Test conditions and instrumentation.

§ 572.103 Test conditions and instrumentation. (a) Headform accelerometers shall have dimensions, response characteristics, and sensitive mass locations specified in drawing SA572-S4 (incorporated by reference; see § 572.100) and be mounted in the headform as shown in drawing 92041-001 (incorporated by reference; see § 572.100). (b) The outputs of accelerometers installed in the headform are recorded in individual data channels that conform to the requirements of SAE Recommended Practice J211, OCT 1988, “Instrumentation for Impact Tests,” Class 1000 (incorporated by reference; see § 572.100). (c) Coordinate signs for instrumentation polarity conform to the sign convention shown in the Free-Motion Headform User's Manual (incorporated by reference; see § 572.100). (d) The mountings for accelerometers shall have no resonant frequency within a range of 3 times the frequency range of the applicable channel class. EC01AU91.173 [60 FR 43060, Aug. 18, 1995]
