Noise Emission. Notes concerning noise emission: Given that there exists a relationship between noise level and exposure times, it is not possible to precisely determine the need for supplementary precautions. The factors affecting the true level of exposure to operators are clearly the amount of time exposed and the characteristics of the working environment, such as other sources of dust and noise, etc., for example, adjacent machines - in other words, the level of ambient noise. It is possible that exposure level limits will vary from country to country. Specification sheet.
