ISO 11820:2019

In-Situ Sound Attenuation Measurement of Silencers

ISO 11820 specifies the in-situ measurement method for determining the acoustic attenuation performance of silencers installed in railway ventilation ducts, brake systems, and exhaust lines. This test is critical for validating noise control equipment on operating trains and stationary installations where laboratory testing is impractical. Railway manufacturers, maintenance operators, and acoustic engineers use these measurements to verify compliance with noise regulations and to optimize silencer design. Accreditation ensures that attenuation claims are reliable and that performance targets for noise reduction are consistently achieved in real-world applications.

What it measures

  • Sound pressure level reduction across silencer (dB)
  • Attenuation performance by frequency band
  • Insertion loss of silencer in situ
  • Acoustic performance under operating conditions
  • Noise transmission loss through silencer element
