This part of ISO 9902 gives requirements for carrying out, efficiently and under standardized conditions, the determination, declaration and verification of basic noise emission quantities common to the types of textile machinery dealt with in ISO 9902-2 to ISO 9902-7. It specifies noise measurement methods, as well as the mounting and operating conditions, to be used for this noise test code. This part of ISO 9902 is applicable to all machinery, plant and equipment given according to ISO 11111, including equipment enabling the automated operation of machines and processes for single machines or complex installations, but excluding equipment for transportation between the machine interfaces. NOTE 1 The measurement of the peak, C-weighted, instantaneous sound pressure value at workstations is not dealt with in this part of ISO 9902, since peak sound pressures sufficient to require such measurement are not to be expected from textile machines. NOTE 2 For each textile machine, two parts of ISO 9902 will normally need to be used: this part and the relevant, specific part of ISO 9902.
