Acoustics - Measurement of airborne noise emitted by information technology and telecommunications equipment (ISO 7779:2010)
This International Standard specifies procedures for measuring and reporting the noise emission of information technology and telecommunications equipment. The basic emission quantity is the A-weighted sound power level which may be used for comparing equipment of the same type but from different manufacturers, or for comparing different equipment. Three basic noise emission standards for determination of the sound power levels are specified in this International Standard in order to avoid undue restriction on existing facilities and experience. ISO 3741 specifies comparison measurements in a reverberation test room; ISO 3744 and ISO 3745 specify measurements in an essentially free field over a reflecting plane. Any one of these three basic noise emission standards can be selected and used exclusively in accordance with this International Standard when determining sound power levels of a machine. The A-weighted sound power level is supplemented by the A-weighted emission sound pressure level determined at the operator position(s) or the bystander positions, based on basic noise emission standard ISO 11201. This sound pressure level is not a worker's immission rating level, but it can assist in identifying any potential problems that could cause annoyance, activity interference, or hearing damage to operators and bystanders. Methods for determination of whether the noise emission includes prominent discrete tones or is impulsive in character are specified in Annexes D and E, respectively. This International Standard is suitable for type tests and provides methods for manufacturers and testing laboratories to obtain comparable results. The methods specified in this International Standard allow the determination of noise emission levels for a functional unit (see 3.1.4) tested individually. The procedures apply to equipment which emits broad-band noise, narrow-band noise and noise which contains discrete-frequency components, or impulsive noise. The sound power and emission sound pressure levels obtained can serve noise emission declaration and comparison purposes (see ISO 9296). If sound power levels obtained are determined for a number of functional units of the same production series, they can be used to determine a statistical value for that production series (see ISO 9296).
Akustik - Geräuschemissionsmessung an Geräten der Informations- und Telekommunikationstechnik (ISO 7779:2010)
Diese Internationale Norm legt Verfahren zur Messung und Angabe des Geräusches fest, das von Geräten der
Informations- und Telekommunikationstechnik abgestrahlt wird.
ANMERKUNG 1 Diese Internationale Norm gilt als Teil einer Geräuschmessnorm (siehe 3.1.2) für diese Art von
Geräten. Sie beruht auf den Geräuschemissions-Grundnormen (siehe 3.1.1) ISO 3741, ISO 3744, ISO 3745 und
ISO 11201.
Als Grundgröße dient der A-bewertete Schallleistungspegel, der zum Vergleich von Geräten derselben Bauart,
jedoch verschiedener Hersteller sowie zum Vergleich von unterschiedlichen Geräten herangezogen werden
kann.
In dieser Internationalen Norm werden drei Geräuschemissions-Grundnormen zur Bestimmung der Schallleistungspegel
festgelegt, um ungerechtfertigte Einschränkungen bezüglich vorhandener Prüfeinrichtungen und
Erfahrungen zu vermeiden. ISO 3741 beschreibt Vergleichsmessungen in einem Hallraum; ISO 3744 und
ISO 3745 beschreiben Messungen in einem im Wesentlichen freien Schallfeld über einer reflektierenden Ebene.
Jede dieser drei Geräuschemissions-Grundnormen kann ausgewählt und ausschließlich entsprechend dieser
Internationalen Norm für die Bestimmung der Schallleistungspegel einer Maschine angewandt werden.
Der A-bewertete Schallleistungspegel wird durch den A-bewerteten Emissions-Schalldruckpegel am Arbeitsplatz
(an Arbeitsplätzen) oder an Nachbararbeitsplätzen eines Gerätes ergänzt, die nach der Geräuschemissions-
Grundnorm ISO 11201 bestimmt werden. Letzterer ist zwar kein Beurteilungspegel der Geräuschbelastung
eines am Gerät Arbeitenden (Geräuschimmission), er kann aber bei der Suche nach möglichen Problemen
helfen, die zu einer Belästigung, Arbeitsbehinderung oder zu Hörschäden bei Bedienungspersonen oder an
Nachbararbeitsplätzen führen könnten.
