Safety of machinery - Noise test code for foundry machines and equipment

This noise test code specifies all the information necessary to carry out efficiently and under standardized conditions the determination, declaration and verification of the noise emission values of several groups of foundry machinery. It specifies noise measurement methods that are available and operating and mounting conditions that shall be used for the test.
Noise emission values include emission sound pressure levels at work stations and the sound power level. The determination of these quantities is necessary for:
-   manufacturers to declare the noise emitted;
-   comparing the noise emitted by machines in the group concerned;
-   purposes of noise control at the source at the design stage.
The use of this standard ensures the reproducibility of the determination of the !noise emission values" within specified limits determined by the grade of accuracy of the basic noise measurement method used. Noise measurement methods allowed by this standard are engineering methods (grade 2) and survey methods (grade 3).
This standard has a main body giving general requirements common to the foundry machines family. Six normative Annexes give requirements specific to the groups of foundry machinery listed below:
-   core making machines (EN 710);
-   moulding machines (EN 710);
-   knock-out grids and knock-out trays (EN 710);
-   dry abrasive blasting equipment (not restricted to foundry application) (EN 1248);
-   air blasting equipment (EN 1248);
-   diecasting machines (EN 869);
and six informative Annexes giving guidance for the definition of specific operating conditions.
The main body of this standard also gives guidance for the measurement of the noise emission of foundry machines not dealt with in the Annexes.
This standard does not cover the computation of personnel daily noise exposure.

EN 1265:1999+A1:2008 (E) 5 Introduction This noise test code provides manufacturers and third parties with the means to carry out noise emission measurements, determine values for noise declaration purposes and provide the means for their verification. This document follows the rules of EN ISO 12001. The complexity, variety and nature of foundry equipment makes the measurement of sound power level very complicated. This explains the approach taken in the body of the standard for the determination of the sound power level. 1 Scope !This" noise test code specifies all the information necessary to carry out efficiently and under standardized conditions the determination, declaration and verification of the !noise emission values" of several groups of foundry machinery. It specifies noise measurement methods that are available and operating and mounting conditions that shall be used for the test. !Noise emission values" include emission sound pressure levels at work stations and the sound power level. The determination of these quantities is necessary for:  manufacturers to declare the noise emitted;  comparing the noise emitted by machines in the group concerned;  purposes of noise control at the source at the design stage. The use of this standard ensures the reproducibility of the determination of the !noise emission values" within specified limits determined by the grade of accuracy of the basic noise measurement method used. Noise measurement methods allowed by this standard are engineering methods (grade 2) and survey methods (grade 3).

Grade 2 (engineering) shall be used whenever possible. 6.2 Selection of relevant work stations The work stations, where A-weighted emission sound pressure levels and C-weighted peak emission sound pressure levels are to be determined, are specified in the relevant Annexes for particular machine groups. For machines not covered in the Annexes the position of the work station shall be recorded and reported in quantitative terms. If fixed work stations other than those specified in the Annexes exist, the manufacturer shall measure and report A-weighted emission sound pressure levels in addition at these work stations. When the work station is undefined, sound pressure levels shall be measured at a distance of 1 m from the surface of the machinery and a height of 1,6 m above the floor or access platform. The position and value of the maximum sound pressure level shall be indicated. 6.3 Measurement uncertainty For measurement uncertainties see clause 9. 6.4 Measurement procedure Details of the measurement procedure for specific groups of foundry machinery are given in the relevant Annexes A to F. 7 Installation and mounting conditions The installation and mounting conditions shall be those recommended by the manufacturer. The installation and mounting conditions shall be the same for the determination of both sound power level and emission sound pressure level at specified positions and for declaration purposes. The machine shall be placed if possible on a reflecting floor as far as possible from any other reflecting surface or object. NOTE Care should be taken to ensure that any electrical conduits, piping or air ducts connected to the machinery do not radiate significant amounts of sound into the test environment, if they are not part of the machine. The determination of sound power levels with the machine mounted on a reflecting floor and close to a wall is not recommended but permitted if there is no other way to carry out the measurement and if the wall is acoustically reflective. In this case, requirements given in EN ISO 3744 regarding sound power determination in the presence of two reflective planes shall be applied. SIST EN 1265:2000+A1:2009



