ISO 16063-16:2014规定了使用地球引力对加速计进行初级校准时使用的仪器和程序。它适用于直流（零赫兹频率）响应的直线加速度计，如应变计、压阻式、可变电容式和伺服加速度计类型。 ISO 16063-16:2014适用于灵敏度大小的校准，参考0 Hz时因局部引力而产生的加速度。 通过使用适当的校准设备，ISO 16063-16:2014可用于校准灵敏度的大小，参考0 Hz下局部重力引起的加速度分数部分。所用仪器的规范包含环境条件的要求，以及所用仪器的具体要求。

ISO 16063-16:2014 specifies the instrumentation and procedure to be used for performing primary calibration of accelerometers using Earth's gravitation. It is applicable to rectilinear accelerometers with DC (zero hertz frequency) response, such as straingauge, piezoresistive, variable capacitance, and servo accelerometer types. ISO 16063-16:2014 is applicable to the calibration of the magnitude of the sensitivity, referenced to the acceleration due to the local gravitation at 0 Hz. With the use of appropriate calibration equipment, ISO 16063-16:2014 can be applied to the calibration of the magnitude of the sensitivity, referenced to fractional parts of the acceleration due to the local gravitation at 0 Hz. The specification of the instrumentation used contains requirements on environmental conditions, as well as specific requirements for the apparatus to be used.
