Overview
EN ISO 6926:2016/A1:2020 is an important amendment to the existing ISO 6926:2016 standard, published by CEN and coordinated by ISO Technical Committee ISO/TC 43 "Acoustics" in collaboration with CEN/TC 211. This standard addresses acoustics performance and calibration requirements specifically for reference sound sources used in determining sound power levels. The amendment clarifies procedures and enhances traceability expectations for calibration laboratories, ensuring standardized and reliable acoustic measurements across Europe and internationally.
This standard serves as a critical guideline in the field of acoustic measurements and noise abatement, promoting consistency and interoperability in sound power level determinations used in various industries and research.
Key Topics
- Reference Sound Sources Calibration: Specifies the requirements for the performance and calibration of reference sound sources, central to accurate sound power measurements.
- Traceability and Metrology: Clarifies that while sound pressure levels and measurement distances are traceable, sound power level calibration results may not be traceable in a strict metrological sense. This recognizes the practical limitations faced by typical testing laboratories compared to specialized calibration labs.
- Calibration Laboratory Requirements: Stresses that laboratories conducting calibrations must comply with ISO/IEC 17025, the international standard for competence of testing and calibration laboratories. Certificates of compliance must explicitly confirm this adherence.
- Periodic Recalibration: Sets timelines for reference sound source recalibration, mandating full recalibration after specified use periods by qualified laboratories to ensure ongoing measurement accuracy.
- Measurement Corrections: Endorses use of one-third-octave-band corrections from microphone calibrations conducted in ISO/IEC 17025 accredited labs, enhancing the precision of acoustic data.
Applications
EN ISO 6926:2016/A1:2020 is widely applied across multiple areas involving acoustic measurement and noise control, including:
- Environmental Noise Monitoring: Ensuring accurate sound power levels are determined for environmental impact studies and regulation compliance.
- Product Noise Testing: Industrial and consumer product manufacturers employ calibrated reference sound sources to assess equipment noise emissions, advancing product performance and regulatory adherence.
- Acoustic Research and Development: Provides a reliable framework for laboratories performing acoustic testing, aiding in research reproducibility and data comparability.
- Compliance Verification: Testing labs use this standard for conducting certified calibrations essential to compliance with national and international noise standards.
- Noise Abatement Programs: Facilitates sound power level measurements critical for designing and evaluating noise reduction solutions in urban and industrial settings.
Related Standards
- ISO 6926:2016: The base standard detailing fundamental requirements for reference sound sources calibration, which this amendment modifies to improve clarity and calibration practices.
- ISO/IEC 17025: International standard defining competence criteria for calibration and testing laboratories, referenced strongly for auditing calibration laboratory qualifications.
- ISO/TC 43 Acoustics series: Other standards from ISO Technical Committee 43 relevant to noise measurement, sound power determination, and acoustic terminology.
By following EN ISO 6926:2016/A1:2020, testing and calibration professionals can achieve more dependable acoustic measurement traceability and sound power accuracy, supporting sound management and regulatory compliance in diverse technical fields.
