Acoustic Testing of PPE Products
Simon Courtney runs through the types of hearing protection PPE products SATRA tests, the legislation required, testing and assessments and the EN 352 series of standards. In addition, he covers ANSI / ASA standards for products going to the USA.

During this webinar Simon Courtney discusses the testing and certification of these types of products.
