Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO
member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical
committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has
the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in
liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.
Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard ISO 15667 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 43, Acoustics, Subcommittee
SC 1, Noise.
Annexes A and B of this International Standard are for information only.

ISO 15667:2000(E)
Introduction
Acoustic enclosures and cabins provide a reduction of airborne sound on the propagation path from the machine
(or a set of machines) to nearby work stations or to the environment. This International Standard describes criteria
which determine the acoustic performance of enclosures and cabins with consideration of operational aspects.
INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 15667:2000(E)
Acoustics — Guidelines for noise control by enclosures and
cabins
1 Scope
This International Standard deals with the performance of enclosures and cabins designed for noise control. It
outlines the acoustical and operational requirements which are to be agreed upon between the supplier or
manufacturer and the user of such enclosures and cabins. This International Standard is applicable to two types of
acoustic enclosures and cabins, as follows.
a) Cabins for noise protection of operators: free-standing cabins and cabins attached to machines (e.g. vehicles,
cranes).
b) Free-standing enclosures covering or housing machines: enclosures with a fraction of acoustically untreated
open area of less than 10 % of the total surface are the main subject of this International Standard.
In this International Standard, emphasis is put on lightweight constructions. However, thick, massive structures as,
for example, brick walls, are not excluded.
Enclosures and cabins with more than 10 % open and untreated area belong to the category of partial enclosures.
They are not the subject of this International Standard.
A third type of enclosure, integrated enclosures which form a part of the machine and are firmly attached to it, is not
the subject of this International Standard.
2 Normative references
The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of
this International Standard. For dated references, subsequent amendments to, or revisions of, any of these
publications do not apply. However, parties to agreements based on this International Standard are encouraged to
investigate the possibility of applying the most recent edit
