3M Peltor LiteCom PRO III EX ATEX Headset | Intrinsically Safe
If you are working in potentially explosive environments, communication and hearing protection are absolutely critical. The 3M Peltor LiteCom PRO III EX ATEX Two-Way Radio Headset is designed specifically for working professionals who need reliable, intrinsically safe communication without compromising on safety or situational awareness.
Why choose the 3M Peltor LiteCom PRO III EX for your team?
This headset is a powerhouse of safety and connectivity. It features a built-in programmable two-way radio that supports both analogue and digital DMR modulation across 70 channels (403–470 MHz). Because it is approved for use in explosive environments according to ATEX and IECEx regulations (covering gas, dust, and underground mining), you can trust it in the most hazardous conditions. Plus, the level-dependent technology ensures you can still hear important ambient sounds and communicate with colleagues standing nearby without removing your hearing protection.
How does the Bluetooth and VOX functionality work?
For ultimate convenience, this headset includes Bluetooth multipoint connectivity, allowing you to seamlessly connect to external mobile devices. Combined with Voice Operated Transmission (VOX), you get completely hands-free operation in high-noise environments. There are no cumbersome cables to get in your way, though it does feature an external connection jack if needed.
What are the key technical specifications?
- Frequency Range: 403–470 MHz (UHF)
- Channels: Up to 70 programmable channels
- Modulation: Analogue and Digital (DMR compatible)
- Range: Up to 2 km outdoors (depending on conditions)
- Battery: Lithium-Ion rechargeable battery

Are there any compatible accessories to enhance this headset?
Yes, you can easily expand your setup. If you need a replacement microphone, the Peltor MT7N-02 Boom Microphone is an excellent choice. Alternatively, if you have team members who only require passive hearing protection without the built-in radio, the 3M Peltor Ear Defenders X2A provide outstanding noise attenuation.
