ISO 5348

Accelerometer Mechanical Mounting Methods

ISO 5348 specifies the mechanical mounting requirements and installation methods for accelerometers used in vibration measurement and monitoring applications. Proper mounting is critical because accelerometer resonance and damping characteristics are strongly influenced by how the device is attached to the test structure. Industries including aerospace, automotive, mechanical engineering, and maintenance rely on this standard to ensure measurement accuracy and repeatability in vibration diagnostics. Accreditation to this standard demonstrates that a laboratory understands the physical factors affecting transducer performance and can provide traceable, reliable vibration data. Correct mounting practices are fundamental to valid vibration measurement across all frequency ranges.

What it measures

  • Transverse sensitivity effects of mounting
  • Frequency response accuracy with different mounting methods
  • Resonance frequency stability
  • Mechanical coupling effects
  • Temperature compensation for mounted accelerometers
