Vehicular audio waring is covered in UN regulation #28 and NHTSA (DOT) 812-209.
Fire alarm stuff can be found in UL1480 and CAN S525; and other stuff in UL464A, UL1971, CAN S526; but have no direct experience with application of these particular standards. Brian From: Doug Powell [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, February 06, 2017 3:58 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [PSES] Acoustic Warning - sound pressure level All, I recall some time ago reading information on minimum sound pressure level for acoustic warning in noisy environments. It was possibly in an IEC standard or a handbook making recommendations. As I recall the recommendation was something like warning bells, horns and klaxons should be 3 to 6 dB SPL above the ambient noise level in the immediate work area. If this is not possible or operators may be wearing hearing protection, then visual warnings should also be included. Can someone point me in the right direction?
