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 which 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 61987-24-1 provides an Operating Lists of Properties (OLOPs) for the description of the operating parameters and the collection of requirements for valve/actuator accessories, that can be used for every valve/actuator accessory. BS EN 61987-24-1 provides a Device Lists of Properties (DLOPs) for positioners and I/P converters.
BS EN 61987 series covers OLOP and DLOP properties that may be used in an inquiry, or a proposal and detailed properties required for integration of the equipment in computer systems for other tasks. The OLOP and the DLOPs provided correspond to the guidelines specified in IEC 61987-10, IEC 61987-11, and IEC 61987-21.
BS EN 61987-24-1 on positioners and I/P converters for electronic data exchange is useful for:
Electronic data interchange is a standard format to exchange business information between two organizations electronically instead of using paper documents. The list of properties provided by BS EN 61987-24-1 are used in electronic data exchange processes performed between any two computer systems.
BS EN 61987-24-1 concerns positioners and I/P converters. BS EN 61987-24-1 provides you with an operating list of properties for valve/actuator accessories which can be used, for example, as a request for quotation for various purposes.
The DLOPs for the positioners and I/P converters provided in BS EN 61987-24-1 is used in very different ways in the computer systems of equipment manufacturers and suppliers, in Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) and similar systems of Engineering Procurement and Construction (EPC) contractors and other engineering companies and especially in the various plant maintenance systems of plant owners.
BS EN 61987-24-1 helps to enhance your digital transformation journey via a seamless, user-friendly and customer-centric digital experience.
