Noise Attenuation
This product has been tested to the European Safety Standard EN 352-2:2020 and the ANSI S3 19-1974 standard for a hearing protector, with a Single Number Rating (SNR) of 31 dB and a Noise Reduction Rating (NRR) of 25 dB. Full testing details are available in the Noise Attenuation section of this booklet.
ANSI S3.19-1974
American National Standards Institute
The level of noise entering a person’s ear, when ISOtunes® FREE 2 .0 earbuds are worn as directed, is closely approximated by the difference between the A-weighted environmental noise level and the Noise Reduction Rating (NRR). Improper fit of this device will reduce its effectiveness in attenuating noise. Consult the enclosed instructions for proper fitting. ISOtunes FREE 2.0 should not be used if a proper fit is not achieved or maintained.
A1: Frequency (Hz)
A2: Mean Attenuation (dB)
A3: Standard Deviation (dB)
Example:

  1. The surrounding noise level measured at the ear is 100 dB.
  2. The NRR of ISOtunes® FREE 2 .0 is 25 dB,
  3. The noise level entering the ear is approximately equal to 75 dB.

Please note that the NRR is based on the attenuation of continuous noise and may not be an accurate indicator of the protection attainable against impulsive noise, such as gunfire.
