Acoustics - Noise emitted by machinery and equipment - Determination of emission sound pressure levels at a work station and at other specified positions in an essentially free field over a reflecting plane with negligible environmental corrections (ISO 11201:2010)

This International Standard specifies a method for determining the emission sound pressure levels of machinery or equipment, at a work station and at other specified positions nearby, in an essentially free field over a reflecting plane. A work station is occupied by an operator and may be located in open space, in the room where the source under test operates, in a cab fixed to the source under test, or in an enclosure remote from the source under test. One or more specified positions may be located in the vicinity of a work station, or in the vicinity of an attended or unattended machine. Such positions are sometimes referred to as bystander positions. Emission sound pressure levels are determined as A-weighted levels. Additionally, levels in frequency bands and C-weighted peak emission sound pressure levels can be determined in accordance with this International Standard, if required.

Akustik - Geräuschabstrahlung von Maschinen und Geräten - Messung von Emissions-Schalldruckpegeln am Arbeitsplatz und an anderen festgelegten Orten in einem im Wesentlichen freien Schallfeld über einer reflektierenden Ebene mit vernachlässigbaren Umgebungskorrekturen (ISO 11201:2010)

Diese Internationale Norm legt ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung der Emissions-Schalldruckpegel von
Maschinen oder Geräten am Arbeitsplatz und an anderen, sich in der Nähe befindenden, festgelegten Orten
in einem im Wesentlichen freien Schallfeld über einer reflektierenden Ebene fest. Ein Arbeitsplatz wird von
einer Bedienungsperson eingenommen; er kann sich im Freien, in einem Raum, in dem die untersuchte
Quelle betrieben wird, in einer Kabine, die fest mit der untersuchten Quelle verbunden ist, oder in einem von
der untersuchten Quelle entfernt liegenden Bedienerstand befinden. Einer oder mehrere der festgelegten Orte
können in der Umgebung eines Arbeitsplatzes oder im Umfeld einer bedienten oder unbeaufsichtigt
betriebenen Maschine liegen. Derartige Orte werden gelegentlich als „Nachbararbeitsplätze“ bezeichnet.
Emissions-Schalldruckpegel werden als A-bewertete Pegel bestimmt. Falls erforderlich, können zusätzlich
Pegel in Frequenzbändern und C-bewertete Emissions-Spitzenschalldruckpegel nach dieser Internationalen
Norm ermittelt werden.
ANMERKUNG 1 Der Inhalt der Normreihe ISO 11200 [15] bis ISO 11205 [19] ist in ISO 11200 [15] zusammengefasst.
Mit dem in dieser Internationalen Norm festgelegten Verfahren werden Ergebnisse der Genauigkeitsklasse 1
oder der Genauigkeitsklasse 2 erzielt. Korrekturen werden bezüglich des Fremdgeräuschs vorgenommen,
nicht aber bezüglich der akustischen Umgebung. Es werden Anweisungen für die Aufstellung und den Betrieb
der untersuchten Quelle und für die Wahl der Mikrofonpositionen am Arbeitsplatz und den anderen festgelegten
Orten gegeben. Ein Zweck der Messungen besteht darin, einen Vergleich der Daten unterschiedlicher
Exemplare aus einer bestimmten Maschinengruppe unter festgelegten Umgebungsbedingungen und
genormten Aufstellungs- und Betriebsbedingungen zu ermöglichen.
ANMERKUNG 2 Die erhaltenen Daten können auch für die Angabe und Nachprüfung von Emissions-Schalldruckpegeln
nach ISO 4871 [8] verwendet werden.

Acoustique - Bruit émis par les machines et équipements - Mesurage des niveaux de pression acoustique d'émission au poste de travail et en d'autres positions spécifiées dans des conditions approchant celles du champ libre sur plan réfléchissant avec des corrections d'environnement négligeables (ISO 11201:2010)

