SV 103 USER'S MANUAL________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION Vibration risk and it’s assessment During human contact with the surface of the vibrating machine, mechanical vibrations are transmitted directly to the human body, affecting the individual tissues or even the whole body. Vibration that affects humans is called human vibration and is divided into whole-body and hand-arm vibration. -
Page 6: Sv 103 As A New Generation Vibration Exposure Meter
SV 103 is the first ever made personal hand-arm Daily Vibration Exposure Meter (DVEM). Instrument meets ISO 8041 standard and it is an ideal choice for the measurements according to ISO 5349. The SV 103 is typically attached to the user’s arm. Similarly to noise dosimeters, SV 103 daily vibration exposure meter is small enough not to interfere with working activities. -

These tests shall be carried out immediately before and after measurements are made. The SV 103 instrument is offered with the dedicated SV 107 hand-arm accelerometer. It makes the calibration very easy by direct usage of commonly available vibration calibrators. The instrument is factory calibrated with the supplied accelerometer. -
Page 22: Calibration The Instrument
Notice: The manufacturer’s recommended factory calibration interval is every 12 months for this instrument to be confident in its continuing accuracy and compliance with the international specifications. Please contact your local SVANTEK distributor for further details. 4.5.1 Calibration the Instrument To calibrate the instrument the user has to perform next steps: 1. -
Page 23: Verification The Instrument's Calibration
Notice: If it is required to perform so called post-calibration of the instrument (in case the Post Calibration is pre-programmed within configuration setup) the SV 103 automatically adds the calibration factor to the header of the result files. This doesn’t modify the saved results and gives the user to possibility to compare the possible changes of accelerometer sensitivity before and after the measurements. -
