ISO 6487 Road Vehicles - Measurement Techniques in Impact Tests - Instrumentation

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of ISO 6487 testing. This International Standard gives requirements and recommendations for measurement techniques involving instruments used in impact tests on road vehicles.

While their requirements are aimed at facilitating comparisons between results obtained by different testing laboratories, their recommendations will help those laboratories meet these requirements. It can be applied to instrumentation, including those used in impact testing of vehicle subassemblies. It does not cover optical methods that are the subject of ISO 8721.

These requirements cannot be changed by the user, and all are mandatory for any organization that conducts tests according to this International Standard. However, the method of demonstrating compliance with them is flexible and can be adapted to suit the needs of the particular equipment used by a testing organization.

Not every condition is intended to be taken as mandatory proof by a single test. Rather, any organization proposing to perform tests according to this International Standard is intended to ensure that its equipment will meet the requirements if and when a particular test can and will be performed. This evidence will be based on reasonable inferences from the available data, such as the results of partial tests.

According to studies conducted by technical experts, no significant difference was detected between the characteristics of the load transducer in measurements made using static and dynamic calibration methods. This new version helps define the dynamic calibration method for force and moment data channels in accordance with existing knowledge base and existing studies.

To summarize, this International standard allows users of impact test results to call up a set of relevant instrumentation requirements by simply specifying ISO 6487. In this case, testing organizations have the primary responsibility to ensure that the ISO 6487 requirements are met by their instrumentation systems. Evidence on which they base this evidence assessment will be available to the user upon request. In this way, the fixed requirements that ensure the suitability of the instrumentation for impact testing can be combined with flexible methods that demonstrate compliance with these requirements.
