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 commit

ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotech

In particular the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted

26、home electrical appliances, information and telecommunication products, office-automation equipment, heating equipment, toys, sanitary equipment, and health care products. Some products use spoken announcements to provide instructions in indoor and outdoor public areas such as ticket vending machine
27、s, elevators, and escalators. Public address systems are often installed to provide spoken announcements. Such announcements can be indistinct to listeners because of hearing loss that can occur with ageing or because of ambient noise in the surroundings.This International Standard specifies methods
28、 for determining an appropriate sound level range of spoken announcements so that all listeners, including people with age-related hearing loss, can hear them properly against ambient noises. This sound level range specification was determined based on results of experiments in which people of diffe
29、rent ages participated. Spoken announcements for which sound pressure levels are within the range specified in this International Standard are expected to be audible and comfortably loud for most users in the presence of ambient noise.This International Standard is intended to be applied as necessar
30、y to products depending on the product type and its conditions of use. It does not apply to spoken announcements used for evacuation or emergency purposes.ISO 9921 specifies recommended levels of speech-communication quality necessary for conveying comprehensive messages in different applications. T
31、herefore, ISO 9921 differs from this International Standard.This International Standard adopts the principles of accessible design from ISO/IEC Guide 71, which are amplified in ISO/TR 22411.

32、sure levels of spoken announcements for products and public address systems1 ScopeThis International Standard specifies methods to determine an appropriate sound pressure level range for spoken announcements in environments where ambient noise is less than 80 dB. The specified methods follow the con
33、cepts of ISO/IEC Guide 71 and includes consideration of older persons with decreased hearing ability to determine sound pressure levels of spoken announcements. The spoken speech levels that are specified in this International Standard are for products and public-address systems. To improve the acce
34、ssibility and usability of products, spoken announcements must not only be audible but also presented at comfortable speech levels.The target products that present spoken announcements are consumer products such as electronic home appliances, information and communication technology services, and pr
35、oducts providing services for general users in public facilities indoors and outdoors such as train stations, airports, meeting rooms, amusement parks, and fairs.This International Standard is not applicable to products providing private information such as automated teller machines in public spaces
36、.This International Standard is applicable when a loudspeaker producing a spoken announcement is located a short distance from the user in an environment where the sound pressure level with a standard frequency weighting A of ambient noise does not exceed 80 dB. This International Standard is applic
37、able to spoken announcements that are audible to persons with normal hearing for their age when presented by a target product under quiet and anechoic conditions. This International Standard is applicable for both recorded voice and synthetic speech announcements.This International Standard does not
38、 specify sound pressure levels of spoken announcements for systems with automatic sound pressure level control to compensate for fluctuating ambient noise levels. This International Standard is not applicable to spoken announcements heard through headphones or earphones, or to spoken announcements h
39、eard with the ear close to the speech sound source, such as in ear speakers specified in IEC 60268-7. This International Standard considers only the audibility of speech and not the process of speech understanding.This International Standard does not specify the sound pressure levels of spoken annou
40、ncements presented in emergency situations such as signals for fire alarms, gas leakage, and crime prevention; those are covered in ISO 7240-16 and ISO 7240-19. This International Standard does not specify the sound pressure levels of spoken announcements in automobiles; those are covered in ISO 150
41、06.NOTE 1 A spoken announcement presented in a repetitive manner from a product such as electronic home appliance is presumed to be heard as an auditory sign but not as a message and is therefore usable with a lower sound pressure level of the spoken announcement than this International Standard spe
42、cifies.NOTE 2 It is known that the word recognition performance of native speakers of the language of the announcement is better than that of non-native speakers.2 Normative referencesThe following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for
