La présente Norme européenne spécifie les paramètres pouvant être utilisés pour évaluer l'émission de
polluants provenant des machines ou les performances des systèmes de maîtrise de la pollution intégrés aux
machines. Elle fournit les critères de sélection de méthodes d'essai appropriées en tenant compte de leurs
différents domaines d'application et des types de machines y compris de l'incidence des moyens utilisés pour
réduire l'exposition aux polluants. Les méthodes d'essai sont décrites dans les autres parties de la présente
Norme européenne (voir Tableau 1 et Annexe A).
