CEN shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publicat

This standard is a complement to the European Standard EN ISO 354 and is not intended to replace it. The complement includes more stringent rules, n

According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria,
19、Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Sw

DIN EN 16487:2015-02 EN 16487:2014 (E) 4 Introduction Product standard EN 13964 “Suspended ceilings Requirements and test methods” provides information on how to mark or label products for the CE marking. When the suspended ceiling has a sound absorption pro
21、perty, its sound absorption coefficients should be established by testing according to EN ISO 354. The measured sound absorption coefficients are calculated into the practical sound absorption coefficient , in octave bands and into a single number value wwith shape indicator, in accordance with EN I
22、SO 11654. The single number value wis used for the CE marking. Measurement of sound absorption coefficients according to EN ISO 354 is through earlier RRTs (Round Robin Tests) known to generate large spread in results from different laboratories. This is not acceptable, either from a competition poi
23、nt of view or from an end-user perspective. Therefore, CEN/TC 126 “Acoustic properties of building elements and of buildings” decided to set up a working group, WG 11 “Test Code for suspended ceilings”, with the scope to improve reproducibility by developing a Test Code. One part of this work was to
24、 organize a Round Robin Test (RRT) for sound absorption measurements. DIN EN 16487:2015-02 EN 16487:2014 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies additional necessary information on how to carry out efficiently and under standardized conditions the determination of the sound absorption coeffic
25、ients according to EN ISO 354 “Measurement of sound absorption in a reverberation room”. It specifies the additional requirements of the sound absorption measurements and the operating and mounting conditions that should be used for the test. Observe that all demands in EN ISO 354 still should be fu
26、lfilled. The results obtained are used for design calculations with respect to room acoustics and to convert frequency-dependent sound absorption coefficients into a weighted sound absorption coefficient w, according to EN ISO 11654. This European Standard is applicable for the compile of the single
27、 number rating w, to express the sound absorption performance of suspended ceiling membranes in CE marking and labelling according to EN 13964. This European Standard is not applicable for suspended ceiling kits according to EN 13964. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in pa

(EN ISO 354:2003, 6.2.1.2) 4.1.1.1.6 Mounting fixture shall be of solid, preferably wooden material, without any cavities and with a surface density of at least 20 kg/m2. (EN ISO 354:2003, B.4
41、) NOTE In order to have a mounting fixture, flexible to small variations of the specimen size, the so called “wind mill solution” might be an alternative to a fixed-size mounting fixture, Figure 3. Figure 3 Mounting fixture of wind mill type 4.1.1.1.7 Open joints within the mounting fixture shall be
42、 sealed to prevent air leakage between the enclosed space and the outside. Any open cavity inside the fixture shall also be sealed, to avoid sound absorption in the enclosed space in accordance to EN ISO 354:2003, B.4. 4.1.1.2 Type of plane absorber mounting 4.1.1.2.1 Type A mounting according to EN
43、 ISO 354:2003, B.2 4.1.1.2.1.1 This mounting is used for products that are attached directly against a hard surface or substructure by adhesives or mechanical fasteners, which do not leave any thin air space between the product and the surface to which it is attached. 4.1.1.2.1.2 The perimeter edge
44、of the test specimen shall be sealed or covered with the mounting fixture as described in 4.1.1.1 to prevent the edges from absorbing sound. However if the edges of the test specimen are exposed when the products are normally installed in an actual application, then the edges of the test DIN EN 1648
45、7:2015-02 EN 16487:2014 (E) 9 specimen shall not be sealed or covered by any mounting fixture during a test. If the edges are not sealed or covered, the area of the edges shall be included in calculating the test specimen area. The treatment of the edges of the test specimen shall be described in th
46、e test report. If the area of the specimen edges was included in the calculation of test specimen area, this shall be noted in the test report. 4.1.1.2.2 Type B mounting according to EN ISO 354:2003, B.3 4.1.1.2.2.1 This mounting is used for products that are glued directly to a hard surface with an
47、 acoustic panel adhesive, an application which normally leaves a thin airspace between the product and the surface to which it is adhered. 4.1.1.2.2.2 The perimeter edge of the test specimen shall be sealed or covered with the mounting fixture as described in 4.1.1.1 to prevent the edges from absorb
48、ing sound. If there are no instructions how thick to apply the dabs of the adhesive, a 3 mm airspace shall be used. In order to secure the air space, shims of 3 mm thickness of size 25 mm by 25 mm shall be located at the 4 corners of each test object. 4.1.1.2.2.3 If a gypsum board is used as the har
49、d surface it shall remain in the reverberation room also during the measurement of the empty room reverberation. 4.1.1.2.3 Type E mounting according to EN ISO 354:2003, B.4 4.1.1.2.3.1 This mounting is used for products that are suspended from a hard surface creating an important air space in between. According to EN ISO 11654, it is recommended to make at least one measurement with an overall depth of construction of 200 mm, which also shall be used for the compilation of data for CE marking, Figure 2. 4.1.1.2.3.2 For the purpos
