Penentuan Tingkat Daya Suara di Ruang Semi Kedap Suara Studi Kasus: Alat Penyedot Debu

Vacuum cleaners are one of the home appliances that produced noise. For the daily cleaning workers, the noise exposure from vacuum cleaners can cause health problems. Therefore, there is a need for standard rules to regulate the noise limit value of a vacuum cleaner. The noise limit known as sound power level value can be determined based on the sound pressure level measurement in the anechoic room based on ISO3745:2012. In this measurement, the sound power level of a vacuum cleaner reaches up to 101.32 dB(A). That is because the vacuum cleaner measured is more than three years old. Meanwhile, the sound power level of new vacuum cleaners on the market ranges from 65 dB(A) to 90 dB(A). However, the important thing that can be taken from this case is that it is necessary to know the noise level of household appliances before they are marketed. It aims to ensure that the circulating equipment does not exceed the threshold so that it is safe to operate.
