What is BS EN IEC 62832‑3 about?
BS EN IEC 62832‑3 is part three of the multi-series standard that specifies rules of the Digital Factory framework for managing information of a production system throughout its life cycle. BS EN IEC 62832‑3 also defines how information will be added, deleted or changed in the Digital Factory by the various activities during the life cycle of the production system.
These rules include:
- Rules to represent a production system with a digital factory
- Rules to represent a PS asset or a role with a dfasset
- Rules to represent a relationship between PS assets with a dfassetlink
- Rules to represent a relationship between roles with a dfassetlink
- Rules to represent the hierarchy of PS assets in a production system
- Rules to check the compatibility between associated PS assets
Who is BS EN IEC 62832‑3 for?
BS EN IEC 62832‑3 on application of digital factory for life cycle management of production systems is useful for:
- Industrial plants
- Manufacturing units
- Production manager
Why should you use BS EN IEC 62832‑3?
IEC 62832 provides a framework used for establishing and maintaining the digital representations of production systems, including the representation of the elements of the production systems and of the relationships between these elements. The framework is intended also to support the exchange of information about these elements.
The framework aims at reducing the interoperability barriers for exchange of information for the various activities related to production systems. The main advantages of this method are that all information related to a production system is described in a standardized manner, and it can be used and modified through its entire life cycle. The method defined in IEC 62832 is kept as generic as possible in order to enable its use in several industrial sectors.
BS EN IEC 62832‑3 provides a common base for implementation of the DF framework using different technologies (for example different engineering data formats). Proposals for such implementations are provided in Annex A.
BS EN IEC 62832‑3 specifies the rules for using the DF framework.
BS EN IEC 62832‑3 gives guidelines for representation of PS assets and of PS assets relationships using DFassetLink, role-based equipment and physical asset information.
BS EN IEC 62832‑3 shows how concepts of the DF Framework may be mapped onto concepts of IEC 62714 (all parts).
