3.3.2 Method of Measurement - For all machines, measurements
shall be
made on the prescribed
paths shown in Fig. 2, 3 or 4. For machines
linear dimension
1 ( excluding
shaft ) equal to or
having a maximum
exceeding
0.25 m these rectilinear paths are, at their nearest points, 1 m
from the distance of the mat hine.
For cases where 1 is less than 0.25 nr,
these rectilinear
paths are at their nearest points at a distance from the
surface of the machine between 41 and 1 m but not less than 0.25 m. For
all horizontal
machines
the prescribed
path parallel
to the reflecting
ground plane should be at shaft height or 0.25 m, whichever is greater
( see Fig. 2 ). For vertical machines, the prescribed
path parallel
to the
reflecting ground plane shall be at half the height of the machine but not
less than a height of 0.25 m ( see Fig. 4 ). The prescribed path in the vertical plane may be in, or parallel to, the plane of the shaft.
The positions of the measurement
3.3.3 Location of Measurement Points points (the number of which depends upon the size ofthe machine and the
symmetry of the acoustic

The 1 000 Hz band contains a pure tone and its level is appreciably
greater
than the adjacent
bands. The mean (A) weighted sound power
level of the adjacent
500 Hz and 2 000 Hz bands is 98.5 dB (using
Appendix E), so the difference between this level and the 1 000 Hz band
level is 5.5 dB.

RECOMMENDATIONS
FOR METHODS
OF ASSESSING
OF MACHINES
ON LOAD
NOISE
B-l. The standard conditions for noise tests are that the machine should be
on no-load and the sound be radiated
in a free-field
over a reflecting
plane.
B-2. If it is apparent that there is a significant difference
in the noise level
of the machine
between no load and rated load ( or any other load ) the
magnitude
of the difference may, by agreement between the manufacturer
and the purchaser,
be determined
approximately
from near field sound
pressure level measurements.
23
1s t 12065 - 1987
B-3; This method consists of carrying
out sound pressure level measurements at a number
of points suitably distributed
around the machine,
sufficiently
close to it so that the measurements
are not significantly
affected by nearby
reflecting surfaces or background
noise. The use of
directional
microphones
for this test nlay be desirable.
B-4. The provisions
of Test Methods
I or II as appropriate
apply in
general with the exception of the section dealing with location of measurement points.
B-5. For near field measurements,