EN 1265:1999+A1:2008 (E) 10 8 Operating conditions The measuring object is the machine in a normal nominal operating condition with the product to be produced, processed or machined. Auxiliary devices which are integrated in the machine and are essential for its operation such as hydraulic or vacuum devices are considered to be part of the machine. The operating condition is selected in such a way that in the course of the measurement all characteristic noises that are emitted during the operation of the machine and that can be assigned to it are detected. In case of different working processes that together constitute a characteristic working cycle, it is this cycle that is defined as the operating condition. Operating conditions shall be the same for the determination of both sound power level and emission sound pressure level at work stations (see also Annexes A to F). Noise reduction !devices", which are part of the machine, shall be in place during the measurement. 9 Measurement uncertainties The standard deviation of reproducibility is the one specified in the basic noise emission standard used. It is equal to 1,5 dB for A-weighted sound power levels and 2,5 dB for the A-weighted emission sound pressure levels determined with a method of grade 2 of accuracy (engineering method). 10 Information to be recorded The information to be recorded includes all the information required by the relevant basic noise emission standards used for the sound source under test: acoustic environment, instrumentation, acoustical data. 11 Information to be reported The information to be reported shall include all the information required by the relevant noise emission standards used for the sound source under test e. g.  machine characteristics;  reference to this noise test code and to the basic noise emission standards that have been used;  measured noise emission values;  location of the work stations and other specified positions;  description of mounting and operating conditions;  if appropriate, it shall be confirmed that all specifications given in this noise test code and in the basic noise emission standards used have been strictly fulfilled. Examples of machine data sheets are given in the Annexes G to L for the machines referred to in clause 1. 12 Declaration and verification of noise emission values !The declaration shall be made as dual-number noise emission values (measured value and associated uncertainty given separately). The noise declaration shall be made in such a way that the values can be verified according to 6.2 of EN ISO 4871:1996." SIST EN 1265:2000+A1:2009



EN 1265:1999+A1:2008 (E) 11 The A-weighted emission sound pressure level and the A-weighted sound power level and - if relevant - the C-weighted peak emission sound pressure levels LpCpeak at the work stations shall be declared. The noise declaration shall explicitly mention the fact that the noise emission values have been obtained according to this noise test code and indicate which basic standards have been used. If this statement is not true, the noise declaration shall indicate clearly what the deviations are from this noise test code and/or from the basic standards. If undertaken, a verification shall be conducted by using the same mounting, installation and operating conditions as those used for the initial determination of noise emission values. Additional noise emission quantities such as sound power levels in octave bands etc. may also be given in the noise declaration. In this case, care shall be taken to avoid confusion between these additional noise emission data and the declared dual-number noise emission values. !Table 1" shows an example of a dual-number noise declaration. The given values are only for illustration. !deleted text" !Table 1 — Example of declared dual-number noise values Identifying information, e.g. machine type, model number, date of readings

Coremaking machines The clause numbering in this normative Annex corresponds to that in the main body. A.4 Description of machinery group This Annex applies to manually or automatically controlled coremaking machines as defined in EN 710. A hydraulic or vacuum device being integrated in the coremaking machine is considered to be part of it. The sand feeding device is an integral part of the machine. A.5 Sound power level determination A.5.3 Measurement procedure The A-weighted sound power level is determined over the complete working cycle outlined in clause 8. The total cycle time TC contains a time TH for hardening whose duration depends on sand and core type and during which practically no noise is produced. For this reason the A-weighted sound power level which was determined for the cycle, LWAc, is corrected for a normalised hardening time of 10 s for cold setting and 120 s for hot setting using the following formulas for cold setting: LWAc,10 = LWAc + 10 lg  10s+T-TT H CC dB for hot setting: LWAc,120 = LWAc + 10 lg  120s+T-TT

EN 1265:1999+A1:2008 (E) 13 A.6 Emission sound pressure level determination A.6.2 Selection of relevant work stations For manually and semi-automatically controlled core making machines a fixed work station is defined at a distance of 0,5 m in front of the machine and 0,8 m above the core handling platform. For automatically controlled machines there is usually not a specified fixed work station. The operator rather moves at a distance of approx. 1 m on the front side of the machine. In this case the work stations are defined as three positions at 1 m in front of the machine, one being directly in front of the shooting/blowing unit, the other two being at 1 m on each side. All measurements shall be made at 0,8 m above the core handling platform. A.6.4 Measurement procedure The A-weighted emission sound pressure level shall be determined over the complete working cycle outlined in clause A.8. The total cycle time TC contains a time TH for hardening whose duration depends on sand and core type and during which practically no noise is produced. For this reason the A-weighted sound pressure level which was determined for the cycle is corrected for a normalised hardening time of 10 s for cold setting and 120 s for hot setting using following formulas for cold setting: LpAc,10 = LpAc + 10 lg  10s+T-TT
