This International Standard specifies the performance specifications and tolerance limits for instruments
designed to measure vibration values, for the purpose of assessing human response to vibration. It includes
requirements for pattern evaluation, periodic verification and in-situ checks, and the specification of vibration
calibrators for in-situ checks.
Vibration instruments specified in this International Standard can be single instruments, combinations of
instrumentation or computer-based acquisition and analysis systems.
Vibration instruments specified in this International Standard are intended to measure vibrations for one or
more applications, such as
