# Council Regulation (EC) No 428/2009 of 5 May 2009 setting up a Community regime for the control of exports, transfer, brokering and transit of dual-use items (Recast), Division [2B116]: Vibration test systems, equipment and components therefor, as follows:

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

a..‘Vibration test systems incorporating a digital controller’ and employing feedback or closed loop techniques, capable of vibrating a system at an acceleration equal to or greater than 10 g rms between 20 Hz and 2 kHz while imparting forces equal to or greater than 50 kN, measured ‘bare table’;
Technical note:
In Item 2B116.a., 'vibration test systems incorporating a digital controller' are those systems, the functions of which are, partly or entirely, automatically controlled by stored and digitally coded electrical signals.
b..Digital controllers, combined with specially designed vibration test software, with a ‘real-time control bandwidth’ greater than 5 kHz designed for use with vibration test systems specified in 2B116.a.;
Technical Note:
In 2B116.b., ‘real-time control bandwidth’ means the maximum rate at which a controller can execute complete cycles of sampling, processing data and transmitting control signals.
c..Vibration thrusters (shaker units), with or without associated amplifiers, capable of imparting a force equal to or greater than 50 kN, measured ‘bare table’, and usable in vibration test systems specified in 2B116.a.;
d..Test piece support structures and electronic units designed to combine multiple shaker units in a system capable of providing an effective combined force equal to or greater than 50 kN, measured ‘bare table’, and usable in vibration systems specified in 2B116.a.
Technical Note:
In 2B116, ‘bare table’ means a flat table, or surface, with no fixture or fittings.
