Forest, no wind
The unit of sound levels is the decibel (dB). A noise reduction of 10 dB is generally perceived as
a halving of the loudness, another 10 dB decrease halves the loudness yet again whitch corres-
ponds to a loudness reduction of 75 %, and so on.

The Problem of Noise
The negative effects of noise pollution have been proven by studies, and everybody
will have experienced them at some time or another:
왘
Nervousness
왘
Lack of concentration
왘
Irritability
And these are only the most obvious effects on the human body. Noise also affects
the autonomic nervous system and can lead to permanent hearing damage.
There are a multitude of noise sources, and the individual very often has no
influence over them. The only solution when being in a noisy place is protecting
oneself against ambient noise. These noise problems are particularly prevalent in
an aircraft cockpit where a pilot often has to have the communications headset so
loud as to risk permanent hearing damage.
With the
NoiseGard
™
system, Sennheiser has come up with an effective solution.
These operating instructions explain the
NoiseGard

principle and show you how
to use the
