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 high impact shock calibration of ac-celerometers. It applies to rectilinear accelerometers, mainly of the piezoelectric and piezoresistive type, to primary standards and working accelerometers.
This part of ISO 5347 is applicable for a time range from 10 μs to 100 μs and a dynamic range from 10 m/s to 10 m/s.
The limit of uncertainty applicable is ±10 % of read-ing.