In den Anhängen D und E sind Verfahren festgelegt, nach denen bestimmt werden kann, ob die Geräuschemission
deutliche Einzeltöne oder Impulsanteile enthält.
Acoustique - Mesurage du bruit aérien émis par les équipements liés aux technologies de l'information et aux télécommunications (ISO 7779:2010)
L'ISO 7779:2010 spécifie des procédures de mesurage et d'indication de l'émission sonore des équipements liés aux technologies de l'information et aux télécommunications.
La grandeur fondamentale d'émission sonore est le niveau de puissance acoustique pondéré A qui peut être utilisé pour la comparaison d'équipements de même type mais de fabricants différents, ou pour la comparaison de différents équipements.
Trois normes de base, relatives à l'émission sonore, permettant de déterminer les niveaux de puissance acoustique, sont spécifiées dans l'ISO 7779:2010 de façon à éviter une restriction excessive des installations et des pratiques existantes. L'ISO 3741 spécifie les mesurages de comparaison dans une salle d'essai réverbérante; l'ISO 3744 et l'ISO 3745 spécifient les mesurages dans les conditions approchant celles du champ libre au-dessus d'un plan réfléchissant. L'une ou l'autre de ces trois normes de base relatives à l'émission sonore peut être sélectionnée et utilisée exclusivement conformément à l'ISO 779:2010 lors de la détermination des niveaux de puissance acoustique d'une machine.
Le niveau de puissance acoustique pondéré A est complété par le niveau de pression acoustique d'émission pondéré A déterminé à la (aux) position(s) d'opérateur ou aux positions d'assistant, par rapport à la norme de base relative à l'émission sonore ISO 11201. Ce niveau de pression acoustique n'est pas un niveau d'évaluation d'immission du travailleur, mais peut être utile à l'identification de tout problème potentiel pouvant engendrer un désagrément, une interférence avec l'activité, ou des lésions auditives aux opérateurs et assistants.
Les méthodes permettant de déterminer si l'émission sonore comporte des composantes tonales émergentes, ou si elle présente un caractère impulsionnel, sont spécifiées dans les Annexes D et E, respectivement.
L'ISO 7779:2010 convient aux essais de type et fournit des méthodes pour les fabricants et les laboratoires d'essais permettant d'obtenir des résultats comparables.
Les méthodes spécifiées dans l'ISO 7779:2010 permettent la détermination de niveaux d'émission sonore pour une unité fonctionnelle testée individuellement.
Les procédures sont applicables à l'équipement qui émet un bruit à large bande, un bruit à bande étroite, un bruit à composantes tonales, ou un bruit impulsionnel.
Les niveaux de puissance acoustique et de pression acoustique d'émission obtenus peuvent servir aux besoins de déclaration d'émission sonore et aux fins de comparaison (voir ISO 9296).
Si les niveaux de puissance acoustique obtenus sont déterminés pour un certain nombre d'unités fonctionnelles de la même série de production, ils peuvent être utilisés pour déterminer une valeur statistique pour cette même série (voir l'ISO 9296).
