BLOWER GP-CAB 4849678 - Caterpillar

Sound Level Information
Hearing protection may be needed when the machine is operated with an open operator station for extended periods or in a noisy environment. Hearing protection may be needed when the machine is operated with a cab that is not properly maintained or when the doors and windows are open for extended periods or in a noisy environment.Sound Level Information for Machines in European Union Countries and in Countries that Adopt the "EU Directives"
The operator sound pressure level that is measured according to static test procedures and conditions that are specified in "EN500-2006" is 86.1 dB(A) for a machine that is equipped with a canopy. The swivel seat was in the straight ahead position.The average exterior sound pressure level is 108 dB(A). The exterior sound power level was measured according to the static test procedures and conditions that are specified in "2000/14/EC"."The European Union Physical Agents (Vibration) Directive 2002/44/EC"
Vibration Data for Asphalt Paver
Information Concerning Hand/Arm Vibration Level
When the machine is operated according to the intended use, the hand/arm vibration of this machine is below 2.5 meter per second squared.Information Concerning Whole Body Vibration Level
This section provides vibration data and a method for estimating the vibration level for asphalt pavers.Note: Vibration levels are influenced by many different parameters. Many items are listed below.
Operator training, behavior, mode and stress
Job site organization, preparation, environment, weather and material
Machine type, quality of the seat, quality of the suspension system, attachments and condition of the equipmentIt is not possible to get precise vibration levels for this machine. The expected vibration levels can be estimated with the information in Table 1 in order to calculate the daily vibration exposure. A simple evaluation of the machine application can be used.Estimate the vibration levels for the three vibration directions. For typical operating conditions, use the average vibration levels as the estimated level. With an experienced operator and smooth terrain, subtract the Scenario Factors from the average vibration level in order to obtain the estimated vibration level. For aggressive operations and severe terrain, add the Scenario Factors to the average vibration level in order to obtain the estimated vibration level.Note: All vibration levels are in meter per second squared.
