Overview
ISO 16063-1:1998/Amd 2:2025 is the second amendment to the internationally recognized standard that establishes the basic concepts for methods of calibrating vibration and shock transducers. Published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), this document enhances the foundational principles used in ensuring accurate measurement and calibration techniques vital for vibration and shock analysis.
This amendment specifically updates definitions and test procedures related to the magnetic field sensitivity of vibration and shock transducers, reflecting the latest advances in calibration technology.
Key Topics
Magnetic Field Sensitivity
This amendment revises subclause 4.3.6 to clarify how vibration and shock transducers respond to sinusoidal magnetic fields at typical power line frequencies (e.g., 50 Hz or 60 Hz). It defines magnetic field sensitivity as the ratio of the transducer's maximum output to the applied magnetic flux density.Calibration Test Apparatus
It specifies the use of Helmholtz coils in two configurations:- A pair of Helmholtz coils capable of rotation around the transducer to create a uniform magnetic field and find the maximum transducer output.
- An alternative apparatus with three orthogonally arranged pairs of Helmholtz coils that generate a sinusoidal magnetic field by varying currents independently in each coil pair.
References and Bibliography
The amendment incorporates ISO 16063-33, which outlines the detailed methods for testing magnetic field sensitivity in vibration and shock transducers, ensuring standardization across laboratories and industries.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through
ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee
has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations,
governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely
with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described
in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the different types
of ISO document should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the
ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