Akustika - Merjenje zračnega hrupa informacijske tehnologije in telekomunikacijske opreme (ISO 7779:2010)
Ta mednarodni standard določa postopke za merjenje in poročanje o emisijah hrupa informacijske tehnologije in telekomunikacijske opreme. Osnovna količina emisij je A-utežena raven moči zvoka, ki se lahko uporablja za primerjavo opreme istega tipa, vendar od različnih proizvajalcev, ali za primerjavo različne opreme. V tem mednarodnem standardu so določeni trije osnovni standardi emisij hrupa za ugotavljanje ravni moči zvoka, z namenom izogniti se nepotrebnim omejitvam obstoječih možnosti in izkušenj. ISO 3741 določa ukrepe za primerjavo v odmevnicah; ISO 3744 in ISO 3745 določata ukrepe na v osnovi prostem polju nad odbojno ravnino. Kateri koli izmed teh treh osnovnih standardov za emisije hrupa se lahko izbere in uporabi izključno v skladu s tem mednarodnim standardom, kadar se ugotavljajo ravni moči zvoka stroja. A-utežena raven moči zvoka je nadomeščena z A-uteženo ravnijo emisij zvočnega tlaka, ugotovljeno s strani operaterjev ali drugih navzočih oseb, osnovano na osnovnem standardu o emisijah hrupa ISO 11201. Ta raven zvočnega tlaka ni delavčeva ocenjena raven emisije, vendar lahko pomaga pri prepoznavanju kakršnih koli potencialnih problemov, ki bi lahko povzročili nevšečnosti, motenje dejavnosti ali poškodbo sluha za operaterje ali druge navzoče osebe. Metode za ugotavljanje ali emisije hrupa vključujejo izrazito diskretne tone in ali so nenadne so opredeljene v Dodatkih D in E v tem vrstnem redu. Ta mednarodni standard je primeren za tipska preskušanja in predpisuje metode za proizvajalce in preskusne laboratorije, s katerimi se pridobijo primerljivi rezultati. Metoda, opredeljena v tem mednarodnem standardu, omogoča ugotavljanje ravni emisij hrupa za funkcionalno enoto (glej točko 3.1.4.), ki se preskuša posamično. Postopki veljajo za opremo, ki oddaja širokopasovni hrup, ozkopasovni hrup in hrup, ki vsebuje komponente diskretnih frekvenc ali nenadni hrup. Pridobljene ravni moči zvoka in emisije zvočnega tlaka lahko služijo za namene deklariranja emisij in primerjanja (glej ISO 9296). Če so pridobljene ravni moči zvoka določene za več funkcionalnih enot iste proizvodne serije, se lahko uporabijo za določevanje statistične vrednosti te proizvodne serije (glej ISO 9296).

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.
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 7779 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 43, Acoustics, Subcommittee SC 1, Noise.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 7779:1999), which has been technically
revised. It also incorporates the amendment, ISO 7779:1999/Amd.1:2003.

Introduction
This International Standard specifies methods for the measurement of airborne noise emitted by information
technology and telecommunications (ITT) equipment. Hitherto, a wide variety of methods have been applied
by individual manufacturers and users to satisfy particular equipment or application needs. These diverse
practices have, in many cases, made comparison of noise emission difficult. This International Standard
simplifies such comparisons and is the basis for the declaration of the noise emission levels of ITT equipment.
In order to ensure accuracy, validity and acceptability, this International Standard is based on the basic
International Standards for determination of the sound power level and for determination of the emission
sound pressure level at the operator position(s) and bystander position(s). Furthermore, implementation is
simplified by conformity with these International Standards.
In many cases, free-field conditions over a reflecting plane are realised by hemi-anechoic rooms. These
rooms may be particularly useful during product design to locate and to improve individual contributing noise
sources. Reverberation rooms may be more economical for production control and for obtaining sound power
levels for noise emission declaration purposes.
The method for measuring the emission sound pressure level at the operator or bystander positions (based on
ISO 11201) is specified in a separate clause, as this level is not considered to be primary noise emission
declaration information. The measurements can, however, be carried out in conjunction with those for sound
power determination in a free field over a reflecting plane.
For comparison of similar equipment, it is essential that the installation conditions and mode of operation be
the same. In Annex C these parameters are standardized for many categories of equipment.
This International Standard is based on ECMA-74.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 7779:2010(E)
Acoustics — Measurement of airborne noise emitted by
information technology and telecommunications equipment
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies procedures for measuring and reporting the noise emission of
information technology and telecommunications equipment.
NOTE 1 This International Standard is considered part of a noise test code (see 3.1.2) for this type of equipment, and
is based on basic noise emission standards (see 3.1.1) ISO 3741, ISO 3744, ISO 3745 and ISO 11201.
The basic emission quantity is the A-weighted sound power level which may be used for comparing
equipment of the same type but from different manufacturers, or for comparing different equipment.
Three basic noise emission standards for determination of the sound power levels are specified in this
International Standard in order to avoid undue restriction on existing facilities and experience. ISO 3741
specifies comparison measurements in a reverberation test room; ISO 3744 and ISO 3745 specify
measurements in an essentially free field over a reflecting plane. Any one of these three basic noise emission
standards can be selected and used exclusively in accordance with this International Standard when
determining sound power levels of a machine.
