1 Scope
This International Standard describes the mounting characteristics of accelerometers
to be specified by the manufacturer and makes recommendations to the user for mounting
accelerometers.
Application of this International Standard is limited to the mounting of accelerometers
which are mounted on the surface of the structure in motion, as illustrated in the
simplified diagram shown in figure 1.
It is not applicable to other types of transducers, such as relative motion pick-ups.
