PART BNOISE TEST CODES FOR SPECIFIC EQUIPMENT

38.MOBILE CRANES

Operating conditions during test

Period(s) of observation/determination of resulting sound power level if more than one operating condition is used

The resulting sound power level is calculated by:

  1. i)

    if telescoping is applicable

    LWA=10 log 0,4×100,1LWAa+0,25×100,1LWAb+0,25×100,1LWAc+0,1×100,1LWAdmath
  2. ii)

    if telescoping is not applicable

    LWA=10 log 0,4×100,1LWAa+0,3×100,1LWAb+0,3×100,1LWAcmath

where

LWAa is the sound power level for the hoisting cycle

LWAb is the sound power level for the slewing cycle

LWAc is the sound power level for the derricking cycle

LWAd is the sound power level for the telescoping cycle (if applicable)
