Application Summary AI generated

This standard specifies the measurement methods and requirements for sound pressure levels of sound signal appliances (such as whistles, horns, and bells) installed on seagoing vessels. It is applied during vessel construction, certification, and periodic inspections to ensure that acoustic warning devices meet international maritime collision prevention regulations (COLREGS). The standard is used by shipbuilders, classification societies, and maritime authorities to verify audibility and compliance for safe navigation in busy waterways and poor visibility conditions.
