The exchange of product data between companies, business systems, engineering tools, data systems within companies and, control systems (electrical, measuring and control technology) can run smoothly only when both the information to be exchanged and the use of this information has been clearly defined.
BS EN 61987 series proposes a method for standardization that will help both suppliers and users of measuring equipment to optimize workflows both within their own companies and in their exchanges with other companies. Depending on their role in the process, engineering firms may be considered here to be either users or suppliers.
BS EN 61987-16 provides an operating list of properties (OLOP) for the description of the operating parameters and the collection of requirements for density measuring equipment. BS EN 61987-16 provides a device list of properties (DLOP) for a range of density measuring equipment types describing them. The OLOP and the DLOPs provided correspond to the guidelines specified in IEC 61987-10 and IEC 61987-11.
BS EN 61987-16 on OLOP and DLOP for density measurement is useful for:
Electronic data interchange is a standard format to exchange business information between two organizations electronically instead of using paper documents. The LOPs provided by BS EN 61987-16 are used in electronic data exchange processes performed between any two computer systems. The computer systems can belong to the same company, or they can belong to different companies.
BS EN 61987-16 concerns density measuring equipment. BS EN 61987-16 provides you with an operating list of properties for all types of density transmitters which can be used, for example, as a request for various sorts of quotation.
The DLOPs for the various density transmitter types provided in BS EN 61987-16 can be used in very different ways in the computer systems of equipment manufacturers and suppliers, in computer-aided engineering and similar systems of engineering procurement and construction contractors and other engineering companies and especially different plant maintenance systems of the plant owners.
BS EN 61987-16 helps to enhance your digital transformation journey via a seamless, user-friendly and customer-centric digital experience.
