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 20361 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 115, Pumps.

ISO 20361:2007(E)
Introduction
The noise emitted by a pump unit can be radiated by the casing of the pump, the driving system (e.g. motor,
gear box, coupling), the piping system and all the connected structures.
On site, the perceived noise can be significantly increased by reverberation effects or by the radiation of
extraneous sources.
Depending on the type of pump it may be useful to know
a) the noise of the pumping system (including piping);
b) the noise of the pump unit, including the driver and the transmission elements but excluding the noise of
the piping system;
c) the noise emitted by the pump alone, excluding the noise from the driver, transmission elements and the
pipings;
d) the noise emitted by each of those elements in respect to a given requirement or in view of an efficient
sound proofing of the installation.
This International Standard describes methods for the determination of the noise emitted by a pump unit
[case b)] or a pump alone [case c)]. Noise emission is expressed in terms of the sound power level of the
machine and the emission sound pressure level at the relevant work station (see 6.2).
This International Standard is intended to enable the manufacturer to
⎯ show the effectiveness of noise reduction,
⎯ declare the noise emission levels.
This International Standard is a type C standard as stated in ISO 12100-1 and ISO 12100-2.
When provisions of this type C standard are different from those which are stated in A or B standards, the
provisions of this type C standard take precedence.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which noise is covered are indicated in the scope of this
International Standard.

This International Standard specifies all the information necessary to carry out efficiently and under
standardized conditions the determination, declaration and verification of the airborne noise emission of liquid
pumps or pump units (see 4.1). It specifies the noise measurement methods and the operating and mounting
conditions that shall be used for the test.
Noise emission characteristics include emission sound pressure levels at specified positions and the sound
power level. The determination of these quantities is necessary for
⎯ declaring the noise emission values,
⎯ purpose of noise control at source at the design stage.
NOTE 1 The determination of these quantities is also necessary for comparing the noise emitted by liquid pumps on the

The use of this International Standard ensures the reproducibility of the determination of the airborne noise-
emission characteristics within specified limits determined by the grade of accuracy of the basic airborne noise
measurement method used. Noise measurement methods according to this International Standard are

4.3 Safety guards, e.g. coupling guards, insulation hoods etc., if any, shall be installed during
noise-emission determination.
5 Sound power level determination
5.1 General
One of the following grade 2 of accuracy methods for determining the sound power level shall be used:
⎯ ISO 3743-1 or ISO 3743-2;
NOTE 1 ISO 3743-1 is based upon a hard-walled room and low background noise. This International Standard
gives specifications to sound pressure level measurement in octave bands, in order to calculate the sound power
level.
NOTE 2 ISO 3743-2 is based upon special reverberation test room. This International Standard gives specifications
to A-weighted sound pressure level measurement in order to calculate the sound power level.
⎯ ISO 3744;
NOTE 3 ISO 3744 is based upon a non reverberant environment and low background noise. This International
Standard specifies a method to calculate the sound power level from the measured A-weighted sound pressure
levels or sound pressure levels in octave or third octave bands.
⎯ ISO 9614-1 or ISO 9614-2.
If it has been shown that the applicability requirements of these grade 2 standards cannot be attained, e.g. too
much background noise, then one of the following grade 3 methods shall be used:
⎯ ISO 3746;
NOTE 4 ISO 3746 is less demanding, it only gives specifications to the measurement of A-weighted sound pressure
levels and provides A-weighted sound power levels with grade 3 of accuracy.
⎯ ISO 9614-1 or ISO 9614-2;
NOTE 5 ISO 9614 (all parts) can be used in all environments, including reverberation and extraneous noise sources
to a large extent. This International Standard gives specifications to sound intensity and sound pressure
measurement. Depending on the level of the reverberation and extraneous noise, it provides the sound power level
either as A-weighted overall level or in octave or third-octave band. For grade 3 measurements, only the overall
A-weighted sound power level is available.
NOTE 6 ISO 9614-1 requires measurements of sound intensity and simultaneously sound pressure level (at
discrete points). In this case, the number of points is generally higher than the number of points used for the
standards based on sound pressure measurements.
NOTE 7 ISO 9614-2 requires measurement of sound intensity and simultaneously sound pressure level by scanning.
This can be made on partial or global surface depending on the configuration of the machine. The method generally
reduces the measurement time.
⎯ ISO/TR7849.
NOTE 8 ISO/TR 7849 is a technical report that can be used only when the prescriptions of the other methods are
not fulfilled. This method is based upon measurement of vibration velocity of the relevant parts of the pump or pump
unit. It provides an estimation of the A-weighted sound power level or sound power level in octave or third octave
bands.
For selection of the basic International Standard for determination of the sound power level of a pump, Table 1
for pumps (pump alone) and Table 2 for pump units shall be used.

