ISO 148-1:2016 specifies the Charpy (V-notch and U-notch) pendulum impact test method for determining the energy absorbed in an impact test of metallic materials. This part of ISO 148 does not cover instrumented impact testing, which is specified in ISO 14556. Annexes B and C are based on ASTM E23 and are used with the permission of ASTM International, 100 Barr Harbor Drive, P.O. Box C700, West Conshohocken, PA 19428-2959, USA.

 

ISO 148-2:2016 covers the verification of pendulum-type impact testing machines, in terms of their constructional elements, their overall performance and the accuracy of the results they produce. It is applicable to machines with 2 mm or 8 mm strikers used for pendulum impact tests carried out, for instance, in accordance with ISO 148-1. It can be applied to pendulum impact testing machines of various capacities and of different design. Impact machines used for industrial, general or research laboratory testing of metallic materials in accordance with this part of ISO 148 are referred to as industrial machines. Those with more stringent requirements are referred to as reference machines. Specifications for the verification of reference machines are found in ISO 148-3. ISO 148-2:2016 describes two methods of verification. a) The direct method, which is static in nature, involves measurement of the critical parts of the machine to ensure that it meets the requirements of this part of ISO 148. Instruments used for the verification and calibration are traceable to national or international standards. b) The indirect method, which is dynamic in nature, uses reference test pieces to verify points on the measuring scale for absorbed energy. The requirements for the reference test pieces are found in ISO 148-3. A pendulum impact testing machine is not in compliance with this part of ISO 148 until it has been verified by both the direct and indirect methods and meets the requirements of Clause 6 and Clause 7. ISO 148-2:2016 describes how to assess the different components of the total energy absorbed in fracturing a test piece. This total absorbed energy consists of - the energy needed to fracture the test piece itself, and - the internal energy losses of the pendulum impact testing machine performing the first half-cycle swing from the initial position. NOTE Internal energy losses are due to the following: - air resistance, friction of the bearings of the rotation axis and of the indicating pointer of the pendulum which can be determined by the direct method (see 6.4.5); - shock of the foundation, vibration of the frame and pendulum for which no suitable measuring methods and apparatus have been developed.

 

ISO 148-3:2016 specifies the requirements, preparation and methods for qualifying test pieces used for the indirect verification of pendulum impact testing machines in accordance with ISO 148-2. It specifies notched test pieces with nominal dimensions identical to those specified in ISO 148-1; however, the tolerances are more stringent. NOTE 1 The chemical composition or heat treatment, or both, are varied according to the energy level desired. NOTE 2 Reference test pieces are qualified on reference pendulum impact testing machines which are also described in this part of ISO 148.

 

This document specifies requirements for the types of industrial trucks specified in the scope of prEN ISO 3691-1:2025. This document is intended to be used in conjunction with prEN ISO 3691-1:2025. These requirements are supplementary to those stated in prEN ISO 3691-1:2025. This document deals with the following significant hazards, hazardous situations or hazardous events relevant, when it is used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer: - electrical requirements; - noise emissions; - vibration; - visibility. This document defines supplementary requirements to prEN ISO 3691-1:2025: - brakes; - travel and braking controls - additional operation from alongside pedestrian-controlled and stand-on trucks; - lift chains; - overhead guard; - operator’s seat; - operator restraint system; - automatic battery charging; - information for use (instruction handbook and marking). Annex A (informative) contains the list of significant hazards covered by this document.

 

This part of ISO 27327 establishes uniform methods for laboratory testing of air curtain units to determine aerodynamic performance in terms of airflow rate, outlet air velocity uniformity, power consumption and air velocity projection, for rating or guarantee purposes. This part of ISO 27327 is not applicable to the specification of test procedures to be used for design, production or field testing.
