HUMAN EXPOSURE TO HAND-ARM VIBRATION – ONSITE TESTING PER ASTM S2.70-2006 GUIDE FOR THE MEASUREMENT AND EVALUATION OF HUMAN EXPOSURE TO VIBRATION TRANSMITTED TO THE HAND, ISO 5349-2

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1528270240641{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]Spectra Tech employes sophisticated equipment and software to measurement and evaluate the human hand-arm or whole body vibration exposure experienced by workers (expressed in terms of acceleration, velocity, displacement). We can also provide assistance in designing solutions to reduce excessive vibration.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][mk_custom_list style=”mk-icon-caret-right”]

  • Units of vibration: The units of vibration depend on the vibrational parameter, as follows: acceleration, measured in g or [m/s2] velocity, measured in [m/s] displacement, measured in [m].
  • Vibration testing requires the use of a contact pickup, known as an accelerometer.
  • Test readings are usually taken in the three geometric axes: x, y, z, to determine the direction and degree of motion.
  • Spectra Tech uses the latest FFT analysis technology to diagnose vibration. Please see additional information at Detailed Specifications
  • Our system is capable of logging vibration data, and can precisely identify vibration and harmonics over a frequency range of 0.05 Hz to 20,000 Hz, with up to 6400 lines of resolution.
  • Our system can detect vibration as low as 0.0001 m/s2 acceleration in the lowest frequency range of 0.5 Hz to 100 Hz with extremely high accuracy.
  • The system is therefore suited to even the most demanding vibration tests, such as testing of worker’s hand-arm vibration exposure while operating moving equipment (e.g., earth movers, fork lifts, etc. :
  • Plot / Print Test Results: We can provide documentation of test results by plotting / printing the test values on paper, and / or provide the reslts in PDF format.
