Introduction
The noise emitted by a pump unit can be radiated by the casing of the pump, the driving system
(e.g. motor, gear box, coupling), the piping system, and all the connected structures.
On site, the perceived noise can be significantly increased by reverberation effects or by the radiation
of extraneous sources.
Depending on the type of pump it can be useful to know the following:
a) the noise of the pumping system (including piping);
b) the noise of the pump unit, including the driver and the transmission elements but excluding the
noise of the piping system;
c) the noise emitted by the pump alone, excluding the noise from the driver, transmission elements,
and the piping;
d) the noise emitted by each of those elements in respect to a given requirement or in view of an
efficient sound proofing of the installation.
This document describes methods for the determination of the noise emitted by a pump unit [case b)]
or a pump alone [case c)]. Noise emission is expressed in terms of the sound power level of the machine
and the emission sound pressure level at the relevant work station (see 6.2).
This document is intended to enable the manufacturer to
— show the effectiveness of noise reduction, and
— declare the noise emission levels.
This document is a type-C standard as stated in ISO 12100.
This document is of relevance, in particular, for the following stakeholder groups representing the
market players with regard to machinery safety:
— machine manufacturers (small, medium and large enterprises);
— health and safety bodies (regulators, accident prevention organizations, market surveillance, etc.).
Others can be affected by the level of machinery safety achieved with the means of the document by the
above-mentioned stakeholder groups:
— machine users/employers (small, medium and large enterprises);
— machine users/employees (e.g. trade unions, organizations for people with special needs);
— service providers, e.g. for maintenance (small, medium and large enterprises);
— consumers (in case of machinery intended for use by consumers).
The above-mentioned stakeholder groups have been given the possibility to participate at the drafting
process of this document. The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous
situations or hazardous events are covered are indicated in the Scope of this document.
When requirements of this type-C standard are different from those which are stated in type-A or
type-B standards, the requirements of this type-C standard take precedence over the requirements of
the other standards for machines that have been designed and built according to the requirements of
this type-C standard.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which noise is covered are indicated in the scope of this
document.

1 Scope
This document specifies all the information necessary to carry out efficiently and under standardized
conditions the determination, declaration, and verification of the airborne noise emission of liquid
pumps or pump units (see 4.1). It specifies the noise measurement methods and the operating and
mounting conditions that shall be used for the test.
Noise emission characteristics include emission sound pressure levels at specified positions and the
sound power level. The determination of these quantities is necessary for
— declaring the noise emission values, and
— purpose of noise control at source at the design stage.
The determination of these quantities is also necessary for comparing the noise emitted by liquid
pumps on the market.
The use of this document ensures the reproducibility of the determination of the airborne noise-
emission characteristics within specified limits determined by the grade of accuracy of the basic
airborne noise measurement method used. Noise measurement methods according to this document
are engineering methods (grade 2) and survey methods (grade 3).
This document does not deal with the characterization of the structure-borne sound and liquid-borne
noise generated by liquid pumps.

including transmission elements (e.g. coupling, gear), baseplates, and any auxiliary equipment supplied
with the pump
4 Pump family and pump configuration
4.1 Pumps covered by this document comprise of liquid pumps of the rotodynamic and positive
displacement, rotary, and reciprocating types.
4.2 This document provides two possibilities of measurement, either pump alone (see Table 1) or
pump units (see Table 2). In these two cases, the pumps shall be installed
— on site (see 8.2.2), or
— on shop test stand (see 8.2.3), or
— in a specific facility intended for acoustic measurement (see 8.2.4).
4.3 Safety guards, e.g. coupling guards, insulation hoods, etc., if any, shall be installed during noise-
emission determination.
5 Sound power level determination
5.1 General
One of the following grade 2 of accuracy methods for determining the sound power level shall be used:
— ISO 3743-1 or ISO 3743-2;
2 © ISO 2019 – All rights reserved
---------------------- Page: 14 ----------------------
SIST EN ISO 20361:2019
ISO 20361:2019(E)
NOTE 1 ISO 3743-1 is based upon a hard-walled room and low background noise. This document gives
specifications to sound pressure level measurement in octave bands in order to calculate the sound
power level.
NOTE 2 ISO 3743-2 is based upon special reverberation test room. This document gives specifications to
sound pressure measurement in octave bands or overall A-weighted sound pressure level measurement in
order to calculate the sound power level.
— ISO 3744;
NOTE 3 ISO 3744 is based upon a non-reverberant environment and low background noise. This document
specifies a method to calculate the sound power level from the measured A-weighted sound pressure levels,
or sound pressure levels in octave or third octave bands.
— ISO 9614-1 or ISO 9614-2.
If it has been shown that the applicability requirements of these grade 2 standards cannot be attained,
e.g. too much background noise, then one of the following grade 3 methods shall be used:
— ISO 3746;
NOTE 4 ISO 3746 is less demanding, it only gives specifications to the measurement of A-weighted sound
pressure levels and provides A-weighted sound power levels with grade 3 of accuracy.
— ISO 9614-1 or ISO 9614-2;
NOTE 5 ISO 9614 (all parts) can be used in all environments, including reverberation and extraneous
noise sources to a large extent. This document gives specifications to sound intensity and sound pressure
measurement. Depending on the level of the reverberation and extraneous noise, it provides the sound
power level either as A-weighted overall level or in octave or third-octave band. For grade 3 measurements,
only the overall A-weighted sound power level is available.
NOTE 6 ISO 9614-1 requires measurements of sound intensity and simultaneously sound pressure level
(at discrete points). In this case, the number of points is generally higher than the number of points used for
the standards based on sound pressure measurements.
NOTE 7 ISO 9614-2 requires measurement of sound intensity and simultaneously sound pressure level by
scanning. This can be made on partial or global surface depending on the configuration of the machine. The
method generally reduces the measurement time.
— ISO/TS 7849-1 or ISO/TS 7849-2.
NOTE 8 ISO/TS 7849 (both parts) are Technical Specifications that can be used only when the
prescriptions of the other methods are not fulfilled. These methods are based upon measurement of
vibration velocity of the relevant parts of the pump or pump unit. ISO/TS 7849-1 provides an estimation
(upper limit) of the A-weighted sound power level and ISO/TS 7849-2 provides the A-weighted sound power
level or sound power level in octave or third octave bands.
For selection of the basic International Standard for determination of the sound power level of a pump,
Table 1 for pumps (pump alone) and Table 2 for pump units shall be used.
The reflecting plane shall be either a hard plane or a surface of water.
The International Standard, indicated in bold letters in Tables 1 and 2, describes the preferred method
and shall be used where practical. If it is not practical, one of the other noted basic International
Standards shall be used.

