VDI/VDE 2624 Blatt 3.1:2011-12

The guideline describes the calibration of 4-chanel force-measurement systems, which are used for determination of radial stresses and their distributions at spring band clamps. The structure of the force-measurement system is described. Beyond that the necessary steps for the calibration and the documentation of the results are described. The guideline is valid for the static power measurement for the determination of the force distribution of the four concentrated loads of spring band clamps. On the basis of DIN EN ISO 7500-1, procedures are described for calibrating 4-channel force measuring devices. The guideline is valid in conjunction with DIN EN ISO 7500-1.
