Acoustics - Noise emitted by machinery and equipment - Measurement of emission sound pressure levels at a work station and at other specified positions - Method requiring environmental corrections (ISO 11204:1995, including Cor 1:1997)

This International Standard specifies a method for measuring the emission sound pressure levels of machinery and equipment, at a work station and at other specified positions nearby, in any environment which meets certain qualification requirements. Emission sound pressure levels are measured as Aweighted and, if required, C-weighted peak, and in frequency bands. NOTE 1 The contents of this and related International Standards are summarized in table 1 of IS0 11 ZOO:1 995. A method is given for determining a local environmental correction (the acceptable maximum value of which is specified) to be applied to the measured sound pressure levels to exclude the effects of reflections from reflecting surfaces other than the plane on which the machinery or equipment is placed. This correction is based upon the mean sound pressure level on a measurement surface, the sound pressure level measured at a specified position, and either an environmental indicator or the equivalent absorption area of the test room. The grade of accuracy of the measurements (engineering or survey) depends upon the vaule of the local environmental correction. A work station is occupied by an operator. It may be located in open space in the room where the source operates, or in a cab fixed to the source, or in an enclosure remote from the source. One or more specified positions may be located in the vicinity of an attended or unattended machine. Such positions are sometimes referred to as bystander positions.
This International Standard specifies requirements on the test environment. Instructions are given for the installation and operation of the machine under test and for the choice of microphone positions for the work station and for other specified positions. The purpose of the measurements is to permit comparison of the performance of different units of a given family of machinery or equipment, under defined environmental conditions and standardized mounting and operating conditions. The data obtained may also be used for the declaration and verification of emission sound pressure levels as specified in IS0 4871. NOTE 2 At any given position in relation to a particular machine, and for given mounting and operating conditions, the emission sound pressure levels determined by the method of this International Standard will in general be lower than the directly measured sound pressure levels for the same machine in the typical workroom where it is used. This is due to reverberation and the contributions of other machines. A method of calculating the sound pressure levels in the vicinity of a machine operating alone in a workroom is given in IS0 11690-3. Commonly observed differences are 1 dB to 5 dB, but in extreme cases the difference may be even greater.

L'IEC 60695-10-3:2016 spécifie un essai de déformation par réduction des contraintes de moulage. Elle est applicable aux matériels électrotechniques, y compris les parties composées de matériaux polymères. Cette méthode d'essai est destinée à évaluer les effets provoqués par la réduction des contraintes résiduelles induites par traitement, se produisant dans un assemblage polymère moulé d'un produit final. Cette réduction de contraintes se produit lorsque l'échantillon (sous ou hors tension) est exposé au conditionnement à une température définie pendant une période de temps définie. L'éprouvette d'essai est considérée comme ayant satisfait à l'essai si, après le conditionnement à température ambiante, elle satisfait aux critères d'essai définis. La présente publication fondamentale de sécurité est essentiellement destinée à être utilisée par les comités d'études dans le cadre de l'élaboration de normes conformément aux principes établis dans le Guide IEC 104 et le Guide ISO/IEC 51. Elle n'est pas destinée à être utilisée par les fabricants ou les organismes de certification. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente:

Foreword
IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide
federation of national standards bodies (IS0 member bodies). The work
of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through IS0
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. IS0
collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission
(IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
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.
International Standard IS0 11204 was prepared by Technical Committee

Introduction
0.1 This International Standard specifies a method for measuring the
emission sound pressure levels at a work station and at other specified
positions in the vicinity of a machine or piece of equipment. The method
specified in this International Standard follows the method specified in
IS0 11201 (engineering method), except for the following:
measurements are permitted in situ; and
a)
b) a method is specified for determining a local environmental correction
which yields results approximating those obtained in a free field over
a reflecting plane. This correction is used to derive the emission sound
pressure levels at specified positions, including work stations. If this
correction is less than the specified value, the results meet the engi-
neering grade of accuracy, but otherwise they meet the survey grade.
0.2 This International Standard is one of a series (IS0 11200 to
IS0 11204) which specifies various methods for determining the noise
emissions of a piece of machinery or equipment, or a sub-assembly of
such equipment (machine under test). IS0 11200 gives guidance on the
choice of the method to be used to determine the emission sound
pressure levels of machinery and equipment. It also gives details of Inter-
national Standards giving methods for the determination of sound power
levels.

IS0 11204:1995(E) Foreword IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (IS0 member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through IS0 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. IS0 collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. 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.

