BS EN ISO 9902-6:2021

This standard BS EN ISO 9902-6:2021 Textile machinery. Noise test code is classified in these ICS categories:

• 59.120.30 Looms. Weaving machines
• 17.140.20 Noise emitted by machines and equipment

This document covers the different types of weaving and knitting machines defined in ISO 5247 (all parts)[²] and ISO 7839[³], respectively.

It is applicable to:

• full-width weaving machines with weft insertion by:

  • shuttles;

  • rigid, telescopic or flexible rapiers;

  • projectiles;

  • hydraulic (waterjet) or by pneumatic (airjet) nozzle;

• narrow fabric weaving machines with weft insertion by shuttles or needles;

• jacquard machines;

• knitting machinery including:

  • circular knitting;

  • flat bed knitting;

  • warp knitting;

  • raschel;

  • cotton (flat weft weaving);

• other fabric manufacturing machines e.g.:

  • multi-phase weaving machines;

  • circular weaving machines;

  • stitch bonding machines.

NOTE Because of the high requirements on measurement conditions, grade 1 methods are normally not feasible for textile machinery.
