CHULTRAFITDS Iss 1
The E-A-R™ UltraFit™ pre-formed earplugs have
been tested and CE approved against the European
Standard EN352-2:1993. These products meet the
Basic Safety Requirements as laid out in Annex II of
the European Community Directive 89/686/EEC and
have been examined at the design stage by INSPEC
International Limited, 56 Leslie Hough Way, Salford,
Greater Manchester M6 6AJ, UK (Notified Body
number 0194).
The E-A-R™ UltraFit™ earplugs are ideal for high to
moderate noise exposure levels, and are ideally suited
for all frequency noise in a wide range of industrial
workplaces and leisure environments. Examples of
typical applications include:
� Automotive
� Chemical & pharmaceutical manufacture
� Construction
� Heavy engineering
� Metal processing
� Textile manufacture
� Woodworking
The E-A-R™ UltraFit™ pre-moulded earplugs are
designed for insertion into the ear canal to help reduce
exposure to hazardous levels of noise and loud sound.
This product is available in corded and uncorded
versions.

Key
APVf (dB) = Mf – sf (dB)
Mf = Mean attenuation value
sf = Standard deviation
APVf = Assumed Protection Value
H = High-frequency attenuation value (predicted noise level reduction for noise with
L(C) – L(A) = -2dB)
M = Medium-frequency attenuation value (predicted noise level reduction for noise with
L(C) – L(A) = +2dB)
L = Low-frequency attenuation value (predicted noise level reduction for noise with
L(C) – L(A) = +10dB)
SNR = Single Number Rating (the value that is subtracted from the measured C-weighted
sound pressure level, L(C) in order to estimate the effective A-weighted sound pressure
level inside the ear).
