| Abstract |
Results of tests carried out (for determining both comfort and efficiency) by the French National Research and Safety Institute (INRS) on 60 commercial models, and criteria for the choice of ear protectors in terms of noise characteristics and environmental requirements (protection against impact, speech communication). A selection of 12 ear protectors (1 helmet, 5 earmuffs, 6 earplugs) is presented in the form of diagrammatic data sheets. |
