Forward/Authority
This edition of ANSI/AMCA Standard 204 was adopted by the membership of the
Air Movement and Control Association International, Inc., on 03 August 2003. This
standard addresses the need of both the users and manufacturers of fans for tech-
nically accurate but uncomplicated information of the subjects of fan balance pre-
cision and vibration levels. The data presented herein is referenced to applicable
national and international standards and is in harmony with these standards,
including ISO 14694:2003, Industrial fans - Specification for balance quality and
vibration levels. Information from the reference standards is supplemented by
years of experience on the part of committee members and from other contribu-
tors in the industry.

Generally, there is no simple relationship between broad-band acceleration, velocity and displacement;
nor is there one between peak (pk), peak-to-peak (pk-pk), root-mean-square (rms) and average values
of vibration. However, where the vibration is totally or predominantly at a single frequency (e.g., due to
residual unbalance) or it is measured “Filter-In” then the following relationships exist, independent of the

D.1 Instruments
Instruments and balancing machines used shall meet the requirements of the task and be within current
calibration. See ANSI S2.19-1989, Section 8. The calibration period for an instrument shall be that rec-
ommended by the instrument manufacturer. Instruments shall be in good condition and suitable for the
intended function for the complete duration of the test. A portable instrument shall not require a battery
change during a test.
Personnel operating instruments shall be familiar with the instruments and shall possess enough experi-
ence to detect a possible malfunction or degradation of instrument performance. When an instrument
requires corrective measures or calibration, it shall be removed from service until corrective action is
taken.
D.2 Calibration
All instruments shall have a calibration against a stated standard. The complexity of the calibration may
vary from a physical inspection to a complete calibration traceable to the National Institute of Standards
and Technology. Use of a calibrated weight to determine residual unbalance such as described in ANSI
S2.19-1989, Section 8.3 is one accepted method of calibrating instrumentation.
