a) Add the Clause 3 "Terms and Definitions".
b) Adjust the Clause 3 of ISO 13355.2016 into Clause 4 of this Document.
c) Adjust the Clause 4 of ISO 13355.2016 into Clause 5 of this Document; adjust
4.1 and 4.2 of ISO 13355.2016 into 5.1 and 5.2 of this Document, respectively.
d) Adjust "The installation of test sample on vibration bench shall comply with the
provisions of 9.1.3.5 in GB/T 4857.17-2017" specified in Clause 4 of ISO
13355.2016 into 6.5.2 of this Document.
e) Adjust 5.1 of ISO 13355.2016 into 6.1 of this Document; adjust 5.2 of ISO
13355.2016 into 6.3 of this Document; and adjust Clause 6 of ISO 13355.2016
into 6.5 of this Document.
f) Add the Appendixes C and D.
The technical differences and causes between this Document and ISO 13355.2016
are as follows.
a) Regarding Normative References, this Document has made adjustments with
technical differences to adapt to China's technical conditions. The adjustments
are reflected in Clause 2 Normative References. The specific adjustments are
as follows.
Add the quotation of GB/T 4122.5 (see Clause 3 of this Edition);
Use GB/T 4857.1 that modifies and adopts the international standard to
replace ISO 2006 (see 6.2 of this Edition);
Use GB/T 4857.2 that modifies and adopts the international standard to
replace ISO 2233 (see 6.3 of this Edition);
Use GB/T 4857.3 that equivalently adopts the international standard to
replace ISO 2234 (see 6.5.2 of this Edition);
Add the quotation of GB/T 4857.17-2017 (6.5.2, 6.1 of this Edition);
b) Add the Clause 3 "Terms and Definitions"; give specific definitions on PSD and g
rms;
c) Delete the provisions of frequency range 2Hz ~ 200Hz specified in 4.1 of ISO
13355.2016, and the vibration frequency is changed into meeting the frequency
range required by the test. The test frequency range shall be determined
according to the actual needs, and there is no mandatory requirement. Add 5.1c)
"A device used to simulate the fixing of the package during transportation", the
transportation package may be fixed during transportation;
d) CHANGE the requirements for vibration testing under conditions close to the pre-
treatment temperature and humidity in other cases specified in Clause 6 of ISO
13355.2016 INTO "Temperature and humidity conditions during the test" of 6.4
in this Document. If the pre-treatment conditions are not met, then the test shall
be started within 5 min of the test sample leaving the pre-treatment condition.
This is because the general laboratory environment is difficult to meet the
temperature and humidity conditions specified in GB/T4857.2;
e) Add the instructions on test safety in 6.5.4.It facilitates the personal safety of
testers during the test and to protect the safety of test equipment and test
samples;
f) Add the size of the test sample [see Clause 7 k)]; the size and quality are basic
elements for describing the test sample.
This Document made the following editorial modifications.
a) Change the standard name of ISO 13355.2016; in order to coordinate the
standard name of the parts, CHANGE Packaging - Complete, filled transport
packages and unit loads - vertical random vibration test INTO Packaging - Basic
tests for transport packages - Part 23.Vertical random vibration test method.
b) Delete the content of NOTE in Clause 1 of ISO 13355.2016; the provisions of
test sample are made requirements in 6.1 ~ 6.3;
c) Delete the content of NOTE in Clause 3 of ISO 13355.2016, which is duplicated
with the requirements of 6.5.2;
d) Change the name of Clause 4 in ISO 13355.2016 into "Test Equipment";
e) Change the name of 4.2 in ISO 13355.2016 into "Vibration measurement control
system";
f) Delete the acceleration spectral density and slope data in Table A.1 of ISO
13355.2016; delete acceleration spectral density data in Table B.1; delete
acceleration spectral density data in Table B.3.And only retain the frequency and
power spectral density data in each table. The random vibration test of the
transportation package uses the power spectral density instead of the
acceleration spectral density.

3 Terms and Definitions
For the purposes of this Document, the terms and definitions given in GB/T 4122.5 and
the following apply.
The square mean value of the acceleration signal of random vibration at unit frequency.
The square root value of the PSD integral value in the entire frequency range.
4 Test Principle
Under the specified environmental conditions, the test sample is placed on the
vibration bench in a predetermined direction and fixed manner, and within a certain
frequency range, a vertical random vibration test is carried out for a certain period of
time according to the predetermined test intensity.
5 Test Equipment
The vibrating bench shall have a sufficiently large size, sufficient strength, rigidity and
load-bearing capacity. The structure shall be able to ensure that the surface of the
vibration bench remains horizontal when vibrating. And its lowest resonance frequency
shall be higher than the highest test frequency.
The vibration bench can be equipped with the following auxiliary devices.
6 Test Procedure
According to the provisions of GB/T4857.2, select a condition to pre-treat the
temperature and humidity of the test sample.
The test shall be started with a vibration lower than the predetermined PSD 6dB, so
that the control system is balanced at a lower test intensity; and then the test intensity
is increased in one or more steps until it reaches the predetermined value and
completes the random vibration for the predetermined time. The adjustment time of
vibration intensity is not included in the test time.
7 Test Report
The test report shall include the following information.
