Aircraft ground support equipment - General requirements - Part 3: Vibration measurement methods and reduction
This Part of EN 1915 deals with vibration reduction as a safety requirement. It also describes the methods for determining the vibration emission transmitted to the whole body of drivers standing and/or seated on freely moveable GSE, when driving for purposes of type evaluation, declaration and methods of verifying vibration emission.
The test results are not applicable to the determination of whole body vibration exposure of persons.
Luftfahrtbodengeräte - Allgemeine Anforderungen - Teil 3: Schwingungsmessverfahren und -minderung
Dieser Teil von EN 1915 behandelt die Schwingungsminderung als eine sicherheitstechnische Anforderung. Er beschreibt die Verfahren für die Ermittlung der Ganzkörper?Schwingung, die während der Fahrt eines frei beweglichen Luftfahrt-Bodengerätes in der Bewertungsphase auf den Körper des stehenden und/oder sitzenden Fahrers einwirkt, sowie die Verfahren für die Angabe und Nachprüfung von Schwingungswerten.
Die Prüfergebnisse sind nicht auf die Bestimmung der Ganzkörper-Schwingungsbelastung von Personen anwendbar.
Matériel au sol pour aéronefs - Exigences générales - Partie 3 : Vibrations, réduction et méthodes de mesure
La présente partie de l'EN 1915 traite de la réduction des vibrations en tant qu'exigence de sécurité. Elle spécifie également les méthodes pour déterminer les émissions vibratoires transmises à l'ensemble du corps des conducteurs de GSE pour aéronefs, en position debout et/ou assise sur un matériel en déplacement libre, lorsqu'ils conduisent, à des fins d'évaluation de type, de déclaration et de vérification des émissions vibratoires.
Les résultats d'essai ne sont pas applicables à la détermination de l'exposition des individus aux vibrations affectant l'ensemble du corps.
