BS EN 60382:1993

What is BS EN 60382 - Analogue pneumatic signal about?  

BS EN 60382 specifies the analogue pneumatic signal used in industrial process measurement and control systems to transmit information between the elements of such systems. 

BS EN 60382 is applicable to: 

• Pneumatic controllers 
• Pneumatic transmitters and information transmission systems 

Note: BS EN 60382 does not apply to analogue pneumatic signals used entirely within an element. 

Who is BS EN 60382 - Analogue pneumatic signal for? 

BS EN 60382 on analogue pneumatic signal for process control systems is useful for: 

• Manufacturers of process control systems 
• Manufacturing plants 
• Machine installers 
• Maintenance personnel 

Why should you use BS EN 60382 - Analogue pneumatic signal?  

The analogue pneumatic signal varies in a continuous manner within its range and is used in industrial process measurement and control systems to transmit information.  

BS EN 60382 helps you to establish: 

• A standard operating pressure range for pneumatic information transmission systems 

• A standard air supply pressure (with limit values) for the operation of pneumatic controllers and transmitters, pneumatic information transmission systems, current-to-pressure transducers, and similar devices 

In conclusion, the guidelines of BS EN 60382 help you to understand the functions of analogue pneumatic signals and enables you to use them effectively to transmit information between the process control systems.
