CEN/TC 261/SC 5/WG 14 is a Subcommittee within the European Committee for Standardization (CEN). It is named "Test methods and test schedules" and is responsible for: WG4 coordinates and prepares the range of basic test methods in the field of TC 261. WG4 may prepare additional test methods upon request from SC2, SC3 or SC4. This committee has published 2 standards.
CEN/TC 261/SC 5/WG 14 develops CEN standards. The scope of work includes: WG4 coordinates and prepares the range of basic test methods in the field of TC 261. WG4 may prepare additional test methods upon request from SC2, SC3 or SC4. Currently, there are 2 published standards from this subcommittee.
The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) is a public standards organization that brings together the national standardization bodies of 34 European countries. CEN provides a platform for developing European Standards (ENs) and other technical documents in relation to various products, materials, services, and processes, supporting the European Single Market.
A Subcommittee (SC) in CEN operates under a Technical Committee and focuses on a specific subset of the TC's scope. Subcommittees develop standards and technical specifications in their specialized area, reporting to their parent Technical Committee. They may also have working groups for detailed technical work.
This standard specifies the technical and functional properties of automatic recording equipment used to determine randomly appearing shocks during transportation.
Such automatic recording equipment can be used to:
- determine mechanical shock loads on individual transportations;
- monitor the transportation means to observe the limits of the shock parameters;
- determine the shock loads on the transported item.
This standard defines the sensors to be attached to the device, and specifies the minimum requirements for the parameters to be adjusted. It also defines the minimum requirements for the data analysis, as well as the data presentation.
This standard covers the complete recording equipment, including its accelerometers and the data analysis in an external data processing unit. The accelerometers can be integrated into the device or separately mounted from it (external sensors).
This standard also applies to the routine monitoring of individual transportations
