Update on ISO Standards in Condition Monitoring

Key Points

Improvements in condition monitoring are evident through updated ISO standards, boosting industry reliability.
As of March 2025, ISO/TC 108 has 201 standards, including 28 for condition monitoring, reflecting ongoing efforts.
Additional revisions and developments of 12 standards in condition monitoring are actively underway, enhancing guidelines.
Current advancements support better practices in vibration monitoring and related techniques, promising robust applications.

Abstract

This paper presents an update on further progress in International Standards on Condition Monitoring (CM), and International Standards related to CM techniques including: vibration monitoring (VM), infra-red thermography (IRT), acoustic emission (AE), ultrasonics (UT), tribology and lubrication (LUB). It also describes the progress on developing a new general condition monitoring part of the ISO training and certification standards. Condition Monitoring Standards are within the scope of ISO Technical Committee 108 – Mechanical vibration, shock and condition monitoring (ISO/TC 108). ISO/TC 108 has a portfolio of 201 ISO Standards including 28 relating to condition monitoring and 59 relating to vibration of machines, vehicles and structures. (at March 2025) Since 2022, 16 documents have been issued in ISO/TC 108's portfolio and 29 are under development. Of these, 12 CM Standards are currently undergoing revision or development. This paper gives the latest status of a selection of these documents.
