IEC 60770-3:2014 ED2

Transmitters for use in industrial-process control systems - Part 3: Methods for performance evaluation of intelligent transmitters

Scope

IEC 60770-3:2014 specifies methods for:
- assessment of the functionality of intelligent transmitters;
- testing the operational behaviour, as well as the static and dynamic performance of an intelligent transmitter and methodologies for determining the reliability and diagnostic features used to detect malfunctions;
- determining the communication capabilities of the intelligent transmitters in a communication network. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2006 and constitutes a technical revision. It includes the following changes:
- Introduction.
- Terms and definitions: all definitions already present in IEC 60050 and in IEC 61298 have been deleted.
- All parts: added concept of wireless transmitters.