0 IS0 IS0 11204:1995(E) Introduction 0.1 This International Standard specifies a method for measuring the emission sound pressure levels at a work station and at other specified positions in the vicinity of a machine or piece of equipment. The method specified in this International Standard follows the method specified in IS0 11201 (engineering method), except for the following: a) measurements are permitted in situ; and b) a method is specified for determining a local environmental correction which yields results approximating those obtained in a free field over a reflecting plane. This correction is used to derive the emission sound pressure levels at specified positions, including work stations. If this correction is less than the specified value, the results meet the engi- neering grade of accuracy, but otherwise they meet the survey grade. 0.2 This International Standard is one of a series (IS0 11200 to IS0 11204) which specifies various methods for determining the noise emissions of a piece of machinery or equipment, or a sub-assembly of such equipment (machine under test). IS0 11200 gives guidance on the choice of the method to be used to determine the emission sound pressure levels of machinery and equipment. It also gives details of Inter- national Standards giving methods for the determination of sound power levels. III kSIST FprEN ISO 11204:2009

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD 0 IS0 IS0 11204:1995(E) Acoustics - Noise emitted by machinery and equipment - Measurement of emission sound pressure levels at a work station and at other specified positions - Method requiring environmental corrections 1 Scope 1.1 General This International Standard specifies a method for measuring the emission sound pressure levels of machinery and equipment, at a work station and at other specified positions nearby, in any environment which meets certain qualification requirements. Emission sound pressure levels are measured as A- weighted and, if required, C-weighted peak, and in frequency bands. NOTE 1 The contents of this and related International Standards are summarized in table 1 of IS0 11 ZOO:1 995. A method is given for determining a local environ- mental correction (the acceptable maximum value of which is specified) to be applied to the measured sound pressure levels to exclude the effects of re- flections from reflecting surfaces other than the plane on which the machinery or equipment is placed. This correction is based upon the mean sound pressure level on a measurement surface, the sound pressure level measured at a specified position, and either an environmental indicator or the equivalent absorption area of the test room. The grade of accuracy of the measurements (engineering or survey) depends upon the vaule of the local environmental correction. A work station is occupied by an operator. It may be located in open space in the room where the source operates, or in a cab fixed to the source, or in an en- closure remote from the source. One or more speci- fied positions may be located in the vicinity of an attended or unattended machine. Such positions are sometimes referred to as bystander positions. This International Standard specifies requirements on the test environment. Instructions are given for the installation and operation of the machine under test and for the choice of microphone positions for the work station and for other specified positions. The purpose of the measurements is to permit compar- ison of the performance of different units of a given family of machinery or equipment, under defined en- vironmental conditions and standardized mounting and operating conditions. The data obtained may also be used for the declaration and verification of emis- sion sound pressure levels as specified in IS0 4871. NOTE 2 At any given position in relation to a particular machine, and for given mounting and operating conditions, the emission sound pressure levels determined by the method of this International Standard will in general be lower than the directly measured sound pressure levels for the same machine in the typical workroom where it is used. This is due to reverberation and the contributions of other machines. A method of calculating the sound pressure lev- els in the vicinity of a machine operating alone in a workroom is given in IS0 11690-3. Commonly observed differences are 1 dB to 5 dB, but in extreme cases the dif- ference may be even greater. 1.2 Types of noise and noise sources The method specified in this International Standard is applicable to all types of machinery, both moving and stationary, for indoor or outdoor use. kSIST FprEN ISO 11204:2009



IS0 11204:1995(E) 0 IS0 The method is applicable to machines of all sizes, and to all types of noise as defined in IS0 2204 and IS0 12001. 1.3 Test environment The method is applicable to an indoor or outdoor en- vironment with one or more reflecting planes present, meeting specified requirements. 1.4 Specified positions This International Standard is applicable to work stations and other specified positions where emission sound pressure levels are to be measured. Examples of appropriate positions where ments may be made include the following: measure- a) work station located in the vicinity of the machine under test; this is the case for many industrial machines and domestic appliances; b) work station within a cab which is an integral part of the machine under test; this is the case for many industrial trucks and earth-moving ma- chines; c) work station within a partial or total enclosure (or behind a screen) supplied by the manufacturer as an integral part of the machinery or equipment; d) work station partially or totally enclosed by the machine under test; this situation may be en- countered with some large industrial machines; e) bystander positions occupied by individuals not responsible for the operation of the machine under test, but who may be in its immediate vi- cinity, either occasionally or continuously; f) other specified positions, not necessarily work stations or bystander positions. The work station may also lie on a specified path along which an operator moves (see 11.4). 15 . Measurement uncertainty While it is not possible to give universal values for the standard deviation of reproducibility of emission sound pressure levels at work stations, guidance is given in clause 4. 2 Normative references The following standards contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this International Standard.

The basic noise emission descriptors are the sound power level of the source itself and the emission sound pressure levels at a work station and/or at other specified positions (if any) in the vicinity of the source. NOTES 5 In general, the subscripts eq and T are omitted since time-averaged emission sound pressure levels are necess- arily determined over a certain measurement time interval. 3.2 emission sound pressure, p: The sound press- ure, 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, excluding the effects of background noise as well as the effects of reflections other than those from the plane or planes permitted for the purpose of the test.

