“
10.6 Safeguards against acoustic energy sources
10.6.1 General
10.6.1.1 Introduction
Safeguard requirements for protection against long-term exposure to excessive sound pressure levels from
personal music players closely coupled to the ear are specified below. Requirements for earphones and
headphones intended for use with personal music players are also covered.
A personal music player is a portable equipment intended for use by an ordinary person, that:
— is designed to allow the user to listen to audio or audiovisual content / material; and
— uses a listening device, such as headphones or earphones that can be worn in or on or around the ears;
and
— has a player that can be body worn (of a size suitable to be carried in a clothing pocket) and is intended
for the user to walk around with while in continuous use (for example, on a street, in a subway, at an
airport, etc.).
EXAMPLES Portable CD players, MP3 audio players, mobile phones with MP3 type features, PDAs or similar
equipment.
Personal music players shall comply with the requirements of either 10.6.2 or 10.6.3.
NOTE 1 Protection against acoustic energy sources from telecom applications is referenced to ITU-T P.360.
NOTE 2 It is the intention of the Committee to allow the alternative methods for now, but to only use the dose
measurement method as given in 10.6.5 in future. Therefore, manufacturers are encouraged to implement 10.6.5 as soon
as possible.
Listening devices sold separately shall comply with the requirements of 10.6.6.
These requirements are valid for music or video mode only.
The requirements do not apply to:
— professional equipment;
NOTE 3 Professional equipment is equipment sold through special sales channels. All products sold through
normal electronics stores or general public sales channels are considered not to be professional equipment.
— hearing aid equipment and other devices for assistive listening;
— the following type of analogue personal music players:
— long distance radio receiver (for example, a multiband radio receiver or world band radio receiver, an
AM radio receiver), and
— cassette player/recorder;
NOTE 4 This exemption has been allowed because this technology is falling out of use and it is expected that
within a few years it will no longer exist. This exemption will not be extended to other technologies.
— a player while connected to an external amplifier that does not allow the user to walk around while in use;
— hearing protection devices (HPD) that comply with EN 352-8
For equipment that is clearly designed or intended primarily for use by children, the limits of the relevant toy
standards may apply.
The relevant requirements are given in EN 71-1:2014+A1:2018, 4.20 and the related tests methods and
measurement distances apply.
10.6.2 Classification of devices without the capacity to estimate sound dose
10.6.2.1 General
This standard is transitioning from short-term based (30 s) requirements to long-term based (40 h)
requirements. These clauses remain in effect only for devices that do not comply with sound dose estimation
as stipulated in EN 50332-3:2017.
For classifying the acoustic output L , , measurements are based on the A-weighted equivalent sound
T
Aeq
pressure level over a 30 s period.
For music where the average sound pressure (long term L , ) measured over the duration of the song is
T
Aeq
lower than the average produced by the programme simulation noise, measurements may be done over the
duration of the complete song. In this case, T becomes the duration of the song.
NOTE Classical music, acoustic music and broadcast typically has an average sound pressure (long term L , ) which
T
Aeq
is much lower than the average programme simulation noise. Therefore, if the player is capable to analyse the content and
compare it with the programme simulation noise, the warning does not need to be given as long as the average sound
pressure of the song does not exceed the required limit.
For example, if the player is set with the programme simulation noise to 85 dB, but the average music level of
the song is only 65 dB, there is no need to give a warning or ask an acknowledgement as long as the average
sound level of the song is not above the basic limit of 85 dB.
10.6.2.2 RS1 limits (to be superseded, see 10.6.3.2)
RS1 is a class 1 acoustic energy source that does not exceed the following:
— for equipment provided as a package (player with its listening device), and with a proprietary connector
between the player and its listening device, or where the combination of player and listening device is
known by other means such as setting or automatic detection, the L , acoustic output shall be ≤ 85 dB
T
Aeq
when playing the fixed “programme simulation noise” described in EN 50332-1:2013;
— for equipment provided with a standardized connector (for example, a 3,5 mm headphone/earphone jack)
that allows connection to a listening device for general use, the unweighted r.m.s. output voltage shall
be ≤ 27 mV (analogue interface) or −25 dBFS (digital interface) when playing the fixed “programme
simulation noise” described in EN 50332-1:2013.