5.2 Specific considerations for reference box, measurement surface, position of
microphones and intensity probe
5.2.1 General
When ISO 3744, ISO 3746 or ISO 9614 is used, 5.2.2 to 5.2.4 apply.
5.2.2 Reference box
The reference box is an hypothetical surface, the smallest simple volume (parallelepiped, box, cylinder, etc.)
containing the pump unit or pump and the flanges of the machine but excluding the pipings for the pump unit
and pipings, transmission elements and driver for pumps (pump alone) and small individual components of the
source that do not contribute to the sound radiation. For ISO 3744 and ISO 3746, the reference box is a
parallelepiped. The box encloses the source and terminates on the reflecting plane (hard ground or water).
For examples of reference boxes see Figures 1 and 2.

ISO 20361:2007(E) iv © ISO 2007 – All rights reserved 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 20361 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 115, Pumps. This corrected version of ISO 20361:2007 incorporates the removal of “FDIS” from the footer on the cover page and from the header on succeeding pages. kSIST prEN ISO 20361:2009



ISO 20361:2007(E) © ISO 2007 – All rights reserved vIntroduction The noise emitted by a pump unit can be radiated by the casing of the pump, the driving system (e.g. motor, gear box, coupling), the piping system and all the connected structures. On site, the perceived noise can be significantly increased by reverberation effects or by the radiation of extraneous sources. Depending on the type of pump it may be useful to know a) the noise of the pumping system (including piping); b) the noise of the pump unit, including the driver and the transmission elements but excluding the noise of the piping system; c) the noise emitted by the pump alone, excluding the noise from the driver, transmission elements and the pipings; d) the noise emitted by each of those elements in respect to a given requirement or in view of an efficient sound proofing of the installation. This International Standard describes methods for the determination of the noise emitted by a pump unit [case b)] or a pump alone [case c)]. Noise emission is expressed in terms of the sound power level of the machine and the emission sound pressure level at the relevant work station (see 6.2). This International Standard is intended to enable the manufacturer to ⎯ show the effectiveness of noise reduction, ⎯ declare the noise emission levels. This International Standard is a type C standard as stated in ISO 12100-1 and ISO 12100-2. When provisions of this type C standard are different from those which are stated in A or B standards, the provisions of this type C standard take precedence. The machinery concerned and the extent to which noise is covered are indicated in the scope of this International Standard.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 20361:2007(E) © ISO 2007 – All rights reserved 1Liquid pumps and pump units — Noise test code — Grades 2 and 3 of accuracy 1 Scope This International Standard specifies all the information necessary to carry out efficiently and under standardized conditions the determination, declaration and verification of the airborne noise emission of liquid pumps or pump units (see 4.1). It specifies the noise measurement methods and the operating and mounting conditions that shall be used for the test. Noise emission characteristics include emission sound pressure levels at specified positions and the sound power level. The determination of these quantities is necessary for ⎯ declaring the noise emission values, ⎯ purpose of noise control at source at the design stage. NOTE 1 The determination of these quantities is also necessary for comparing the noise emitted by liquid pumps on the market. The use of this International Standard ensures the reproducibility of the determination of the airborne noise-emission characteristics within specified limits determined by the grade of accuracy of the basic airborne noise measurement method used. Noise measurement methods according to this International Standard are engineering methods (grade 2) and survey methods (grade 3). This International Standard does not deal with the characterization of the structure-borne sound and liquid-borne noise generated by liquid pumps. NOTE 2 This International Standard is intended to complement EN 809, Pumps and pump units for liquids — Common safety requirements. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
