General Information
This document provides all of the information required in order to perform efficiently, and in standardized conditions, the determination, the declaration and the verification of noise emission values of refuse collection vehicles.
The document ensures the reproducibility of the determination of noise emission values within the limits established for the accuracy grade of the basic standard used to determine noise emission values.
This document specifies the noise measurement conditions for the types of RCVs defined and described in the standards of the EN 1501:2021 series.
This document applies to machines which are manufactured after the date of approval of this document by CEN.
Noise emissions of mobile waste and recycling containers are excluded.

This European Standard specifies the method for measuring the noise emission, which is a significant hazard of refuse collection vehicles (RCVs).
Its goal is to obtain, on one hand, the emission sound pressure level at the operator’s position(s) and, on the other hand, the sound power level of the RCV during waste collection. It specifies a standardized procedure for measurement and later comparison of RCVs noise emission, consisting of four operating conditions: chassis operation, compaction operation, lifting, tilting and lowering operation of a container and dumping of specified waste into the RCV.
Together with information concerning other parameters, the test results obtained in accordance with this standard are also applicable to the evaluation of the hazards generated by noise from RCVs.
This standard addresses the uncertainties due to measurement procedures.
This standard deals with the noise measurement conditions for the types of RCVs defined and described in the standards of the EN 1501 series.
