− the supply voltage of mains powered machines is measured at the plug of the cable or cord supplied, not at the plug of any extension cable or cord BS EN 50636-2-100:2014 - 37 - EN 50636-2-100:2014 For electric motors supplied from batteries: − noise measurements shall be started with fully charged batteries as specified by the User Instructions but shall not be continued when the battery voltage under load drops to lower than 0,9 times the battery voltage under load at the beginning of the measurements for lead-acid batteries, or to lower than 0,8 times for other batteries; − the battery voltage shall be measured at the battery terminals During the test the fan and shredding means shall be engaged and unloaded Measurements shall be made with maximum motor speed lf the machine has a governor which is below that speed, the measurement shall be made at the maximum revolution speed stipulated by the user instructions with the shredding means engaged Adjustable handle(s) shall be set to the mid-position If a harness is provided, it shall be used during the test The machine handle(s) shall be held in the normal operating position with the plane of the shredding means parallel or perpendicular to the ground, as appropriate, at a height of (50 + 25) mm A motor speed indicator shall be used to check the speed of the motor It shall have an accuracy of ± 2,5 % of the reading The indicator and its engagement with the machine shall not affect the operation during the test Use a fixture, which holds the machine in the intended position and does not cause any reflections NOTE A flexible mount is recommended to avoid any structural resonance a) Machines with a suspension point: The machine shall be attached to the test fixture so that the suspension point is (775 ± 10) mm above the ground The lowest point of the air nozzle shall be so that H is (50 ± 25) mm above the ground, see Figure CC.2 If the suspension point is adjustable select the position so that dimension H is within the required range b) Machines without suspension point: The machine shall be attached to the test fixture so that the middle of the grip position of the handle is (775 ± 10) mm above the ground The lowest point of the air nozzle shall be so that H is (50 ± 25) mm above the ground See Figure CC.3 The machine shall be oriented so that the air nozzle is pointing along and over the x-axis and the centre of the motor is above the centre point for the hemisphere The measurement time shall be at least 15 s For the sound power level determination, the cutting device shall be above the centre of the hemisphere BS EN 50636-2-100:2014 EN 50636-2-100:2014 CC.6 - 38 - Measurement uncertainties The total measurement uncertainty of the emission sound pressure level respectively sound power level is depending on the standard deviation σ R0 given by the applied noise emission measurement method and the uncertainty associated with the instability of the operating and mounting conditions σ omc The resulting total uncertainty is then calculated from the following formula: σ tot = σR2 + σomc NOTE σ tot was formerly denoted as σR! The upper bound value of σ R0 is about 1,5 dB for a grade measurement method, assuming a noise source which emits sound without significant tones NOTE For machines with a rather constant noise emission a value of 0,5 dB for σ omc can apply In other cases, e.g a large influence of the material flow into and out of the machine or material flow that varies in an unpredictable manner, it is possible that a value of dB may be more appropriate Methods to determine σ omc are described in the basic measurement standards The expanded measurement uncertainty U, in decibels, shall be calculated from U = k σ tot , with k the coverage factor NOTE The expanded measurement uncertainty depends on the degree of confidence that is desired For the purpose of comparing the result with a limit value, it is appropriate to apply the coverage factor for a one-sided normal distribution In that case, the coverage factor k = 1,6 corresponds to a 95 % confidence level Further information is given in EN ISO 4871:2009 NOTE The expanded measurement uncertainty U is denoted as K in EN ISO 4871:2009 NOTE The expanded measurement uncertainty as described in this European Standard does not include the standard deviation of production which is used in EN ISO 4871:2009 for the purpose of making a noise declaration for batches of machines CC.7 Information to be recorded and reported CC.7.1 Information to be recorded The information to be recorded covers all of the technical requirements of this noise test code Any deviations from this noise test code or from the basic standards upon which it is based are to be recorded together with the technical justification for such deviations CC.7.2 Information to be reported The information to be included in the test report is at