BS EN 61987-11:2017

This standard BS EN 61987-11:2017 Industrial-process measurement and control. Data structures and elements in process equipment catalogues is classified in these ICS categories:

• 25.040.40 Industrial process measurement and control
• 35.100.20 Data link layer

This part of IEC 61987 provides:

• a characterisation of industrial process measuring equipment (device type dictionary) for integration in the Common Data Dictionary (CDD), and

• generic structures for operating lists of properties (OLOP) and device lists of properties (DLOP) of measuring equipment in conformance with IEC 61987-10.

The generic structures for the OLOP and DLOP contain the most important blocks for process measuring equipment. Blocks pertaining to a specific equipment type will be described in the corresponding part of the IEC 61987 standard series. Similarly, equipment properties are not part of IEC 61987-11. For instance, the OLOP and DLOP for flow transmitters with blocks and properties are to be found in IEC 61987-12.
