Report on the NOMAD pre-market surveillance exercise regarding noise information in sales literature of machines

This report, prepared by the NOMAD Task Force and presented to the Machinery ADCO in June 2023, focuses on a pre-market surveillance exercise conducted as part of NOMAD Phase 3. The NOMAD (NOise MAchinery Directive) Project aims to assess and improve the quality of noise information provided by machinery manufacturers in sales literature and instruction manuals of machinery in accordance with Directive 2006/42/EC. This premarket surveillance exercise examined the compliance of noise information in sales literature that machinery manufacturers have to provide in compliance with EHSR 1.7.4.3, if the sales literature contains the performance characteristics of the machine. The study investigated 85 samples of sales literature and 45 instruction manuals collected in five EU Member States.
