Abstract BS EN ISO 11203:1996 is yet another standard related to acoustics and the measurement of noise emitted by machinery and equipment. The full title of the standard is: "Acoustics - Noise emitted by machinery and equipment - Determination of emission sound pressure levels at a work station and at other specified positions from the sound power level." Let's break down what this standard is about: Acoustics: As with the previous standards, this one also falls within the field of acoustics, which deals with the study of sound and its measurement. Noise emitted by machinery and equipment: This standard is concerned with measuring the noise generated by various types of machinery and equipment during their operation. Determination of emission sound pressure levels: The primary focus of this standard is to provide methods and procedures for determining the sound pressure levels at specific positions, including the primary work station, based on the sound power level of the machinery or equipment. At a work station and at other specified positions: Like the previous standards, this standard considers measurements at the primary work station where the machinery is used and at other specified locations relevant for assessing noise exposure. From the sound power level: Instead of directly measuring the sound pressure at various positions, this standard provides a method to calculate or determine the sound pressure levels based on the sound power level of the machinery or equipment. Sound power level is a characteristic of the noise source itself.
