Ideal Applications
Consider PW62 for tasks requiring compatible head and hearing protection together, including industrial maintenance and site work. Select the assembly against the assessed noise and helmet requirements. The orange detailing does not replace certified high-visibility clothing where that is required.
Use and Care
Install the clips and adjust the cups according to Portwest’s instructions. Confirm that both cushions surround the ears and that eyewear or other PPE does not interrupt the seal. Use any parked position only when hearing protection is unnecessary. Check for loose fittings, damaged arms and deteriorated cushions before use. Clean, store and replace parts only as directed in the supplied instructions.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will PW62 fit every helmet with 30mm slots?
No. The slot measurement describes the fitting, but you must also check the approved helmet model and the instructions for the complete combination.
Is a hard hat included?
This listing is for PW62 ear defenders. Purchase a compatible helmet separately if you do not already have a suitable approved model.
What does the SNR 33dB figure mean for selection?
It is the published manufacturer rating, rather than a guarantee of sound reduction for every wearer and helmet. Use the relevant documentation and workplace noise assessment when selecting protection.
Does the orange colour provide certified high-visibility protection?
The colour helps identify the product. It does not replace the high-visibility garments specified by your workplace assessment.
