STANDARDS
Noise
Measurement according to the standard EN 500-4 Rev.1:
1998, Annex C:
Measurement uncertainty ± 0,5dB (A) i 95% of
measurements.
In accordance with the conditions in Directive 2000/14/EC,
Annex VI, the following values are reported:
FB 515
Sound pressure level at the operator’s ears, LpA 93 dB (A)
Permitted sound power level, L WA 108 dB (A)
Guaranteed sound power level, L WA 108 dB (A)
Since the sound pressure level in the operator’s ears
exceeds
80 dB (A), ear protectors must be used during operation!
Hand/arm vibration
Vibration acceleration has been measured according to the
ISO 5349 standard when driving on macadam substrates.
The measured values have been converted to maximum
daily exposure during regular use. Further information
is available in the work environment regulations AFS
2005:15 on vibration, valid from 1 July 2005.
Measurement uncertainty ± 0,3 m/s2 i 95 % of
measurements.
FB 515
Hand/arm vibration, m/s22.6
Maximum daily exposure 7,4h
Exhaust Emissions
FB515 meets the requirements for exhaust emissions in
accordance with Euro V.
