Piezoelectric sensors - Part 1: Generic specifications

IEC 63041-1:2017(E) applies to piezoelectric sensors of resonator, delay-line and non‑acoustic types, which are used in physical and engineering sciences, chemistry and biochemistry, medical and environmental sciences, etc. The purpose of this document is to specify the terms and definitions for the piezoelectric sensors, and to make sure from a technological perspective that users understand the state‑of-art piezoelectric sensors and how to use them correctly.

Piezoelektrische Sensoren - Teil 1: Fachgrundspezifikation

Capteurs piézoelectriques - Partie 1: Spécifications génériques

L'IEC 63041-1:2017 s'applique aux capteurs piézoélectriques de résonateur, à ligne de retard et non acoustique, utilisés en sciences physiques, en sciences de l'ingénierie, en chimie et en biochimie, en sciences médicales et environnementales, etc. Le présent document a pour objet de spécifier les termes et définitions relatifs aux capteurs piézoélectriques et de vérifier, d'un point de vue technologique, que les utilisateurs ont une bonne approche des capteurs piézoélectriques de pointe et qu'ils savent les utiliser correctement.

Piezoelektrični senzorji - 1. del: Splošne specifikacije (IEC 63041-1:2017)

Ta del standarda IEC 63041 velja za piezoelektrične senzorje resonatorja, kasnilnega in neakustičnega tipa, ki se uporabljajo v fizičnih in inženirskih znanostih, kemiji in biokemiji, medicinski in okoljski znanosti itn.
Namen tega dokumenta je določiti izraze in definicije piezoelektričnih senzorjev ter iz tehnološkega vidika zagotoviti, da uporabniki razumejo najsodobnejše piezoelektrične senzorje in kako jih pravilno uporabljati.