Introduction
The noise emitted by a pump unit can be radiated by the casing of the pump, the driving system (e.g.
motor, gear box, coupling), the piping system, and all the connected structures.
On site, the perceived noise can be significantly increased by reverberation effects or by the radiation
of extraneous sources.
Depending on the type of pump it can be useful to know the following:
a) the noise of the pumping system (including piping);
b) the noise of the pump unit, including the driver and the transmission elements but excluding the
noise of the piping system;
c) the noise emitted by the pump alone, excluding the noise from the driver, transmission elements,
and the piping;
d) the noise emitted by each of those elements in respect to a given requirement or in view of an
efficient sound proofing of the installation.
This International Standard describes methods for the determination of the noise emitted by a pump
unit [case b)] or a pump alone [case c)]. Noise emission is expressed in terms of the sound power level of
the machine and the emission sound pressure level at the relevant work station (see 6.2).
This International Standard is intended to enable the manufacturer to
— show the effectiveness of noise reduction, and
— declare the noise emission levels.
This International Standard is a type C standard as stated in ISO 12100.
When provisions of this type C standard are different from those which are stated in A or B standards,
the provisions of this type C standard take precedence.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which noise is covered are indicated in the scope of this
International Standard.

DRAFT INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO/DIS 20361:2018(E)
Liquid pumps and pumps units — Noise test code —
Grades 2 and 3 of accuracy
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies all the information necessary to carry out efficiently and under
standardized conditions the determination, declaration, and verification of the airborne noise emission
of liquid pumps or pump units (see 4.1). It specifies the noise measurement methods and the operating
and mounting conditions that shall be used for the test.
Noise emission characteristics include emission sound pressure levels at specified positions and the
sound power level. The determination of these quantities is necessary for
— declaring the noise emission values, and
— purpose of noise control at source at the design stage.
The determination of these quantities is also necessary for comparing the noise emitted by liquid
pumps on the market.
The use of this International Standard ensures the reproducibility of the determination of the airborne
noise-emission characteristics within specified limits determined by the grade of accuracy of the basic
airborne noise measurement method used. Noise measurement methods according to this International
Standard are engineering methods (grade 2) and survey methods (grade 3).
This International Standard does not deal with the characterization of the structure-borne sound and
liquid-borne noise generated by liquid pumps.
NOTE This International Standard is specified in EN 809+A1 for noise measurements of the Pump (or
Pump Unit).

