CavCom communication system for high-noise environments

Communication has always been considered a vital tool for most workplaces; however, it has been difficult sometimes to achieve clear communication in high noise and challenging HAZMAT environments, thus creating potentially dangerous situations.

The CavCom communication system has been specifically designed to enable clear communication in challenging high-noise environments that also require head and face personal protection equipment (PPE). Adaptable to all PPE, each system consists of a control unit, radio adapter, ear set and handheld two-way radio.

The system uses ‘talk-through-your-ears’ technology where the ear set device fits entirely into the operator’s ear and does not require a headset or boom microphone. It also features noise filtering to enhance speech in noise while muting background sound.

With an intrinsic safety rating and remote push to talk (PTT) buttons for hands-free operation, the device provides excellent hearing protection - NRR 29 - for the highest noise environments. Additional hearing protection for extreme noise environments is possible as PPE can be worn over the ear set without breaking the ear seal.

The ear sets weigh less than 56 g, are easy to fit and are comfortable to wear. The system can also adapt to any two-way radio system, which means users are not required to replace existing radio communications.
