1、Designation: E 2202 02Standard Practice forMeasurement of Equipment-Generated Continuous Noise forAssessment of Health Hazards1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E 2202; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revisi

2、on, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This standard defines noise measurement procedures forestimating the risk of hearing loss among users

3、 of noiseproducing equipment. It is applicable to ground vehicles,aircraft, watercraft, and other mobile, transportable, or station-ary equipment.1.2 This standard does not recommend noise exposure limitlevels or criteria for any application discussed.1.3 This standard does not purport to address al

4、l of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Terminology3.1 Except as noted in Appendix X1, the terms and symbolsused in this practice are defined in Terminology C 634.3.2 The terms specific to nonmandatory Appendix X1 are inX1.2.4. Summary of Practice4.1 For most equipment generating steady noise, theA-wei

7、ghted and octave band levels are measured at locationsnormally occupied by personnel. The hazard contours aroundthe equipment are also determined in terms of A-weightedsound levels in decibels. In some cases, duty cycle testing isused to determine time-weighted average sound levels.4.2 The operating

8、 conditions for specific equipment typesare in sections as follows:4.2.1 Ground vehicles in 8.2 and 9.2.4.2.2 Construction and material handling equipment in 9.3.4.2.3 Watercraft in 9.4.4.2.4 Stationary equipment in 9.5.4.2.5 Helicopters in 9.6.5. Significance and Use5.1 This standard defines measur

9、ement procedures for esti-mating the risk of noise-induced hearing loss among users ofnoise producing equipment. It is applicable to ground vehicles,aircraft, watercraft, and mobile, transportable, and stationaryequipment. The primary approach is to separately measure thesound level at operator ear

10、locations for each normal operatingcondition. These levels can be combined with operational usescenarios and exposure criteria to define noise exposureseverity. The data can also be used to define hearing protectionrequirements or administrative controls to preclude hearinghazard.5.2 The practice ha

11、s the following limitations:5.2.1 The practice uses field portable measurement equip-ment.5.2.2 The practice produces data which may be comparedwith applicable criteria or limits if the limits are in terms of thequantities measured in this standard or which can be calculatedfrom the measured data.6.

15、rement instrumentation shall haveundergone a complete electro-acoustical calibration in accor-dance with manufacturers instruction no more than 1 yearprior to the noise measurement.6.2.2 The noise measurement instrumentation, includingmicrophones and filter sets, shall undergo an end to endcalibrati

16、on check with an acoustical calibrator prior to the startof the measurement, and after completion, on the day of themeasurement. If the sensitivity after the measurements differsfrom the sensitivity before the measurement by more than 0.5dB, the data shall be discarded.7. Test Environment7.1 Test Si

17、teEquipment shall be tested in its exact oper-ating location if the location is known and such testing isfeasible. When this is not possible, the test site shall be auniform flat paved surface or hemi-anechoic chamber. It shallbe free of reflecting surfaces such as buildings, trees, orhillsides with

18、in 30 m. A grass surface, free of ice, snow, orvegetation over 15 cm tall may be substituted if the equipmentis not normally operated on a paved surface.7.2 Background NoiseWhen practical, background noise,including wind noise, shall be at least 10 dB below that of theequipment noise being measured;

19、 however, background noiseshall always be at least 10 dB below the criteria. A windscreenshall be used at wind velocities of 10 km/h or more. Measure-ments shall not be made at wind velocities of 20 km/h or more.7.3 Surface and Grade for Vehicle TestingVehicles shallbe driven along a dry, smooth, pa

20、ved, and level road (1 %grade), free from gravel or other loose material. Vehicleshaving nonrubber-padded tracks shall be driven on level,compact earth. Measurements shall not be made when the roadsurface is wet, covered with snow or ice, or during precipita-tion.8. Measurement Location and Orientat

21、ion8.1 If possible, measure at the probable head position of theoccupant of interest with the occupant absent. If an operatormust be present to operate the equipment under test, measurethe operator position by placing the microphone 15 cm fromthe more exposed ear. If there is a wall or reflective su

22、rface lessthan 30 cm from that ear, measure midway between the ear andthe surface.8.2 For ground equipment or watercraft, sound measure-ments shall be made at:8.2.1 Each operator or crew position.8.2.2 Representative positions where one or more individu-als (for example, passengers) will be located,

23、 and8.2.3 Occasionally occupied positions during typical opera-tion or maintenance of the item or system.8.3 For aircraft sound measurements shall be made at ornear the head positions of all crew stations and at a represen-tative number of passenger stations. Whenever possible, mea-surements should

24、be made with the crew member or passengerabsent. The measurement shall be at the elevation of the centerof the head (80 cm above the seat reference point or, ifstanding, at 160 cm above the floor). If practical during eachmeasurement, the microphone shall be rotated in a 15 to 30 cmdiameter horizont

25、al circle with the microphone sensing ele-ment facing up.8.4 Noise ContoursWhere the steady-state sound levelaround stationary equipment is 85 dB(A) or greater, thedistances and directions from the noise source at which thesound level equals 85 dB(A) shall be determined. The 85dB(A) contours shall a

26、lso be determined for mobile equipmentwhich could, at times, be stationary. The 85 dB(A) contourshall be determined from measurements made around the noisesource at angular increments not greater than 45 degrees, andalso at the noisiest angle.NOTE 1The 85 dB(A) contour is the most commonly used. Cer

27、tainjurisdictions use other values such as 84 dB(A) or 90 dB(A). Forequipment capable of generating very high noise levels additionalcontours may be specified such as a 103 dB(A) contour within whichdouble hearing protection may be required by certain jurisdictions. Forthese cases, the appropriate c
