Accelerometer Calibration

Accelerometer & Vibration Sensor Calibration

Traceable calibration for compatible small accelerometers and vibration transducers used for hand-arm vibration, whole-body vibration and related professional measurement applications.

Traceable Available UK Laboratory Express Service
Calibration Capability

Calibration for occupational and small vibration accelerometers

The accelerometer service focuses on single-axis accelerometers. In contrast, the human-vibration service supports complete single- or tri-axial systems, catering specifically to small occupational, HAV, and WBV transducers rather than high-frequency industrial models.

Instrument Types

What we calibrate

HAV Accelerometers

Small accelerometers mounted on tools, handles or adapters for hand-arm vibration exposure measurements.

WBV Accelerometers

Accelerometers used for whole-body vibration measurements on vehicles, machinery and occupied structures.

Seat-Pad Accelerometers

Seat-pad / seat-cushion transducers used for seated WBV exposure assessment.

Triaxial Accelerometers

Three-axis sensors supplied as part of compatible human-vibration measurement systems.

Tool-Mounted Sensors

Small sensors used on powered hand tools and machinery for occupational vibration measurement.
