Noise levels do not include noise from specimen breaks.
The noise values are measured at the ear level of an operator positioned in front of the
machine.
The noise level of the entire system depends on your particular system configuration.
Refer to the documentation supplied with other system components for information
about that component's noise level.
The noise output from equipment used for materials or structures testing is also depen-
dent upon the items under test. Instron recommends that users carry out their own noise
level measurements to ensure the continuous safety and comfort of personnel.
