ISO 10816 Standards 
As an alternative to the Overall Vibration Severity Scale 
included in the Meter, you can use the ISO Standard 
10816-1 to evaluate the severity of overall vibration levels. 
Table 7 is a chart that contains the values from this 
standard. You can compare the overall vibration value 
measured with the Meter to this table to identify the 
vibration severity.
