Scope

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 specifi-cations for the instrumentation and procedure to be used for primary calibration of accelerometers using centrifuge calibration. This part of ISO 5347 applies to rectilinear acceler-ometers with zero-frequency response, mainly of the strain gauge or piezoresistive type, and to primary standard and working pick-ups. It is applicable for a calibration range from 10 m/s to 1 000 m/s (higher accelerations possible) at 0 Hz. The limits of uncertainty applicable are ± 1 % of reading.
