Industrial-process measurement and control. Data structures and elements in process equipment catalogues. List of Properties (LOP) of measuring equipment for electronic data exchange. Generic structures | Status: Superseded, Withdrawn

1 Scope This part of IEC 61987 provides

• • a characterisation of industrial process measuring equipment (device type dictionary) for integration in the Component Data Dictionary (CDD), and
• • generic structures for Operating Lists of Properties (OLOPs) and Device Lists of Properties (DLOPs) of measuring equipment in conformance with IEC 61987‑10.

The generic structures for the OLOPs and DLOPs 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 series (for example IEC 61987‑12, flow transmitters). Similarly, equipment properties are not dealt with in this part of the series For instance, the OLOPs and DLOPs for flow transmitters with blocks and properties will be found in future in IEC 61987‑12.
