Abstract

This paper presents the research results of measuring noise level in 2010 and 2013 in accordance with the prescribed norms ISO 6395 related to the measurement of environmental noise produced by the moving tractor and ISO 6396 and ISO 5131 related to the measurement of internal noise at the operator's place when the tractor moving. Measurements were performed on the test area of Belje Inc. near the Mirkovac. Investigations were carried out on three tractors brands FENDT model 410 to determine the level of produced noise increased in relation to the age of the tractor (working hours). The results show that none of the examined agricultural tractors not produced higher noise levels than the allowed 80 dB, which confirms the hypothesis that older tractors emit higher noise than newer tractors.
