If you are operating in hazardous, high-noise environments, protecting your hearing while maintaining clear communication is critical. The 3M PELTOR ATEX Twin Cup Heavy Duty Headset (MT72H540A-50) is engineered specifically for these extreme conditions. Designed with a comfortable headband and extra-high attenuating twin cup technology, this headset seals out dangerous noise levels while allowing you to transmit clearly via the integrated boom microphone.
Why choose the 3M PELTOR ATEX Twin Cup Headset?
This headset is built for long shifts in demanding industrial settings. It features an optimal acoustic design with foam and fluid-filled cushions that provide ample space for your ears while creating a secure, comfortable seal against hazardous noise. With an impressive 31dB attenuation rating, it significantly reduces background sound. Plus, the dynamic noise-cancelling boom microphone ensures your voice is heard loud and clear, even in the loudest environments.
Is this headset intrinsically safe?
Yes, it is fully ATEX-certified and IECEx-approved (IECEx class ib IIC T4) for use in potentially explosive environments. This makes it an essential piece of safety equipment for workers in oil and gas, chemical processing, and other hazardous industries.
How does it connect to my two-way radio?
To use this headset with your radio, you will need a compatible ATEX flex lead PTT (Push-To-Talk) adapter. For example, it connects to the Motorola DP4000 ATEX series radios via the PMLN6368A or PMLN6803A PTT cables. If you are using different radio models, you might also consider exploring our FLX2 Cable for MOTOTRBO DP4000 Series or the FLX2 Cable for Motorola DP1400/GP300 to ensure seamless integration.