The A-weighted sound power level is supplemented by the A-weighted emission sound pressure level
determined at the operator position(s) or the bystander positions, based on basic noise emission standard
ISO 11201. This sound pressure level is not a worker's immission rating level, but it can assist in identifying
any potential problems that could cause annoyance, activity interference, or hearing damage to operators and
bystanders.
Methods for determination of whether the noise emission includes prominent discrete tones or is impulsive in
character are specified in Annexes D and E, respectively.
This International Standard is suitable for type tests and provides methods for manufacturers and testing
laboratories to obtain comparable results.
The methods specified in this International Standard allow the determination of noise emission levels for a
functional unit (see 3.1.4) tested individually.
The procedures apply to equipment which emits broad-band noise, narrow-band noise and noise which
contains discrete-frequency components, or impulsive noise.
The sound power and emission sound pressure levels obtained can serve noise emission declaration and
comparison purposes (see ISO 9296).
NOTE 2 The sound power and emission sound pressure levels obtained are not to be considered as installation noise
[4]
immission levels; however, they can be used for installation planning (see ECMA TR/27 ).
If sound power levels obtained are determined for a number of functional units of the same production series,
they can be used to determine a statistical value for that production series (see ISO 9296).

sound pressure
p
difference between instantaneous total pressure and static pressure
NOTE 1 Sound pressure is expressed in pascals.
NOTE 2 The symbol p is often used without modification to represent a root mean square (r.m.s.) sound pressure.

3.2.4
time-averaged sound pressure level
L
pT
sound pressure level of a continuous steady sound that, within a measurement time interval, T, has the same
mean-square sound pressure as a sound under consideration which varies with time
3.2.5
emission sound pressure level
L
p
sound pressure level measured at a specified position near a noise source, when the source is in operation
under specified operating and mounting conditions on a reflecting plane surface, but excluding the effects of
background noise
NOTE 1 The emission sound pressure level is expressed in decibels.
NOTE 2 Clause 8 specifies the method for determination of emission sound pressure level.

frequency range of interest
one-third-octave bands with centre frequencies specified in ISO 266 from 100 Hz to 10 000 Hz inclusive
NOTE For equipment which emits discrete tone(s) in the 16 kHz octave band, the procedures specified in ISO 9295
are used; see Table 4.
4 Conformity requirements
Measurements are in conformity with this International Standard if they meet the following requirements:
a) the measurement procedures, the installation and the operating conditions specified in this International
Standard are fully taken into account;
b) for the determination of sound power levels, one (and only one) of the methods specified in Clause 6 or 7
is used;
c) for determination of emission sound pressure level at the operator or bystander positions, the method
specified in Clause 8 is used.
5 Installation and operating conditions
5.1 Equipment installation
5.1.1 General
The equipment shall be installed according to its intended use. Installation conditions for many different
categories of ITT equipment are specified in Annex C; these shall be followed when noise emission
declaration information is to be obtained. If the normal installation is unknown or if several possibilities exist, a
representative condition shall be chosen and reported.
Care shall be taken to ensure that any electrical conduits, piping, air ducts or other auxiliary equipment
connected to the equipment being tested do not radiate significant amounts of sound energy into the test room.
If practicable, all auxiliary equipment necessary for the operation of the equipment shall be located outside the
test room and the test room shall be free from all objects which may interfere with the measurements.

NOTE If the equipment is mounted near one or more reflecting planes, the sound power radiated by the equipment
can depend upon its position and orientation. It is possible that the determination of the radiated sound power is of interest
either for one particular equipment position and orientation or from the average value for several positions and orientations.
5.1.2 Floor-standing equipment
5.1.2.1 Requirements for reverberation test rooms
Floor-standing equipment shall be located at least 1,5 m from any wall of the room and no major surfaces
shall be parallel to a wall of the reverberation test room.
5.1.2.2 Requirements for hemi-anechoic rooms
Floor-standing equipment shall be installed on the reflecting (hard) floor at a sufficient distance (more than
2 m, if possible) from the walls, unless otherwise specified in Annex C.
The equipment shall be installed in a way which