The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are
indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated
references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.
3.1
pump
equipment that is defined as being terminated by its inlet and outlet branches as well as in general its
shaft ends
3.2
pump unit
equipment that is comprised of the pump (3.1) and its driver (e.g. electric motor, steam turbine)
including transmission elements (e.g. coupling, gear), baseplates, and any auxiliary equipment supplied
with the pump
4 Pump family and pump configuration
4.1 Pumps covered by this International Standard comprise of liquid pumps of the rotodynamic and
positive displacement, rotary, and reciprocating types.
4.2 This International Standard provides two possibilities of measurement, either pump alone (see
Table 1) or pump units (see Table 2). In these two cases, the pumps shall be installed
— on site (see 7.2.2), or
— on shop test stand (see 7.2.3), or
— in a specific facility intended for acoustic measurement (see 7.2.4).
4.3 Safety guards, e.g. coupling guards, insulation hoods etc., if any, shall be installed during noise-
emission determination.
5 Sound power level determination
5.1 General
One of the following grade 2 of accuracy methods for determining the sound power level shall be used:
— ISO 3743-1 or ISO 3743-2;
2 © ISO 2018 – All rights reserved
---------------------- Page: 10 ----------------------
oSIST prEN ISO 20361:2019
ISO/DIS 20361:2018(E)
NOTE 1 ISO 3743-1 is based upon a hard-walled room and low background noise. This International
Standard gives specifications to sound pressure level measurement in octave bands, in order to calculate the
sound power level.
NOTE 2 ISO 3743-2 is based upon special reverberation test room. This International Standard gives
specifications to A-weighted sound pressure level measurement in order to calculate the sound power level.
— ISO 3744;
NOTE 3 ISO 3744 is based upon a non-reverberant environment and low background noise. This
International Standard specifies a method to calculate the sound power level from the measured A-weighted
sound pressure levels, or sound pressure levels in octave or third octave bands.
— ISO 9614-1 or ISO 9614-2.
If it has been shown that the applicability requirements of these grade 2 standards cannot be
attained, e.g. too much background noise, then one of the following grade 3 methods shall be used:
— ISO 3746;
NOTE 4 ISO 3746 is less demanding, it only gives specifications to the measurement of A-weighted sound
pressure levels and provides A-weighted sound power levels with grade 3 of accuracy.
— ISO 9614-1 or ISO 9614-2;
NOTE 5 ISO 9614 (all parts) can be used in all environments, including reverberation and extraneous
noise sources to a large extent. This International Standard gives specifications to sound intensity and
sound pressure measurement. Depending on the level of the reverberation and extraneous noise, it provides
the sound power level either as A-weighted overall level or in octave or third-octave band. For grade 3
measurements, only the overall A-weighted sound power level is available.
NOTE 6 ISO 9614-1 requires measurements of sound intensity and simultaneously sound pressure level
(at discrete points). In this case, the number of points is generally higher than the number of points used for
the standards based on sound pressure measurements.
NOTE 7 ISO 9614-2 requires measurement of sound intensity and simultaneously sound pressure level by
scanning. This can be made on partial or global surface depending on the configuration of the machine. The
method generally reduces the measurement time.
— ISO/TS 7849-1 or ISO/TS 7849-2.
NOTE 8 ISO/TS 7849 (both parts) are Technical Specifications that can be used only when the
prescriptions of the other methods are not fulfilled. These methods are based upon measurement of
vibration velocity of the relevant parts of the pump or pump unit. ISO/TS 7849-1 provides an estimation
(upper limit) of the A-weighted sound power level and ISO/TS 7849-2 provides the A-weighted sound power
level or sound power level in octave or third octave bands.
For selection of the basic International Standard for determination of the sound power level of a pump,
Table 1 for pumps (pump alone) and Table 2 for pump units shall be used.
The reflecting plane shall be either a hard plane or a surface of water.
The International Standard, indicated in bold letters in Tables 1 and 2, describes the preferred method
and shall be used where practical. If it is not practical, one of the other noted basic International
Standards shall be used.

5.2 Specific considerations for reference box, measurement surface, position of
microphones, and intensity probe
5.2.1 General
When ISO 3744, ISO 3746, or ISO 9614 is used, 5.2.2 to 5.2.4 apply.
5.2.2 Reference box
The reference box is a hypothetical surface, the smallest simple volume (parallelepiped, box, cylinder,
etc.) containing the pump unit or pump and the flanges of the machine but excluding the pipings for the
pump unit and pipings, transmission elements, and driver for pumps (pump alone) and small individual
components of the source that do not contribute to the sound radiation. For ISO 3744 and ISO 3746, the

reference box is a parallelepiped. The box encloses the source and terminates on the reflecting plane
(hard ground or water). For examples of reference boxes see Figures 1 and 2.

5.2.3 Measurement surface and microphone positions
The measurement surface is a surface enveloping the reference box at a given distance to the box.
The distance between the measurement surface and the reference box is called the measurement
distance. It depends on the basic method used.
— For ISO 3744 and ISO 3746, both of which are based on sound pressure level measurements, the
distance shall be chosen equal to 1 m.
Where the background noise requirements of these International Standards are not met, a distance
smaller than 1 m but larger than 0,25 m can be chosen.
— For ISO 9614-1 and ISO 9614-2, both of which are based on a sound intensity measurement, the
distance shall be
— d ≥ 0,5 m for ISO 9614-1;
1
— 0,2 m ≤ d ≤ 0,5 m for ISO 9614-2.
