Electronic Noise Canceling (ENC) Ear Protection
Headsets combines superior passive hearing protection with the most
advanced electronic noise cancellation technology. ENC Headsets are specifically designed to
provide high-performance ear protection and increased safety for the
industrial worker. It is also an excellent choice for do-it-yourself
users of lawnmowers and power tools, as well as for motor sports
fans when used in conjunction with scanners. You can even listen to
your portable audio player while wearing your ENC Headsets. The
product delivers up to 20dB of electronic noise cancellation and has
a passive Noise Reduction Rating (NRR) of 26dB (over-the-head).
The electronic noise cancellation technology
utilized in the ENC Headsets integrates a microphone inside the ear cup that listens to
noise coming into the ear. The system analyzes that information
electronically and creates a noise wave that is direct opposite,
canceling the one coming into the ear. The “anti-noise” wave is
transmitted through a speaker, also located in the ear cup. When the
two waves (the noise wave and the anti-noise wave) meet, the noise
is significantly reduced.
Since the ENC Headsets incorporates both electronic noise
cancellation and passive protection components, it is superior to
conventional, solely passive protective ear protection. The electronic
noise cancellation component is the most effective defense against
low-frequency noises like those generated by engines, fans and
motors. The passive protection component is the most effective
defense against mid- and high-frequency noise such as speech and
saws.
