ISO 6394:1998
Acoustics - Measurement at the operators position of noise emitted by earth-moving machinery - Stationary test conditions'
This International Standard specifies a method for determining the noise emitted by earth-moving machinery, measured at the operator's position, in terms of the time-averaged A-weighted sound pressure level while the machine is stationary with the engine operating at rated speed under no-load conditions.
This International Standard is applicable to the following specific types of earth-moving machinery:
- excavators (hydraulic or rope-operated);
- crawler and wheel tractor-dozers;
- crawler and wheel loaders; and
- backhoe loaders (also known as excavator loaders).
