BS EN ISO 11204:1996 is an international standard within the field of acoustics, specifically dealing with the measurement of noise emitted by machinery and equipment. The full title of the standard is: "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." Let's break down the key components of this standard: Acoustics: As previously mentioned, this standard falls under the domain of acoustics, which is the study of sound and its properties. Noise emitted by machinery and equipment: The standard focuses on quantifying and assessing the noise produced by various types of machinery and equipment when they are in operation. This is important for understanding and managing the acoustic environment in workplaces and other settings. Measurement of emission sound pressure levels: The standard provides specific procedures and techniques for measuring the sound pressure levels generated by machinery and equipment. These measurements are typically taken at the primary work station where the machinery is used and at other designated positions. Method requiring environmental corrections: This standard recognizes the influence of environmental conditions on sound propagation and, consequently, the accuracy of noise measurements. Environmental factors like temperature, humidity, and atmospheric conditions can affect how sound travels and is perceived. To ensure accuracy and consistency, this standard specifies a method that requires adjustments or corrections to account for these environmental variables when conducting noise measurements.