L'ISO 11201:2010 spécifie une méthode de détermination des niveaux de pression acoustique d'émission des machines ou de l'équipement au poste de travail et en d'autres positions spécifiées proches, dans des conditions approchant celles du champ libre sur plan réfléchissant. Le poste de travail occupé par un opérateur peut être situé dans un espace ouvert, dans la salle où la source soumise à essai fonctionne, dans une cabine fixée à la source soumise à essai ou dans une enceinte située à distance de la source soumise à essai. Une ou plusieurs positions spécifiées peuvent se situer au voisinage du poste de travail ou d'une machine avec ou sans opérateur. Ces positions sont parfois appelées «positions d'assistant».
Les niveaux de pression acoustique d'émission sont déterminés en tant que niveaux pondérés A. En outre, les niveaux par bandes de fréquences et les niveaux de pression acoustique d'émission de crête pondérés C peuvent être déterminés selon l'ISO 11201:2010, si nécessaire.
La méthode spécifiée dans l'ISO 11201:2010 permet d'obtenir des résultats de classe de précision 1 (laboratoire) ou de classe de précision 2 (expertise). Des corrections sont appliquées pour le bruit de fond mais pas pour l'environnement acoustique. Des instructions sont fournies pour le montage et le fonctionnement de la source soumise à essai ainsi que pour le choix des positions du microphone pour le poste de travail et pour d'autres positions spécifiées. Un des objets des mesurages est de permettre la comparaison des performances de différentes unités d'une famille donnée de machines, dans des conditions d'environnement définies et dans des conditions de montage et de fonctionnement normalisées.
La méthode spécifiée dans l'ISO 11201:2010 convient à tous les types de bruits (continus, discontinus, fluctuants, pics d'énergie acoustique isolés, etc.) définis dans l'ISO 12001.
La méthode spécifiée dans l'ISO 11201:2010 s'applique à tous les types et toutes les tailles de sources de bruit.
Le type d'environnement d'essai affecte la précision de la détermination des niveaux de pression acoustique d'émission. Pour l'application de l'ISO 11201:2010, les conditions approchant celles du champ libre sur plan réfléchissant (en salle ou en plein air) sont nécessaires.
L'ISO 11201:2010 s'applique aux postes de travail et aux autres positions spécifiées auxquels les niveaux de pression acoustique d'émission doivent être mesurés.
Les positions appropriées où les mesurages peuvent être effectués incluent les positions suivantes: a) poste de travail situé au voisinage de la source soumise à essai, ce qui est le cas de nombreuses machines industrielles et de nombreux appareils domestiques; b) poste de travail à l'intérieur d'une cabine faisant partie intégrante de la machine soumise à essai; ce qui est le cas de nombreux véhicules industriels et engins de terrassement; c) poste de travail à l'intérieur d'une enceinte partielle ou totale (ou derrière un écran), fournie par le fabricant en tant que partie intégrante de la machine ou de l'équipement; d) poste de travail partiellement ou complètement entouré par la source soumise à essai, comme c'est parfois le cas avec certaines machines industrielles de grandes dimensions; e) postes d'assistant occupés par des personnes non responsables du fonctionnement de la source soumise à essai, mais qui peuvent se trouver, occasionnellement ou en continu, à proximité immédiate de la machine; f) d'autres positions spécifiées, qui ne sont

Ta mednarodni standard določa metodo merjenja emisijske ravni zvočnega tlaka strojev ali opreme na delovnem mestu in na drugih bližnjih opredeljenih mestih v pretežno prostem zvočnem polju nad odbojno ravnino. Delovno mesto zaseda operater in je lahko locirano na prostem, v sobi, kjer vir, ki je preskušan, deluje, v kabini, pritrjeni na vir, ki je preskušan, ali ograjenem prostoru, ki je oddaljen od vira, ki je preskušan. Ena ali več določeni pozicij je lahko lociranih v bližini delovnega mesta, ali v bližini nadzorovanega ali nenadzorovanega stroja. Takšne pozicije se včasih omenja kot gledalske pozicije. Stopnje emisij zvočnega tlaka so določene kot A-ovrednotene stopnje. Poleg tega, če je potrebno, se stopnje v frekvenčnih pasovih in stopenj C-ovrednotenih vrhov zvočnega tlaka lahko določijo v skladu s tem mednarodnim standardom.

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.

Introduction
This International Standard specifies a method for determining the emission sound pressure levels at a work
station and at other well defined positions, in the vicinity of a machine or piece of equipment, in an essentially
[15] [19]
free field over a reflecting plane. It is one of a series (ISO 11200 to ISO 11205 ) which specifies various
methods for determining the emission sound pressure level at a work station and at other specified positions
[15]
of a machine or equipment. ISO 11200 gives guidance on the choice of the method to be used to
determine the emission sound pressure levels of machinery and equipment.
The method specified in this International Standard differs from those in other International Standards in the
[15] [19]
ISO 11200 to ISO 11205 series in not applying any environmental correction. Requirements to be
fulfilled by the environment are specified for accuracy grade 1 (precision) and grade 2 (engineering)
measurements indoors and outdoors.
Precision measurements with accuracy grade 1 can generally be carried out in hemi-anechoic test rooms or
outdoors provided that requirements on environmental conditions are met. With the specifications defined in
the following it should be possible in some cases to provide such conditions in industrial ambience on larger
plane areas outdoors free from reflecting objects.
ISO 11201:1995 provided results of accuracy grade 2 only. This edition of this International Standard provides
a method of accuracy grade 2 that is essentially identical to that given in ISO 11201:1995. It also provides a
more precise method of accuracy grade 1. Users and drafters of noise test codes referring to this International
Standard should indicate clearly which method (accuracy grade 1 or accuracy grade 2) is used.
In general, the emission sound pressure levels are less than or equal to those that occur when the machinery
or equipment is operating in its normal surroundings. This is because the sound pressure levels are
determined by excluding the effects of background noise, as well as the effects of reflections other than those
from the reflecting plane on which the machine under test is placed. For determination or calculation of the
sound pressure level at the operator's position with the machine operating in a room, both sound power level
and sound pressure level are required (as well as information on the room properties or reflections and noise
from other sound sources or machines). A method of calculating the sound pressure levels in the vicinity of a
[20]
machine operating alone in a workroom is given in ISO/TR 11690-3 . Commonly observed differences are
1 dB to 5 dB, but in extreme cases the difference may be even greater.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 11201:2010(E)

