Peltor Adapter
FL5000 – for extreme environments

The FL5000 adapter series – alw
– Make yourself heard in the most extreme environments

The new Peltor FL5000 adapter series was developed by professionals for professionals. Close collaboration with demanding users and extensive testing in tough environments have convinced us that we have reached our goal – making communication in tough environments easier and safer. We know that our solutions work – on oil platforms in the North Sea, in damp mine shafts and at thundering airports.

High flexibility
The box has a standard Peltor J11 chassis jack. This lets you use Peltor’s wide standard range of headsets without any further adaptations. Just plug in and start talking. The outgoing wire has a contact for a communication radio or telephone. Contacts are available for most modern communication radio and telephone systems on the market.

Sturdy
The adapter is built into a functional, watertight, sturdy shell with no protruding parts. The whole adapter, particularly the contact, is designed to keep moisture away from the circuits. The adapter is sealed to IP65. All external details are made of rust-proof materials. The cord has a flexible, durable reinforcement where it connects to the box, and some types of adapters have a cord with a very rugged copper alloy. The chassis jack and reinforcements have been tested thoroughly to withstand being plugged in, unplugged and bent at least 100,000 times.

Always close by – never in the way
The adapter is designed to fit the size and shape of the hand. On the back is a sturdy clamp that can be used to attach the adapter to your clothing. The clamp can be twisted 360º, making the adapter as easy and flexible as possible to use in all situations without being in the way or snagging on anything. The clamp can easily be removed if the adapter does not need to be fastened in place.
The adapter also has a loop that can be used to fasten it in place when the clamp is not used.
