All such standards are developed by a con-sensus sta
10、ndards process managed by the Societys Codes and Standards Committee (CSC). The consensus process includes balloting by a balanced standards committee made up of Society members and nonmembers, balloting by the membership of the Society as a whole, and balloting by the public.

39、motions shall be monitored by measuring the acceleration of the sensing means.Pipe-mounted devices shall be mounted on pipe and shall be mounted within 6 inches (15 cm) of either the surface of the table or a rigid object rigidly fastened to the table. rigidity of mounting may be demonstrated by res
40、onance search testing as described in ANSI/IEEE 344.The device shall be connected to a pneumatic system using inlet and outlet connectors that will not interfere with the motion of the platform. This pneu-matic system shall be capable of being monitored to determine whether the device under test has
41、 remained in a closed position. At the discretion of the testing agency, alternate means of determining the status of the device may be used, provided such means are objective and measurable.The device under test shall be positioned at 20 degrees from vertical relative to the specified position in t
42、he manufacturers installation instructions with the sensing means in the manufac-turers specified operating position. The device shall be rotated about its vertical axis to correspond to the least favorable orientation of the device, with respect to the direction of acceleration of the table. At the
43、 discretion of the testing agency, additional tests may be conducted at other orientations about the vertical axis.The table shall be adjusted to provide a horizontal oscillation at a period specified in Section 3.4.1. The acceleration levels shall be increased to the maximum acceleration level for
44、a selected oscillating period as specified in Section 3.4.1. The oscillations shall be maintained at this level for 20 seconds.If the shutoff means is open following this test, the device will be considered as not meeting the require-ments of this standard.3.5 reSponSe to SeiSMic diSturbanceSThe ran