Acoustics — Noise emitted by machinery and equipment —
Determination of emission sound pressure levels at a work
station and at other specified positions in an essentially free
field over a reflecting plane with negligible environmental
corrections
1 Scope
1.1 General
This International Standard specifies a method for determining the emission sound pressure levels of
machinery or equipment, at a work station and at other specified positions nearby, in an essentially free field
over a reflecting plane. A work station is occupied by an operator and may be located in open space, in the
room where the source under test operates, in a cab fixed to the source under test, or in an enclosure remote
from the source under test. One or more specified positions may be located in the vicinity of a work station, or
in the vicinity of an attended or unattended machine. Such positions are sometimes referred to as bystander
positions.
Emission sound pressure levels are determined as A-weighted levels. Additionally, levels in frequency bands
and C-weighted peak emission sound pressure levels can be determined in accordance with this International
Standard, if required.
[15] [19] [15]
NOTE 1 The contents of the series ISO 11200 to ISO 11205 are summarized in ISO 11200 .
With the method specified in this International Standard, results of accuracy grade 1 (precision grade) or
accuracy grade 2 (engineering grade) are obtained. Corrections are applied for background noise, but not for
the acoustic environment. Instructions are given for the mounting and operation of the source under test and
for the choice of microphone positions for the work station and for other specified positions. One purpose of
the measurements is to permit comparison of the performance of different units of a given family of machines,
under defined environmental conditions and standardized mounting and operating conditions.
NOTE 2 The data obtained can also be used for the declaration and verification of emission sound pressure levels as
[8]
specified in ISO 4871 .
1.2 Types of noise and noise sources
The method specified in this International Standard is suitable for all types of noise (steady, non-steady,
fluctuating, isolated bursts of sound energy, etc.) defined in ISO 12001.
The method specified in this International Standard is applicable to all types and sizes of noise sources.
NOTE Throughout this International Standard the words “machine” and “source under test” are used to represent
either a machine or a piece of equipment.

1.3 Test environment
The type of test environment influences the accuracy of the determination of emission sound pressure levels.
For the application of this International Standard, an essentially free field over a reflecting plane (indoors or
outdoors) is required.
1.4 Work station and other specified positions
This International Standard is applicable to work stations and other specified positions where emission sound
pressure levels are to be determined.
Appropriate positions where measurements may be made include the following:
a) work station located in the vicinity of the source 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 source under test; this is the case for many
industrial trucks and earth-moving machines;
c) work station within a partial or total enclosure (or behind a screen) supplied by the manufacturer as an
integral part of the source under test;
d) work station partially or totally enclosed by the source under test — this situation may be encountered
with some large industrial machines;
e) bystander positions occupied by individuals not responsible for the operation of the source under test, but
who may be in its immediate vicinity, 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 9.4).

NOTE 1 Adapted from ISO/TR 25417:2007 , 2.3, “time-averaged sound pressure level”.
NOTE 2 For simplicity of notation, the subscript T is omitted throughout the following text.
NOTE 3 If specific frequency and time weightings as specified in IEC 61672-1 and/or specific frequency bands are
applied, this is indicated by appropriate subscripts; e.g. L denotes the A-weighted emission sound pressure level.

NOTE 4 Equation (2) is equivalent to that for the environmental noise descriptor “equivalent continuous sound pressure
[1]
level” (ISO 1996-1 ). However, the emission quantity defined above is used to characterize the noise emitted by a source
under test and assumes that standardized measurement and operating conditions as well as a controlled acoustical
environment are used for the measurements.

acoustic free field over a reflecting plane
sound field in a homogeneous, isotropic medium in the half space above an infinite reflecting plane, in the
absence of any other obstacles
3.9
essentially free field over a reflecting plane
environment approximating an acoustic free field over a reflecting plane on which the noise source under test
is located
NOTE The requirements on the environment are specified in 5.2.

frequency range of interest
for general purposes, the frequency range of octave bands with nominal mid-band frequencies from 125 Hz to
8 000 Hz or the one-third octave bands with nominal mid-band frequencies from 100 Hz to 10 000 Hz
[9]
NOTE 1 Adapted from ISO 6926:1999 , 3.10.
NOTE 2 For special purposes, the frequency range may be extended or reduced, provided that the test environment
and instrument specifications are satisfactory for use over the modified frequency range. Changes to the frequency range
of interest should be made clear in the test report. For sources which emit sound at predominantly high or low frequencies,
the frequency range of interest should be extended to include these frequencies.
