SAMURAI Option
Overview
Field of Application:
In recent years, many new EU guidelines regarding noise emission from machinery have been enacted, e.g. the guidelines 2006/42/EG for machines in general as well as 2000/14/EG for construction machinery and other machines operated outdoors. A sound power declaration is required in order to obtain a CE mark for machines falling within the scope of these guidelines.
The determination of the sound power by means of the sound pressure method according to ISO 3744-46 is the purpose of the SAMURAI option SOUND POWER.
Description:
This option enables the sound power measurement according to ISO 3744-46 with the aid of a 3D diagram which shows the positions of the microphones in relation to the sound source. Depending on the number of available measurement channels, the measurements can be performed simultaneously or sequentially. The software can access several measurement devices in order to increase the number of available measurement channels. Either hemispherical or cuboid microphone deployment geometry may be selected.
The sound power declaration is made in third-octave or octave bands. A clearly laid-out graphical program interface guides the user through the whole measurement procedure.
