ISO 15664:2001

Acoustics — Noise control design procedures for open plant

This International Standard defines the procedures for noise control of mainly open plants.

It is applicable to the following:

_ specification of procedures for noise control during engineering of a new plant and modification/extension of

existing plants (construction noise procedures are outside the scope of this International Standard but should

be considered);

_ definition of responsibilities of parties involved, viz. “end-user”, “engineering contractor” and “equipment

supplier”;

_ description of general procedures to arrive at noise requirements for individual equipment, on the basis of

overall noise requirements for the plant.

A schematic flowchart, reviewing the noise control process, is presented in annex A and a summary of action items

is presented in annex B.

NOTE Concerning specific engineering methods for the acoustic design and analysis of plants, use should be made of

other standards and textbooks.
