EN 352-2:2002

Hearing protectors - General requirements - Part 2: Ear-plugs

This part of the standard specifies constructional, design and performance requirements, marking requirements and user information for ear-plugs. In particular, it calls for the sound attenuation of the ear-plugs, measured in accordance with EN 24869-1, to be declared and to be not less than a specified minimum. The requirements of this standard are intended to take account of the ergonomic interaction between the wearer, the device and where possible the working environment in which the device is likely to be used (see Annex ZA, of this standard and EN 458).

Gehörschützer - Allgemeine Anforderungen - Teil 2: Gehörschutzstöpsel

Dieser Teil der Norm legt Anforderungen hinsichtlich Konstruktion, Gestaltung, Leistung, Kennzeichnung und Benutzerinformationen für Gehörschutzstöpsel fest. Im besonderen fordert sie die Angabe der durch die Gehörschutzstöpsel geleisteten nach EN 24869-1 gemessenen Schalldämmung, und daß die Schalldämmung einen festgelegten Mindestwert nicht unterschreiten darf. Die Anforderungen dieser Norm haben das Ziel, die ergonomische Wechselwirkung zwischen dem Benutzer, dem Gerät und wo möglich der Arbeitsumgebung, in der das Gerät voraussichtlich benutzt wird, zu berücksichtigen (siehe Anhang ZA dieser Norm und EN 458).

Protecteurs individuels contre le bruit - Exigences générales - Partie 2: Bouchons d'oreille

La présente partie de la norme établit les exigences en matière de construction, de conception, de performances et de marquage des bouchons d'oreille ainsi que les informations destinées à l'utilisateur.
Elle impose en particulier une déclaration de l'affaiblissement acoustique des bouchons d'oreille, mesuré conformément à l'EN 24869 1.
Les aspects ergonomiques sont abordés en tenant compte de l'interaction entre la personne qui porte les bouchons, l'appareil et, quand cela est possible, l'environnement de travail dans le lequel l'appareil est susceptible d'être utilisé (voir l'annexe ZA et l'EN 458).
