Sound Level Information for Machines in European Union Countries and in Countries that Adopt the "EU Directives"
The operator sound pressure level is 98 dB(A) when "ISO 6394:1998" is used to measure the value for an open operator station.The exterior sound power level is 117 dB(A) when the value is measured according to the test procedures and the conditions that are specified in "ISO 6393:1998".The declared sound levels listed above include both measurement uncertainty and uncertainty due to production variation.Sound Level Information for Machines in Eurasian Economic Union Countries
The declared dynamic operator sound pressure level is 98 dB(A) when "EN 16228-2:2014, Annex A" is used to measure the value for the enclosed cab position with the following exceptions: this measurement was taken with the Air Conditioner and Heater turned off and the Dust Collector turned off. The test was conducted with the cab doors and the cab windows closed. The cab was properly installed and maintained.The declared exterior sound power level LWA is 117 dB(A) when the value is measured according to the dynamic test procedures and the conditions that are specified in "EN 16228-2:2014, Annex A". The measurement was conducted to measure the value for the enclosed cab position with the following exceptions: this measurement was taken with the Air Conditioner and Heater turned off and the Dust Collector turned off. The test was conducted with the cab doors and the cab windows closed. The cab was properly installed and maintained.The declared sound levels listed above include both measurement uncertainty and uncertainty due to production variation."The European Union Physical Agents (Vibration) Directive 2002/44/EC"
Vibration Data for Pipelayers
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 pipelayers.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 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 to obtain the estimated vibration level. For aggressive operations and severe terrain, add the Scenario Factors to the average vibration level to obtain the estimated vibration level.Note: All vibration levels are in meter per second squared.
