Earth-moving machinery - Guidelines for assessment of exposure to whole-body vibration of ride-on machines - Use of harmonized data measured by international institutes, organizations and manufacturers (ISO/TR 25398:2006)

ISO/TR 25398:2006 provides guidelines for those such as employers, national authorities and manufacturers of earth-moving machinery who are required to determine, assess and document the daily whole body vibration exposure for ride-on machines as defined in ISO 6165. It also provides guidelines for reducing vibration levels on machines and for determining the vibration reduction from machine improvements to reduce vibration levels. It is intended to assist in establishing documentation for specific earth-moving machinery under typical operating conditions.

Erdbaumaschinen - Anleitung zur Beurteilung der Belastung durch Ganzkörper-Schwingungen bei Maschinen mit aufsitzendem Maschinenführer - Verwendung harmonisierter Messwerte von internationalen Instituten, Organisationen und Herstellern (ISO/TR 25398:2006)

Dieser Fachbericht enthält Anleitungen für diejenigen (z. B. Arbeitgeber, nationale Behörden, Hersteller von Erdbaumaschinen), die die tägliche Ganzkörper-Schwingungsbelastung auf Erdbaumaschinen nach ISO 6165 mit aufsitzendem Maschinenführer zu ermitteln, beurteilen und dokumentieren haben. Er enthält auch Anleitungen zur Minderung der Schwingungen auf Erdbaumaschinen sowie zur Ermittlung der Schwingungs¬reduzierung durch eine Maßnahme zur Schwingungsminderung an der Maschine. Dieser Fachbericht hilft, die Dokumentation für eine bestimmte Erdbaumaschine bei typischen Betriebsbedingungen zu erstellen.
Er enthält Anleitungen, wie die Tages-Schwingungsbelastung A(8) nach ISO 2631 und EN 14253 ermittelt wird, indem auch ein einfaches Verfahren genannt wird, nach dem die Tages-Schwingungsbelastung mit Hilfe einer Tabelle ermittelt wird, die die Tagesbelastung als Funktion des äquivalenten Schwingungsgesamtwerts und der zugehörige Einwirkungsdauer angibt. Die Verfahren können auch im Falle mehrerer Belastungen am selben Tag angewandt werden.
Es werden Verfahren zur Berechnung der Belastung angegeben, bei denen die angegebenen Schwingungs¬emissionswerte verwendet werden, die für Maschinen mit einem Sitz nach ISO 7096 gelten.
ANMERKUNG   Zusätzliche Informationen sind in den Normen der Reihen EN 474 und EN 500 enthalten.
Arbeitsplatzmessungen sind erforderlich, wenn keine geeigneten Daten verfügbar sind, die die Schwingungen unter den speziellen Arbeitsbedingungen charakterisieren, oder wenn die Berechnungsergebnisse keine Entscheidung ermöglichen, ob der Grenzwert oder der Auslösewert für die Schwingungsbelastung überschritten wird.
Es ist wichtig, dass die Schwingungswerte, die bei der Beurteilung der Belastung verwendet werden, für den spezifischen Gebrauch der Maschine repräsentativ sind.
Dieser Fachbericht behandelt nicht die Beurteilung von Belastungen durch Stöße.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
In exceptional circumstances, when a technical committee has collected data of a different kind from that
which is normally published as an International Standard (“state of the art”, for example), it may decide by a
simple majority vote of its participating members to publish a Technical Report. A Technical Report is entirely
informative in nature and does not have to be reviewed until the data it provides are considered to be no
longer valid or useful.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO/TR 25398 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 127, Earth-moving machinery, Subcommittee
SC 2, Safety requirements and human factors.

Introduction
This Technical Report provides information on how to assess the whole-body vibration exposure of operators
of earth-moving machines. The method is based on measured vibration emission under real working
conditions. It needs to be noted that vibration emissions are influenced by many different parameters,
originating from
⎯ operator (e.g. training, behaviour, mode, stress),
⎯ jobsite (e.g. organization, preparation, environment, weather, material), and
⎯ machine (e.g. type, quality of seat and suspension system, attachment, equipment, condition).
It is therefore not possible to obtain precise exposure figures. The values given in this Technical Report need
to be used with great care since they were measured for a limited number of operators, defined work
situations, and machine types.
On the one hand, the actual work situation for a specific machine operator can be very different, thus creating
different vibration. On the other hand, values from real work that can be found in the literature are only correct
for the specific work situation and time when they were measured. The user of this Technical Report needs to
be aware that the exposure to vibration depends not only on the machine used but also to a large extent on
the operator, jobsite and machine, and other factors. All these factors need to be taken into account in order to
make a practical assessment of vibration magnitude.
There are typical operating conditions for machine types in accordance to ISO 6165 identified and listed in
Annex A. This list may not be complete, but it represents most of the real working conditions.
Properly adjusting and maintaining machines, operating machines smoothly, and maintaining the terrain
conditions can reduce whole-body vibrations. The guidelines given in Annex E can help users of earth-moving
machines reduce the whole-body vibration levels.
The daily vibration exposure to be assessed depends on both the magnitude of vibration at the surface in
contact with the whole body and the total daily duration for which an employee is in contact with that vibration.
The vibration levels for the same type of machine are ass
