40、cedures for controlling noise in plant and equipment for use in power generation, petroleum, petrochemical and other industries. It applies both to the design and construction of new plants and to the modification of existing plants where noise reduction is required. Noise control is a continuing pr

41、ocess which starts at the earliest stage of design and carries on throughout the operation of the plant. It is a process which requires close co-operation between the Principal, Contractor and Equipment Vendor as defined in Section 1.2. This Specification deals primarily with the stages up to the co

42、mmissioning of the plant or equipment. However, it is sufficiently comprehensive to provide guidance on noise control during operations, particularly in the diagnosis of sources of neighbourhood nuisance. The acquiring and reporting of noise data in a standard manner is a key feature of design for n

43、oise control and is a field in which there is a need for uniformity. This Specification is therefore intended to provide standard methods in which this can be achieved. Although the measurement and calculation procedures in this Specification are practicable and adequate for use in most cases, speci

44、al situations may be encountered where they cannot be employed precisely as specified. In such cases it may be necessary to modify the procedures. An explanation of the theory and philosophy behind the procedures is therefore included so that a consistency of approach and accuracy can be maintained.

45、 Some special cases of noise-level prediction - particularly indoor situations where enclosures or screens are to be employed - are beyond the scope of this specification, and the methods of calculation described in standard texts should be employed. This guide is the Third Edition of EEMUA Publicat

46、ion 140. The aim of this revision is to make reference to the latest standards and to ensure that the most up to date advice and guidance is given. It describes the principles to be applied in selecting noise limits and gives worked examples of the calculation methods. Chapter 1 defines the scope of

47、 the Specification and the division of responsibilities between the three main parties in a construction project: the Principal, Contractor and Equipment Vendor. In any given project there may be contractual requirements which define in detail the relationship between these parties, particularly wit

48、h reference to performance guarantees, and it is not within the scope of this Specification to provide a precise legal contract for the project. Nevertheless, the general framework given here defines the essential features of any such contract. The notation and terms used in this Specification have

49、been chosen as far as possible to be in accordance with current international practice. Chapter 2 defines the measurement and reporting of equipment noise. Its aim is to specify measuring procedures which can be used in the practical situations encountered in plants and factories. These procedures are based on the use of a precision sound-level meter equipped with octave-band filters and an accelerometer; equipment which could be readily available in plants and factories. They include a correcti