The position can be a single, fixed point, or a combination of points along a path or on a surface located at a specified distance from the machine, as described in the relevant noise test code, if any exists. NOTE 8 Positions located in the vicinity of a work station, or in the vicinity of an unattended machine, may be ident- ified as “bystander positions”. 3.9 operational period: Interval of time during which a specified process is accomplished by the machine under test (e.g. for a dishwasher when washing or rinsing or drying). 3.10 operational cycle: Specific sequence of oper- ational periods occurring while the machine under test performs a complete work cycle.

In the case of A-weighting, it is denoted KzA (see the IS0 3740 series). 3.17 local environmental correction, KS: A cor- rection term to account for the influence of reflected sound on the emission sound pressure level at a specified position (e.g. a work station) for the machine under test. K3 is dependent upon both frequency and position and is expressed in decibels. In the case of A-weighting, it is denoted I&. 4 Measurement uncertainty A single value of an emission sound pressure level of a noise source determined in accordance with the method specified in this International Standard is likely to differ from the true value at a fixed position by an amount within the range of the measurement uncer- tainty. The uncertainty in measurements of emission sound pressure levels arises from several factors which affect the results, some associated with en- vironmental conditions in the measurement room and others with experimental techniques. The measurement uncertainty depends on the stan- dard deviation of reproducibility and on the degree of confidence that is desired. Extensive measurement data are necessary in order to establish standard de- viations of reproducibility of emission sound pressure levels at individual positions and, in any case, these standard deviations are likely to vary considerably be- tween the many different types of machinery and equipment to which this International Standard is ap- plicable. It is therefore not possible to provide infor- mation which is universally applicable, and reference can only be made to noise test codes for relevant data on individual types of noise source. The method described in this International Standard yields different degrees of accuracy depending upon the specified position and the related local environ- mental correction. If I&A is less than or equal to 2 dB, the degree of accuracy is that of an engineering method. If KS* is greater than 2 dB, but less than or equal to 7 dB, the degree of accuracy is that of a survey method. The accuracy is position dependent. A value of the standard deviation of reproducibility equal to or less than 2,5 dB (excluding variations in operating and mounting conditions) for engineering grade measurements, and equal to or less than 5 dB for survey grade measurements can be expected for the A-weighted emission sound pressure level of a 4 kSIST FprEN ISO 11204:2009



0 IS0 IS0 11204:1995(E) source which emits noise with a relatively “flat” spectrum in the frequency range 100 Hz to IO 000 Hz. The given value for the standard deviation of reproducibility is a maximum value, but for a well- defined family of machines, it may be smaller. For example, for one family of woodworking machines, it has been shown that the standard deviation of reproducibility is equal to I,0 dB. 5 Instrumentation The instrumentation system, including the micro- phone and cable, shall meet the requirements for a class 1 instrument specified in IEC 651 or, in the case of integrating-averaging sound level meters, in IEC 804. For measurements in octave or one-third-octave bands, the filters shall meet the requirements of IEC 1260. Before and after each series of measurements, a sound calibrator with an accuracy of + 0,3 dB (class 1 as specified in IEC 942) shall be applied to the microphone to verify the calibration of the entire measuring system at one or more frequencies over the frequency range of interest. The compliance of the calibrator with the require- ments of IEC 942 shall be verified once a year. The compliance of the instrumentation system with the requirements of IEC 651 (or, in the case of integrating-averaging systems, with the requirements of IEC 804) shall be verified at least every 2 years. The date of the last verification of the compliance with the relevant IEC standards shall be recorded. 6.3 Enclosed work station positions When the operator is located in an enclosed cab or in an enclosure remote from the machine under test, the cab or enclosure is regarded as an integral part of the machine under test and, consequently, sound re- flections inside the cab or enclosure are considered contributions to the emission sound pressure level. No environmental corrections are permitted. During noise emission measurements, doors and windows of the cabin or enclosure shall be open or closed as defined in the noise test code for the ma- chinery or equipment being measured. NOTE 10 Because of the instrumentation and back- ground noise level requirements of this International Stan- dard, the measurements will comply with engineering grade requirements and accuracy (see IS0 11201). If the work station or bystander’s position of the ma- chine is located inside a cab or a cabin, an additional “conventional” work station or bystander’s position outside the cab or cabin (e.g. for maintenance) in the vicinity of machine under test shall be specified in the noise test code. 6.4 Criterion for background noise At the microphone position(s), the background noise (including wind noise at the microphone) measured as a weighted sound pressure level or in each of the frequency bands of interest shall be at least 6 dB (and preferably more than 15 dB) below the level due to the machine under test. Corrections for background noise in decibels are given by the following equation: K, = - IO Ig (1 - 10-“.‘hL) dB . . .
