Test Procedures
These standards outline test procedures and methods used for tractors and other machinery used in agriculture and forestry.
ISO 12188-1:2010
Tractors and machinery for agriculture and forestry - Test procedures for positioning and guidance systems in agriculture - Part 1: Dynamic testing of satellite-based positioning devices
ISO 12188-1:2010 provides a procedure for evaluating and reporting the accuracy of navigation data determined using positioning devices that are based on GPS, GLONASS, Galileo or similar global navigation satellite systems (GNSS). It focuses on the performance of the positioning devices while they are subject to motions typical of ground-based agricultural field operations and specifies common performance parameters that can be used to quantify and compare the dynamic performance of different positioning devices.
ISO 12188-2:2012
Tractors and machinery for agriculture and forestry - Test procedures for positioning and guidance systems in agriculture - Part 2: Testing of satellite-based auto-guidance systems during straight and level travel
ISO 12188-2:2012 specifies the process for evaluating and reporting the performance of agricultural vehicles equipped with automated guidance systems based on a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) when operating in an automatic steering mode.
The main performance criterion is the lateral deviation of a representative point on the vehicle from a desired trajectory for that point. This performance criterion integrates the uncertainties associated with the performance of all components of the vehicle guidance system including the positioning device(s), automated steering components, and vehicle mechanisms and dynamics.
ISO 12188-2:2012 focuses on steady-state tracking performance of the automated guidance system while travelling on straight paths over a level surface.
ISO 14269-1:1997
Tractors and self-propelled machines for agriculture and forestry -- Operator enclosure environment -- Part 1: Vocabulary
ISO 14269 specifies test methods and criteria for the evaluation of the operator enclosure in agricultural and forestry tractors, and self-propelled machines.
This part of ISO 14269 gives terms and definitions which are used in the other parts of ISO 14269.
ISO 14269-2:1997
Tractors and self-propelled machines for agriculture and forestry - Operator enclosure environment - Part 2: Heating, ventilation and air-conditioning test method and performance
This part of ISO 14269 specifies a uniform test method for measuring the contribution to operator environmental temperature and humidity provided by an air-conditioning, heating and ventilation system operating in a specific ambient environment for tractors and self-propelled machines for agriculture and forestry. The method may not determine the complete climatic environment of the operator since this is also affected by heat load from sources other than those on the machine, for example solar heating. It is recommended that part 3 of ISO 14269 be used in conjunction with this part to determine more accurately the complete heat loading on the operator enclosure. Minimum performance levels for the machine's operator enclosure air conditioning, heating and ventilation systems are established in this part.
ISO 14269-3:1997
Tractors and self-propelled machines for agriculture and forestry -- Operator enclosure environment -- Part 3: Determination of effect of solar heating
This part of ISO 14269 specifies a test method for simulating solar heating in the laboratory and measuring the radiant heat energy from a natural or simulated source. This standard is applicable to tractors and self-propelled machines for agriculture and forestry when equipped with an operator enclosure.
ISO 14269-4:1997
Tractors and self-propelled machines for agriculture and forestry - Operator enclosure environment - Part 4: Air filter element test method
This part of ISO 14269 specifies a uniform test method for determining performance levels of operator enclosure panel-type air filters. It is applicable to tractors and self-propelled machines for agriculture and forestry when equipped with an operator enclosure with a ventilation system.
ISO 14269-5:1997
Tractors and self-propelled machines for agriculture and forestry - Operator enclosure environment - Part 5: Pressurization system test method
This part of ISO 14269 specifies a test procedure which will provide for uniform measurement of the pressurization inside an operator enclosure of tractors and self-propelled machines for agriculture and forestry when equipped with a ventilation system.
ISO 27850:2013
Tractors for agriculture and forestry - Falling object protective structures - Test procedures and performance requirements
ISO 27850:2013 sets forth the test procedures and performance requirements for a falling-object protective structure, in the event such a structure is installed on an agricultural or forestry tractor
ISO 27850:2013 is applicable to agricultural and forestry tractors having at least two axles for pneumatic tyred wheels or having tracks instead of wheels.
It does not apply to forestry machinery as defined in ISO 6814.
ISO 3463:2006
Tractors for agriculture and forestry - Roll-over protective structures (ROPS) - Dynamic test method and acceptance conditions
ISO 3463:2006 specifies a dynamic test method and the acceptance conditions for roll-over protective structures (cab or frame) of wheeled tractors for agriculture and forestry.
It is applicable to tractors having at least two axles for wheels mounted with pneumatic tyres, or having tracks instead of wheels, with an unballasted tractor mass of not less than 600 kg, but generally less than 6 000 kg, and with a minimum track width of the rear wheels greater than 1 150 mm.
