Bilsom Upgrades Viking Series Earmuffs with Air Flow Control

Bilsom has upgraded its popular Viking Series noise blocking earmuffs to incorporate its patented Air Flow Control technology (AFC), which delivers optimal attenuation across all frequencies without increasing earcup size or weight. Viking Series multi-position headbands give workers the flexibility to wear their earmuffs over-the-head, behind-the-head, or under-the-chin, allowing them to be worn with hard hats, face shields, respirators, and other PPE.

Air Flow Control Technology has boosted attenuation on the V1 model from 23 to 25, and V2 model from 25 to 27. Attenuation on V3 remains at 29, though with improved lower frequency attenuation.

Viking Series V2 and V3 earmuffs feature a dual-headband design with an inner ventilated band for better positioning and breathability, and a non-deforming outer headband that minimizes pressure on the head. An improved attached elastic headband strap provides additional comfort and helps to ensure attenuation when earmuffs are worn in other than over-the-head positions. Snap-in ear cushions make replacement quick and easy, and dielectric construction with rugged ABS plastic makes Viking Series earmuffs suitable for almost all workplaces, and especially for electrical and mining environments.
