Methods for the Calibration of Shock and Vibration Pickups
Five methods have been selected as standard methods for the calibration of acceleration, velocity, and displacement pickups. They are described in Section 4 of this standard. It is impracticable to calibrate all pickups by one standard method over the entire frequency and amplitude range of vibrations and shocks to be measured by the pickups. Several methods are accordingly described. Each method is limited to a range of frequency and amplitude, and to the weight of pickup that can be calibrated. The limitationa may include, in addition, other variables such as volume of the pickup and temperature of operation.
