What is BS EN 415-9 - Noise measurements for packaging machines about?
Noise emission characteristics include data such as emission sound pressure levels at work stations and at other specified positions and sound power emitted by machines.
BS EN 415-9 specifies all the information necessary to carry out efficiently and under defined conditions the determination, information and verification of airborne noise emission from packaging machines covered by EN 415-1.
BS EN 415-9 applies to machines covered by EN 415-1 as well as for any other packaging machine which is not covered by any other specific noise test code as well as for machines being part of the packaging line. In such cases, all information relating to the assembly, installation and to operating conditions as well as the arrangement of the work station shall be recorded and reported in the test report.
Who is BS EN 415-9 - Noise measurements for packaging machines for?
BS EN 415-9 on noise measurements for packaging machines is useful for:
- Packaging machine manufacturers
- Warehouse owners
- Quality control personnel
- Inspection bodies
- Goods packaging and distribution industries
- Safety bodies for packaging machines
Why should you use BS EN 415-9 - Noise measurements for packaging machines?
Noise emission values permit the comparison of packaging machines on the market. Noise emission characteristics can be used to determine the noise emitted by the machine, to inform on the noise emitted by the machine, and to verify the noise emitted by the machine.
BS EN 415-9 provides you with procedures for the determination of emission sound pressure levels at work stations, at other specified positions and the sound power level on the basis of both the sound pressure level method and the sound intensity method. BS EN 415-9 guides you with installation and operating conditions.
BS EN 415-9 guidelines help to ensure the reproducibility of the determination of the characteristic noise emissions values within specific limits which will be determined by the grade of accuracy of the noise emission measuring method used.
