EN 12549 Acoustics, Noise Test Code for Fastener Driving Tools, Engineering Method

EUROLAB laboratory provides testing and compliance services within the scope of EN 12549 standard. This standard applies to fastener driving tools. The noise (noise emission) generated by fastener driving tools, which directly affects the surrounding environment, must be calculated in a uniform procedure that allows the final results to be compared.

This standard contains provisions for conducting airborne noise measurement in the vicinity of fastener driving tools and measuring emission sound pressure levels at the workstation, under established operating conditions.

The determination of the noise emission levels of fastener driving tools according to this standard is valid for all drive systems according to EN 792-13.

The results can be used to compare the noise emissions of different fastener drive vehicles. Special conditions in the workplace (eg the shape and basis of the workpiece, the amount and frequency of driving operations) can significantly affect the noise emission.

The EC Machinery Directive provides for the specification of noise emission values ​​for machinery in a defined process. The manufacturer of fastener driving tools should specify the operating conditions during the noise measurement and what methods were used for the measurement.
