What is PD IEC TR 62967 – Performance indicators of transducers and transmitters about?
PD IEC TR 62967 is a technical report that improves and simplifies the existing relevant calculation methods and can serve as a good basis on which to create a new calculation-oriented IEC standard.
PD IEC TR 62967 provides guidance on the assurance of reliability data of automation devices. If the source of this data is a calculation, guidance is given on how to specify the methods used for this calculation. If the source is through observations, guidance is given on how to describe these observations and their evaluations. If the source is the outcome of laboratory tests, guidance is given on how to specify these tests and the conditions under which they have been carried out.
PD IEC TR 62967 defines the form to present the data.
Who is PD IEC TR 62967 – Performance indicators of transducers and transmitters for?
PD IEC TR 62967 on methods for calculating the main static performance indicators of transducers and transmitters is useful for:
- Manufacturers of transducers, transmitters and other measurement devices
- Quality control personnel
- Testing and inspection personnel
Why should you use PD IEC TR 62967 – Performance indicators of transducers and transmitters?
A transducer is a measuring device that converts the non-electrical quantity to be measured into corresponding electrical quantity, while a transmitter is a kind of transducer that is required to provide a previously-given linear output.
PD IEC TR 62967 report provides a comprehensive illustration of the methods for calculating the main static performance indicators of transducers, transmitters and similar measuring devices.
In conclusion, PD IEC TR 62967 helps you (manufacturers) to work out your factory-level test standards, users to make rigorous acceptance tests and wise applications, and authorized metrological establishments to verify the measuring device performance indicators of the manufacturers or of the users.
