Statistical level is the certain boundary level
surpassed by the temporary noise level
values in not more than n% of the observation
period
Example: Let us assume that L35 is
equal to 76.8 dB. It means that during
the measurements the noise level
76.8 dB was exceeded in not more than
35% of the observation period.
D.3 DEFINITIONS AND FORMULAS OF THE ADDITIONAL DOSIMETER FUNCTION RESULTS

The SEL8 result is the SEL result
corresponding to the integration time equal to
8 hours. The SEL8 result is calculated on the

Individual Sound Exposure Level to the noise
is equal to the standing sound level in a
measurement period. The PSEL result is
calculated on the base of the LEQ.
The E result (Exposition) represents the
amount of the acoustical energy received by
the worker.
The E_8h result (Exposition in 8 hours)
represents the amount of the acoustical
energy received
by the worker during 8 hours. The E_8h result
is expressed in the linear units [Pa
2
h].
