Noise emissions were tested directly on the vehicle and under real operating conditions. The aim was to analyze noise emissions and ensure compliance with normative limits. Passenger comfort was also evaluated.
Gian Spescha, Head of Testing, Stadler Rail Schweiz AG, says about the project:
“With the precise measurement technology from imc Test & Measurement and the measuring microphones from GRAS, we were able to collect reliable data that is indispensable for approval and optimization. The combination of experience and innovative technology ensures reliable results, leading to increased safety and improved ride comfort.”
