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 shock calibration of accelerometers by light cutting. It applies to rectilinear accelerometers of the strain gauge, piezoresistive and piezoelectric types and to primary standards.
This part of ISO 5347 is applicable for a time range from 0,1 m/s to 10 m/s and a dynamic range from 100m/s to 10m/s.
The limits of uncertainty applicable are ±3 % of the reading.