The RS1 limits will be updated for all devices as per 10.6.3.2.
10.6.2.3 RS2 limits (to be superseded, see 10.6.3.3)
RS2 is a class 2 acoustic energy source that does not exceed the following:
— for equipment provided as a package (player with its listening device), and with a proprietary connector
between the player and its listening device, or when the combination of player and listening device is
known by other means such as setting or automatic detection, the L , acoustic output shall
T
Aeq
be ≤ 100 dB(A) when playing the fixed “programme simulation noise” as described in EN 50332-1:2013;
— for equipment provided with a standardized connector (for example, a 3,5 phone jack) that allows
connection to a listening device for general use, the unweighted r.m.s. output voltage shall be ≤ 150 mV
(analogue interface) or −10 dBFS (digital interface) when playing the fixed “programme simulation noise”
as described in EN 50332-1:2013.
10.6.2.4 RS3 limits
RS3 is a class 3 acoustic energy source that exceeds RS2 limits.
10.6.3 Classification of devices (new)
10.6.3.1 General
Previous limits (10.6.2) created abundant false negative and false positive PMP sound level warnings. New
limits, compliant with The Commission Decision 2009/490/EC of 23 June 2009, are given below.
10.6.3.2 RS1 limits (new)
RS1 is a class 1 acoustic energy source that does not exceed the following:
— for equipment provided as a package (player with its listening device), and with a proprietary connector
between the player and its listening device, or where the combination of player and listening device is
known by other means such as setting or automatic detection, the L , acoustic output shall be ≤ 80 dB
T
Aeq
when playing the fixed “programme simulation noise” described in EN 50332-1:2013;
— for equipment provided with a standardized connector (for example, a 3,5 phone jack) that allows
connection to a listening device for general use, the unweighted r.m.s. output voltage shall be ≤ 15 mV
(analogue interface) or −30 dBFS (digital interface) when playing the fixed “programme simulation noise”
described in EN 50332-1:2013.
10.6.3.3 RS2 limits (new)
RS2 is a class 2 acoustic energy source that does not exceed the following:
— for equipment provided as a package (player with its listening device), and with a proprietary connector
between the player and its listening device, or where the combination of player and listening device is
known by other means such as setting or automatic detection, the weekly sound exposure level, as
described in EN 50332-3:2017, shall be ≤ 80 dB when playing the fixed “programme simulation noise”
described in EN 50332-1:2013;
— for equipment provided with a standardized connector (for example, a 3,5 phone jack) that allows
connection to a listening device for general use, the unweighted r.m.s. output level, integrated over one
week, as described in EN 50332-3:2017, shall be ≤ 15 mV (analogue interface) or −30 dBFS (digital
interface) when playing the fixed “programme simulation noise” described in EN 50332-1:2013.
10.6.4 Requirements for maximum sound exposure
10.6.4.1 Measurement methods
All volume controls shall be turned to maximum during tests.
Measurements shall be made in accordance with EN 50332-1:2013 or EN 50332-2:2013 as applicable.
10.6.4.2 Protection of persons
Except as given below, protection requirements for parts accessible to ordinary persons, instructed
persons and skilled persons are given in 4.3.
NOTE 1 Volume control is not considered to be a safeguard.
Between RS2 and an ordinary person, the basic safeguard may be replaced by an instructional
safeguard in accordance with Clause F.5, except that the instructional safeguard shall be placed on the
equipment, or on the packaging, or in the instruction manual. Alternatively, the instructional safeguard may
be given through the equipment display during use.
The elements of the instructional safeguard shall be as follows:
— element 1a:
the symbol , IEC 60417-6044 (2011–01)
— element 2: “High sound pressure” or equivalent text
— element 3: “Hearing damage risk” or equivalent text
— element 4: “Do not listen at high volume levels for long periods.” or equivalent text
An equipment safeguard shall prevent exposure of an ordinary person to an RS2 source without intentional
physical action from the ordinary person and shall automatically return to an output level not exceeding what
is specified for an RS1 source when the power is switched off.
The equipment shall provide a means to actively inform the user of the increased sound level when the
equipment is operated with an output level exceeding RS1 limits. Any means used shall be acknowledged by
the user before activating a mode of operation which allows for an output level exceeding RS1 limits. The
acknowledgement does not need to be repeated more than once every 20 h of cumulative listening time.
