobial additive, making earplug dispensing more hygienic. The antimicrobial additive releases slowly to reduce the bioburden on the turn knob. This way the product remains clean and does not require extra cleaning, thus, driving cost savings. This product does not protect users or others against disease-causing organisms.

  • Comes pre-filled with 400 pairs of Max Lite Ear Plugs (SLC80 25dB, Class 4)
  • Easy to use — workers can access earplugs quickly with easy twist knob
  • Compatible with all Howard Leight™ disposable earplugs MAXIMUM, MAXIMUM Lite, Laser Lite®, 303L, 303S, FirmFit®, and Xtreme®
  • Easy to install — Universal hole positions eliminate the need to drill new holes and can be placed on flat surfaces
  • Durable, recyclable plastic canister — with multiple refill options:

1) Most economical: refill the empty canister as needed with a traditional 200 pair refill zip-top bag.
2) Replace the empty canister with another 400 pair prefilled canister.

Key certifications:

SLC80 25dB

This hearing protection product complies with the Australia/New Zealand standard and has been tested in accordance with AS/NZS 1270.

It has an SLC80 rating of 25 (which in rough terms means it blocks about 25dB of noise) and is a Class 5 hearing protector.

  • Class 1: SLC80 10–13 - Suitable for <90 dB noise levels
  • Class 2: SLC80 14–17 - Suitable for <90-95 dB noise levels
  • Class 3: SLC80 18-21 - Suitable for <95-100 dB noise levels
  • Class 4: SLC80 22-25 - Suitable for <100-105 dB noise levels
  • Class 5: SLC80 ≥26 - Suitable for <105-110 dB noise levels

SLC80 Explained

Under AS/NZS 1270:2002, hearing protection is tested for its Sound Level Conversion (SLC80) rating, which indicates the difference between the environmental noise and the sound reaching the wearer’s ears. This rating helps determine the appropriate Class of hearing protection for specific noise levels.

Australian and New Zealand workplaces are obligated under AS/NZS 1269.3:2005 to:

  • Conduct noise level surveys to assess exposure (measured as LAeq,8h).
  • Provide suitable hearing protection for workers exposed to noise above 85 dB(A).
  • Ensure hearing protection is maintained and properly fitted to achieve effective attenuation.

Employers must select hearing protection suitable for the measured noise levels, ensuring compliance with occupational noise management regulations.

NRR 30

An NRR of 30 means that the hearing protection is estimated to reduce noise levels by an average of 30 decibels across various frequencies.

'NRR' in hearing protection stands for 'Noise Reduction Rating,' which is a single value used to indicate the average level of noise reduction a hearing protection device provides across different frequencies, essentially telling you how much sound attenuation the earplugs or earmuffs will offer when worn correctly; the higher the NRR value, the greater the noise reduction level is considered to be.

NRR is primarily used as a rating system in North America, while Europe often uses 'SNR' (Single Number Rating) and Australia/New Zealand use 'SLC80'; which both differ slightly in calculation.

SNR 34

An SNR of 34 means that the hearing protection is estimated to reduce noise levels by an average of 34 decibels across various frequencies.

'SNR' in hearing protection stands for 'Single Number Rating,' which is a single value used to indicate the average level of noise reduction a hearing protection device provides across different frequencies, essentially telling you how much sound attenuation the earplugs or earmuffs will offer when worn correctly; the higher the SNR value, the greater the noise reduction level is considered to be.

SNR is primarily used as a rating system in Europe, while North America often uses 'NRR' (Noise Reduction Rating) and Australia/New Zealand use 'SLC80'; which both differ slightly in calculation.
