The noise declaration shall be accompanied by the
following statement:
"The figures quoted are emission levels and are not
necessarily safe working levels. Whilst there is a
correlation between the emission and exposure levels,
this cannot be used reliably to determine whether or not
further precautions are required. Factors that influence
the actual level of exposure of the workforce include the
characteristics of the work room and the other sources of
noise, etc., i.e. the number of machines and other
adjacent processes. Also the permissible exposure level
can vary from country to country. This information,
however, will enable the user of the machine to make a
better evaluation of the hazard and risk."
Information on noise emission shall also be provided in
the sales literature when performance data are provided.
ee) for building site saws a declaration of guaranteed
sound power level determined in accordance with the
methods given in 5.4.2.2.2 a) to d) using the single
number form of declaration in accordance with EN
ISO 4871:2009.
for example, guaranteed sound power level: L
WA
= xx dB
Additionally a declaration concerning sound pressure level
at the operator’s position, either the actual value or a
value established on the basis of measurements made on
identical machinery, measured in accordance with the
methods given in 5.4.2.2.2). The declaration shall be
accompanied by a statement of the measuring method
used and the operating conditions applied during the test
and values for associated uncertainty K using the dual-
number form of declaration in accordance with EN ISO
4871:2009.
