EN The sound power level as a parameter characterizing a sound source, as opposed to the sound pressure level, should theoretically not depend on the place of measurement and distance from the source. Therefore, it is often used as a basis for comparing machines and equipment in terms of noise emissions. Manufacturers usually specify this parameter in the technical documentation or on the equipment. The sound power level is also a necessary parameter for modelling the natural and working environment in terms of acoustics. The standards for methods of determining the sound power level define three classes of accuracy depending on the method and environment of measurement. The paper outlines the problems associated with determining the sound power level of non-standard machines in situ. The case study concerns a machine, a modular SRP (shelf ready packaging) production system that can be part of an extensive production line. Specific for this type of machine is the coexistence of many local sources generating sound of different nature, cyclic mode of operation and the possibility to set different capacity.
