BS 6955-17:1994

This standard BS 6955-17:1994 Calibration of vibration and shock pick-ups is classified in these ICS categories:

• 17.160 Vibrations, shock and vibration measurements

ISO 5347 comprises a series of documents dealing with methods for the calibration of vibration and shock pick-ups.

This part of ISO 5347 lays down detailed specifications for the instrumentation and procedure to be used for fixed temperature sensitivity testing. It applies to rectilinear pick-ups.

This part of ISO 5347 is applicable for the following parameters:

• frequency range: 20 Hz to 1 250 Hz;
• dynamic range:

  0,1 µm to 10 mm (frequency-dependent);

  1 mm/s to 1 m/s (frequency-dependent);

  10 m/s² to 1 000 m/s² (frequency-dependent);

• temperature range: − 45 °C to + 800 °C.

The uncertainty applicable is ± 10 % of reading.