least that which is required to prepare a noise declaration or to verify the declared values Thus as a minimum the following information shall be included: − reference to this noise test code and to the basic standards used; − description of the machine; − description of the mounting and operating conditions; − the noise emission values obtained BS EN 50636-2-100:2014 - 39 - EN 50636-2-100:2014 It shall be confirmed that all requirements of the noise test code have been fulfilled, or, if this is not the case, any unfulfilled requirements shall be identified Deviations from the requirements shall be stated and technical justification for the deviations shall be given CC.8 Declaration and verification of noise emission values The declaration of the A-weighted emission sound pressure level shall be made as a dual number noise emission declaration according to EN ISO 4871:2009 It shall declare the noise emission value L pA and separately the respective uncertainty K pA The declaration of the A-weighted sound power level L W A shall be made as a single number noise emission declaration according to EN ISO 4871:2009, thus declaring the sum of LW A and the respective uncertainty K W A The noise emission values shall be rounded to the highest decibel The noise declaration shall state that the noise emission values have been obtained according to this noise test code and to the basic standards EN ISO 11201:2010 grade and EN ISO 3744:2010 If this statement is not true, the noise emission declaration shall indicate clearly what the deviations are from this standard and/or from the basic standards If undertaken, verification shall be done according to EN ISO 4871:2009 by using the same mounting, installation and operating conditions as those used for the initial determination of the noise emission values BS EN 50636-2-100:2014 EN 50636-2-100:2014 - 40 - Annex DD (informative) Example of a material and construction fulfilling the requirements for an artificial surface DD.1 Material Mineral fibre, 20 mm thick, having an airflow resistance of 11 kN s/m and a density of 25 kg/m DD.2 Construction As is shown in Figure DD.1, the artificial flooring of the measurement site is sub-divided into nine joint planes, each of approximately 1,20 m × 1,20 m The backing layer (a) of the construction as shown in Figure DD.1 consists of chipboard, 19 mm thick, coated with a plastics material on both sides Such boards are used, for example, for the construction of kitchen furniture The cut edges of the chipboards should be protected against moisture by applying a coat of plastic paint The outsides of the flooring are bordered by a two-legged aluminium section (d), its leg height being 20 mm Sections of this profile material are also screwed to the edges of the joint planes where they serve as spacers and attachment points On the middle joint plane on which the machine is placed during measurement as well as any other place on which the operator can get to stand on, aluminium T-sections (c) with a leg length of 20 mm are mounted as spacers These sections also provide exact markings which facilitate the alignment of the machine in the middle of the measurement site The prepared boards are then covered with the insulating felt material (b) cut to size The felt flooring of the joint planes which are neither stood on nor driven over (type A surface in Figure DD.1) are covered with a simple wire mesh fastened to the edge strips and to the attachment points; for this purpose, the sections should be provided with holes Thus, the material is adequately attached, but it remains possible to replace the felt material should it become soiled As a wire mesh, a so-called aviary wire (e) with a mesh width of 10 mm and a wire diameter of 0,8 mm has proved to be suitable This wire appears to protect the surface adequately without affecting the acoustic conditions Protection by simple wire mesh is not, however, sufficient in the area subjected to traffic (type B surface in Figure DD.1) For these surfaces, the use of wire grating of corrugated steel wire (f) with a diameter of 3,1 mm and a mesh width of 30 mm has proved to be suitable The construction of the measurement site as described above offers two advantages: it can be prepared without much time and effort, and all the materials are easily obtainable The fact that the microphone positions are not situated directly above the flooring of the measurement site allows the microphones to be easily mounted on stands, assuming that the ground is even and hard as, for example, an asphalt or concrete site When arranging the microphones, account has to be taken of the fact that the height of the microphones has to be determined in relation to the surface of the flooring of the measurement site Therefore, it shall be 40 mm higher when measuring from the ground under the microphone BS EN 50636-2-100:2014 -
