Workers in oil and gas, chemical and other volatile industries that require Intrinsically Safe communication equipment have a new hearing protection option. The 3M™ PELTOR™ MT Series Intrinsically Safe Two-Way Communication Headset is designed for workers who need reliable communication while working in volatile, high-noise environments.

In addition to providing clear, two-way communication via a noise-cancelling microphone, the headsets offer impressive noise reduction and comfort. Technology in the headsets restrict electrical and thermal energy, helping reduce the risk of sparks and explosions in dangerous environments.

“With the added benefit of being Intrinsically Safe, these headsets are the intersection of communication, comfort and most importantly, protection” said Doug Moses, US product marketer, 3M.

The 3M™ PELTOR™ MT Series Intrinsically Safe Two-Way Communication Headset is available in standard headband, neckband and hard hat-attached models so workers can find the most comfortable solution to best fit their needs.

3M offers a comprehensive, diverse portfolio of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) solutions providing respiratory protection, hearing protection, fall protection, reflective materials for high-visibility apparel, protective clothing, protective eyewear, head and face protection, welding helmets, and other adjacent products and solutions, detection, monitoring equipment, and active communications equipment.
