Test for Operator-Ear Sound Pressure Level
Amano Pioneer Eclipse measures and rates the
operator-ear sound pressure level for hand-guided floor
treatment and floor cleaning machines for industrial use.
All tests are performed in accordance with European
Machinery Directive (2006/42/EC).
lOutdoor test area consists of a flat open space free
from effects of signboards, buildings or hillsides for at
least 15 m (50 ft) from the center of the test surface.
Indoor tests are conducted in a semi-anechoic or
sound deadening room.
lThe test surface is a single sheet of floor covering
at least 1 m (3.3 ft) wider and longer than the
equipment being tested. In order to not affect the
sound reading, the observer taking readings is at
least 2 m (6.6 ft.) from the equipment being tested, or
standing directly behind the operator.
lAll machines are tested while stationary and centered
on the test surface. With the traction drive in neutral
(where applicable) the test is conducted with the
machine at maximum engine or motor speed as
specified by the manufacturer.
lThe operator is located in the normal operating
position with the microphone or meter supported
independent of the machine, 1,68 m (66 in) above
the test surface, 25 cm (10 in) to the right and left
centerline of the operators position, and 20 cm (8 in)
to the rearmost point of the handle, with the handle in
the most forward position.
lThe sound level meter is observed for a minimum of
5 seconds or until a stabilized reading is obtained.
The maximum repeatable sound level observed
during the test at each microphone position is
recorded and documented.
Test for Hand-Arm Vibration at the Grip
Surface of Hand-Guided Machinery
Amano Pioneer Eclipse measures and rates the
vibration at the machine-hand contact surface of
hand-guided machines that are provided with handles
in accordance with European Machinery Directive
