Introduction
Generally speaking, determining the airborne noise emissions is only part of a comprehensive testing
programme which takes into account many different viewpoints relating to the characteristics and behaviour in
using a heat generator. It is therefore important that the requirements for noise tests, such as the measuring
equipment and the environment in which it is used should always be considered within the prescribed context.
It is also important whatever the ultimate purpose may be, to lay down procedures within a defined degree of
accuracy, so that the measuring results obtained from various different laboratories can be compared with one
another. These conditions have been taken into account as far as possible in preparing these test methods.
All test procedures defined in EN ISO 3741, EN ISO 3743, EN ISO 3744, EN ISO 3746 and EN ISO 9614 are
permissible methods.
It should be emphasised that these test methods only apply to airborne noise. In many cases, however,
structure-borne noise, such as can be transmitted into a neighbouring room, can also be of significance. It is
envisaged that airborne noise emissions through the flue gas path will be dealt with in a separate part of this
standard.
All the basic and noise measurement standards of accuracy categories 1 to 3 are permissible under this
testing standard.
Sound values declared by the manufacturer can be measured according to these three categories, but in any
case, the used category has to be stated.
This European Standard sets out various methods for testing to approximate the airborne noise emitted by
heat generators into the room of installation.

The main criteria for determining the choice of sound power level for the purpose of labelling the noise
emission are:
a) sound power level shall provide an adequate description of the noise emission and is independent of
environmental factors;
b) it shall be possible to determine the sound power level to a defined degree of accuracy from relatively
simple acoustic tests which can be carried out under a large number of defined acoustic conditions.
These test methods describe the objective procedure for determining the sound power level of airborne noise,
L .
W
The following sound power levels can be determined:
 A-weighted sound power level L
WA;
 sound power level in octave bands, L Tests shall be carried out on a frequency band covering at
WOct.
least an octave band from 125 Hz to 4000 Hz;
 sound power level in third bands, L . Tests shall be carried out on a frequency band covering at least
WThird
third-octave bands from 100 Hz to 5000 Hz.
For practical use, L test-stand measurements are sufficient for calculating the A-weighted sound power
WA
level.
4.2 Test method
4.2.1 Measurement approach
To determine sound power level, there are three basic procedures. These are:
 Conversion of sound pressure level measured into a reverberant field to sound power level. This
approach is described in EN ISO 3741 and EN ISO 3743-1 and EN ISO 3743-2.
 Conversion of sound pressure level measured into a free-field (or assimilated to a free-field) according to
EN ISO 3744, EN ISO 3745 and EN ISO 3746.
 Conversion of intensity field emitted around the appliance to sound power level. This approach is
described in EN ISO 9614-1, EN ISO 9614-2 and EN ISO 9614-3.
4.2.2 Uncertainty of test
Within each measurement approach in 4.2.1, different methods are described by specific standards in order to
reach different levels of accuracy on the final results. These accuracy levels are the following (from the best to
the worst accuracy):
 Category 1 describes the precision class;
 Category 2 describes the engineering class;
 Category 3 describes the survey class.
NOTE 1 For instance, using a free-field approach, the three relevant standards are EN ISO 3745 (Category 1),
EN ISO 3744 (Category 2) and EN ISO 3746 (Category 3). If the experimental approach is similar (measure of average
sound pressure level on a fictitious area including the appliance), test requirements are different depending on the
targeted level of accuracy (number of points, difference between background and appliance noise, test environment
correction, etc.).

---------------------- Page: 10 ----------------------

SIST EN 15036-1:2007
EN 15036-1:2006 (E)
NOTE 2 Depending on the accuracy category, the available information is different. Survey methods do not provide
spectral data.
According to accuracy categories, standard deviations on A-weighted are provided in Table 1.
Table 1 - Standard deviations on A-weighted overall sound power level according to accuracy
categories of standards
Precision class Engineering class Survey class
1 1,5 4
Standard deviation σ      dB
R

These standard deviations relate to a relatively flat spectrum.
In case of tonal noise, standard deviation of the survey method is increased by 1 dB.
In the hypothesis of a normal distribution of sound power level values, the probability that the correct value of
the sound power level of the appliance falls within a ±1,645 σ range, is 90 %. In addition, the probability that
R
the correct value of sound power level of the appliance falls within a ±1,96 σ range, is 95 %.
R
NOTE 3 Precision and engineering standards provide a spectral standard deviation, thus, it is possible to determine
relevant standard deviation on A-weighted overall level.
The manufacturer shall declare the category to be used.
It is recommended to use category 2, but if this is not possible, e.g. due to the back ground noise,
environmental conditions, size of the appliance etc., then category 3 applies.
4.2.3 Selection of test methods
Table 2 summarises the main requirements for categories available to determine sound power level.

4.2.4 Operation
According to the test facility and operator knowledge, tests will be carried out according to one of the following
annexes.
The use of each method according to category 2 is shortly described in:
 Annex A, free field method;
 Annex B, reverberant room method;
 Annex C, sound intensity method.
5 Set up and operation of the appliances
5.1 General
For measuring in a laboratory, the boiler shall be fixed to a wall/floor made of concrete or heavy masonry.
5.2 Equipment and preliminary treatment
Heat generators have to be equipped in the form in which they are delivered for the intended purpose or
function.
Front-mounted forced-draught burners can be measured at the test flame tube as well, in accordance with
EN 267 for forced-draught oil-fired burners or in accordance with EN 676 for forced-draught gas-fired burners
or on a boiler. Noise coming from the front of the test flame tube where the burner is installed is taken into
account.
It should be ensured that auxiliary equipment necessary for the operation of the heat generator or front-
mounted forced-draught burners does not emit any sound energy in the measuring environment which could
affect the results (see also Table A.1, “Limitation of background noise”).
5.3 Climatic conditions
The heat generators or front-mounted forced-draught burners shall be tested in a test laboratory under the
following climatic conditions (unless it has been designed specially for some other specific conditions):
 Temperature T: (20 ± 5) °C;
 Relative atmospheric humidity RH between 15 % and 70 %;
 Atmospheric pressure ps between 860 mbar and 1 060 mbar.
NOTE If measurements are to be taken on site, the ambient conditions should be stated in the report.
5.4 Operation of the appliance
The load and operating conditions of the equipment in static operation, in accordance with the manufacturer’s
installation and operating instructions, are decisive for determining its noise emissions.
The tests are taken at nominal output according to the relevant appliance standards and at the operating load
at which the greatest noise is emitted, as declared by the manufacturer. The start-up and shut-down
behaviour of the equipment and its operation for domestic hot-water, are ignored for these purposes.
11

---------------------- Page: 13 ----------------------

SIST EN 15036-1:2007
EN 15036-1:2006 (E)
The tests on gas-fired appliances are made if possible with test gas G20 according to EN 437. If not, the type
of gas used shall be indicated in the test report by identifying the relevant gas group.
The heat generator shall be used for its intended purpose and immediately prior to each series of readings. It
shall operate for a sufficient length of time until a steady state is reached. The same general requirements
apply to front-mounted forced-draught burners and inspections on the test flame tube.
For solid fuel appliances special operation conditions should be taken into account, e.g. fuel supply for the
storage tank to the appliance. There should be information on how often this operation will occur during
normal operation.
