Danger
Exposure to extremely high noise levels may cause a permanent hearing loss.
Individuals vary considerably to noise induced hearing loss but nearly everyone will
lose some hearing if exposed to sufficiently intense noise for a sufficient time.
The U.S. Government's Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has
specified the following permissible noise level exposures:
Danger
L’exposition a des niveaux eleves de bruit peut provoquer une perte permanente
de l’audition. Chaque organisme humain reagit differemment quant a la perte de
l’audition, mais quasiment tout le monde subit une diminution de l’acuite auditive
lors d’une exposition suffisamment longue au bruit intense. Les autorites
competentes en reglementation de bruit ont defini les expositions tolerees aux
niveaux de bruits:
DURATION PER DAY (HOURS)864321
SOUND LEVEL (dB) 90 93 95 97 100 103
According to OSHA, any exposure in the above permissible limits could result in
some hearing loss. Ear plugs or protectors in the ear canal or over the ears must
be worn when operating this amplification system in order to prevent a permanent
hearing loss. If exposure in excess of the limits as put forth above, to insure against
potentially harmful exposure to high sound pressure levels, it is recommended that
all persons exposed to equipment capable of inducing high sound pressure levels,
such as this amplification system, be protected by hearing protectors while this unit
is in operation.

Selon les autorites, toute exposition dans les limites citees ci-dessus, peuvent
provoquer certaines pertes d’audition. Des bouchons ou protections dans
l’appareil auditif ou sur l’oreille doivent etre portes lors de l’utilisation de ce
systeme d’amplification afin de prevenir le risque de perte permanente de
l’audition. Dans le cas d’expositions superieures aux limites precitees il est
recommande, afin de se premunir contre les expositions aux pressions
acoustiques elevees potentiellement dangeureuses, aux personnes exposees
aux equipements capables de delivrer de telles puissances, tels ce systeme
d’amplification en fonctionnement, de proteger l’appareil auditif.
