This International Standard specifies instrumentation for a method of measurement of vibration in a given frequency range, given in ISO 2631-1 for assessing the vibration as perceived by human beings. It applies to instrumentation for the measurement of hand-arm vibration and/or whole-body vibration. For other methods of measurement, ISO 2631 and ISO 5349 should be consulted.
This International Standard specifies electrical, vibration and environmental tests to verify compliance with the characteristics specified (see clause 4). It also determines the method for sensitivity calibration.
The purpose of this International Standard is to ensure consistency and compatibility of results and reproducibility of measurements realized with different measuring instrumentation using this method of measurement.
An instrument or an instrument collection may be realized which fulfils only the necessary requirements for measurement of hand-arm or whole-body vibrations under certain conditions, for example in the z direction, provided that the purpose is clearly stated and pertinent requirements of this International Standard are fulfilled.
In conjunction with spectral analysis, proper filter charac-teristics shall be applied (see clause 4).