NOTE 2 Examples of means include visual or audible signals. Action from the user is always needed.
NOTE 3 The 20 h listening time is the accumulative listening time, independent of how often and how long the personal
music player has been switched off.
A skilled person shall not be unintentionally exposed to RS3.
10.6.5 Requirements for dose-based systems
10.6.5.1 General requirements
Personal music players shall give the warnings as provided below when tested according to
EN 50332-3:2017, using the limits from this clause.
The manufacturer may offer optional settings to allow the users to modify when and how they wish to receive
the notifications and warnings to promote a better user experience without defeating the safeguards. This
allows the users to be informed in a method that best meets their physical capabilities and device usage
needs. If such optional settings are offered, an administrator (for example, parental restrictions,
business/educational administrators, etc.) shall be able to lock any optional settings into a specific
configuration.
The personal music player shall be supplied with easy to understand explanation to the user of the dose
management system, the risks involved, and how to use the system safely. The user shall be made aware
that other sources may significantly contribute to their sound exposure, for example work, transportation,
concerts, clubs, cinema, car races, etc.
10.6.5.2 Dose-based warning and requirements
When a dose of 100 % CSD is reached, and at least at every 100 % further increase of CSD, the device shall
warn the user and require an acknowledgement. In case the user does not acknowledge, the output level shall
automatically decrease to a level in compliance with class RS1 limits.
The warning shall at least clearly indicate that listening above 100 % CSD leads to the risk of hearing damage
or loss.
10.6.5.3 Exposure-based requirements
With only dose-based requirements, cause and effect could be far separated in time, defying the purpose of
educating users about safe listening practice. In addition to dose-based requirements, a PMP shall therefore
also put a limit to the short-term sound level a user can listen at.
The exposure-based limiter (EL) shall automatically reduce the sound level not to exceed 100 dB(A) or
150 mV integrated over the past 180 s, based on methodology defined in EN 50332-3:2017. The EL settling
time (time from starting level reduction to reaching target output level) shall be 10 s or less.
Test of EL functionality is conducted according to EN 50332-3:2017, using the limits from this clause. For
equipment provided as a package (player with its listening device), the level integrated over 180 s shall be
100 dB or lower. For equipment provided with a standardized connector, the un-weighted level integrated over
180 s shall be no more than 150 mV for an analogue interface and no more than −10 dBFS for a digital
interface.
In case the source is known not to be music (or test signal), the EL may be disabled.
10.6.6 Requirements for listening devices (headphones, earphones, etc.)
10.6.6.1 Corded listening devices with analogue input
With 94 dB L acoustic pressure output of the listening device, and with the volume and sound settings in
Aeq
the listening device (for example, built-in volume level control, additional sound features like equalization, etc.)
set to the combination of positions that maximizes the measured acoustic output level, the input voltage of the
listening device when playing the fixed “programme simulation noise” as described in EN 50332-1:2013 shall
be ≥ 75 mV.
NOTE The values of 94 dB and 75 mV correspond with 85 dB and 27 mV in 10.6.2.2. or 100 dB and 150 mV in
10.6.2.3.
10.6.6.2 Corded listening devices with digital input
With any playing device playing the fixed “programme simulation noise” described in EN 50332-1:2013, and
with the volume and sound settings in the listening device (for example, built-in volume level control, additional
sound features like equalization, etc.) set to the combination of positions that maximize the measured acoustic
output, the L , acoustic output of the listening device shall be ≤ 100 dB with an input signal of −10 dBFS.
T
Aeq
10.6.6.3 Cordless listening devices
In cordless mode,
with any playing and transmitting device playing the fixed programme simulation noise described in
EN 50332-1:2013; and
respecting the cordless transmission standards, where an air interface standard exists that specifies the
equivalent acoustic level; and
with volume and sound settings in the receiving device (for example, built-in volume level control, additional
sound features like equalization, etc.) set to the combination of positions that maximize the measured acoustic
output for the above mentioned programme simulation noise, the L , acoustic output of the listening device
T
Aeq
shall be ≤ 100 dB with an input signal of −10 dBFS.
10.6.6.4 Measurement method
Measurements shall be made in accordance with EN 50332-2:2013 as applicable.”
