Abstract

This document gives information and guidance on the evaluation and assessment of hand-transmitted shock. For the purposes of this document, hand-transmitted shock is any impactive or impulsive vibration that the machine or tool produces as a sequence of single events (isolated shocks) linked by periods of no, or lower vibration. This document defines parameters for the evaluation of machinery emissions of hand-transmitted shocks in the frequency range covered by ISO 5349-1 (nominally 6,3 Hz to 1 250 Hz). NOTE It is recognised that shock vibration often includes substantial levels of high-frequency vibration energy. The measured peak values of hand-transmitted shock are likely to be higher if the upper frequency limit is increased. High-frequency shocks, composed of vibrations at frequencies greater than 1 250 Hz, are dealt with in ISO/PWI TS 5349-4.
