BS EN ISO 7500-2:2006

Metallic materials. Verification of static uniaxial testing machines. Tension creep testing machines. Verification of the applied force | Status: Current, Confirmed

1 Scope This part of ISO 7500 specifies the verification of testing machines used for uniaxial creep testing in tension in accordance with ISO 204. The verification consists of

• - a general inspection of the testing machine, and
• - a verification of the force applied by the testing machine.

This part of ISO 7500 applies to dead-weight machines, lever-type creep testing machines and direct-spring-loading machines. Machines with a force-measuring system1) should be verified in accordance with ISO 7500-1, Metallic materials - Verification of static uniaxial testing machines - Part 1: Tension/compression testing machines - Verification and calibration of the force-measuring system.
