Hammer model selection involves determining the size and mass of the hammer structure which will provide the force amplitude and frequency content required for proper excitation of the structure under test. Large, heavy structures like locomotive frames, tanks and bridges require an instrumented sledgehammer;...
TESTING Generally speaking, the impact tips affect the hammer impulse frequency content, and the extender affects the signal energy level. Frequency content and energy level are interrelated, so both will be affected by different hammer structures. Hammer velocity at impact will also affect both. In general, massive structures with lower stiffness require the use of the extender and soft impact tip to adequately excite low frequency resonances.
When configuring your oscilloscope or data acquisition system, it is recommended that the input be set to DC coupled. This is because, in some cases, the time constant associated with the equipment’s AC ® coupling circuit is less then that of the impulse hammer and PCB ICP power units.
PRECAUTIONS Although hammers are very rugged in construction, damage can result from misuse. When observed, the following precautions can ensure long life and accurate data. 1. Do not attempt to dismantle sensor element from hammer structure. All service should be performed at the factory.
