1 Scope
This part of ISO 16859 specifies methods for direct and indirect verification of test instruments used for determining Leeb hardness in accordance with ISO 16859-1, and also describes when these two types of verification are to be performed.
The direct verification involves checking that individual instrument performance parameters fall within specified limits, whereas the indirect verification utilizes hardness measurements of reference test blocks, calibrated in accordance with ISO 16859-3, to check the overall performance of the instrument for testing in the direction of gravity. The indirect method can be used on its own for the periodic performance checking in service.

3 General conditions
Before a Leeb hardness testing instrument is verified, the instrument shall be checked to ensure that it is properly set up and operating in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
Especially it should be checked that
a) the impact body is correctly installed in the guide tube,
b) the support ring is mounted tightly to the bottom of the impact device,
c) cables are correctly connected, if applicable, and
d) the settings of the indicating unit are correct.
