ISO 14859:2012

Ships and marine technology - Sound reception systems

This International Standard specifies the functional requirements and recommended installation and performance tests for sound reception systems. Guidelines have been drawn up for the methods and solutions to meet the functional requirements. The requirements apply to fully enclosed bridges, and other bridges where such equipment is voluntarily installed. This International Standard specifies bridge requirements that will secure a safe and efficient lookout on those seagoing ships having a fully enclosed bridge. This International Standard will be for the design of ship bridges. It will also be useful for a) specifiers and procurers of ships and bridge equipment, and b) operators and owners for ensuring that changes made through the life of a ship still conform to its requirements.

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.
