7 Noise and Vibration
7.1 Noise Levels and Vibration Values
!
NOTE: Indicated values in the manual are valid only for the intended use of the ma-
chine.
Noise Emission Values/Vibration Values Drilling, Free Field
A-weighted sound power, L
WAd
(reference 1 pW) in
decibels (declaration for single values) Uncer-
tainty, KpA 6 decibels
129
A-weighted emission sound pressure level L
pA
(reference 20 μPa), measured in decibels at the
workstation (dual-number declaration)
105 ± 6
The values were determined in accordance with the sound test code in EN 16228-1 and
EN 16228-2 based on the basic standards ISO 3747, ISO 11201 and ISO 11203 (Q=20
close to machine, free field, remote control, service) and ISO 2631-1.
Dual Number: When combined, the declared noise emission values are the sum of mea-
sured values and uncertainty. They represent an upper limit of the range, in which mea-
sured values are likely to be included.
Single Values: The sum of a measured value and of the associated uncertainty represents
an upper limit of the range, in which measured values are likely to be included.
The sound power is equivalent to the guaranteed sound power level referred to in 2000/14/
EC for machines intended only for surface applications.
The noise emission values have been declared using EN 4871.
7.2 Declared Values
n The declared values for noise and vibration were obtained by testing in accordance
with the stated standards and are comparable with the declared values of other ma-
chines tested in accordance with the same standards.
n The declared values are not adequate for use in risk assessments, as values mea-
sured in individual work places may be higher.
n The actual noise levels and vibration values to which an individual is exposed to are
unique and dependent on the work practices, reflections from walls, road conditions,
duration of exposure time and the physical health of the individual.
n Incorrect use of the machine can cause health problems due to whole-body vibration
and noise. A guide on the management of vibration is available in ISO/TR 25398 and
on hearing protectors in EN 458.
n Atlas Copco recommends a program of health surveillance to detect early symptoms
caused by exposure to noise and vibrations, so that management procedures can be
modified to prevent future impairment.
7.3 Causes of High Noise Levels
Noise levels higher than the stated values are likely to occur when:
