This document covers the type testing of valve stem seals using a test fixture that is designed and fully defined to be representative of the performance of a valve using similar geometry. This document is applicable to stem seals for multi-turn, linear and quarter turn valves. It is intended to provide comparative type test results confirming the performance of seal manufacturers’ stem seal designs. This document is not intended to replace type testing of complete valve assemblies or valve production testing. Compliance with this document is not intended to be a mandatory qualification test to be completed for a stem seal design prior to testing a valve to the requirements of ISO 15848-1.

This document specifies general conditions, defines terms, gives practical guidelines, and establishes the basic principles of the component tests used in the other parts of the ISO 11452 series for determining the immunity of electronic components of passenger cars and commercial vehicles to electrical disturbances from narrowband radiated electromagnetic energy, regardless of the vehicle propulsion system (e.g. spark-ignition engine, diesel engine, electric motor). The electromagnetic disturbances considered are limited to continuous narrowband electromagnetic fields. A wide frequency range (d.c. and 15 Hz to 18 GHz) is allowed for the immunity testing of the components in the ISO 11452 series.

This document specifies the characteristics of prevailing torque (all metal) hexagon high nuts, in steel and stainless steel, with metric fine pitch thread 8 mm to 39 mm, and with product grades A and B. NOTE These nuts are designed with an overall height hmin = mmin (as specified in ISO 898-2 and ISO 8674 for style 2) plus the prevailing torque feature. hmax has been established in function of hmin; therefore, the tolerance (hmax – hmin) does not follow the ISO code system for tolerances (IT system). The wrenching height mw,min corresponds to the values specified for style 1. If in certain cases other specifications are requested, property classes and stainless steel grades can be selected from ISO 898-2 or ISO 3506-2.

This document describes the introduction of radiated immunity testing for the components and vehicles equipped with V2X communications.

In addition, test hints are described to provide information on radiated immunity for V2X. Technical specifications are not within the scope of this document.

This document covers the significant hazards listed in Clause 4 and applies to ancillary devices (e.g. for workpieces, tools, workpiece holding devices and handling devices), which are integral to the machine.
This document also applies to machines which are integrated into an automatic production line or grinding cell in as much as the hazards and risks arising are comparable to those of machines working separately.
This document also includes in Clause 7 a minimum list of safety-relevant information which the manufacturer has to provide to the user. See also ISO 12100:2010, Figure 2, which illustrates the interaction of the manufacturer’s and user’s responsibility for the operational safety.
The user's responsibility to identify specific hazards (e.g. fire and explosion) and reduce the associated risks can be critical (e.g. whether the central extraction system is working correctly).
Where additional metalworking processes (e.g. milling, turning, laser processing) are involved, this document can be taken as a basis for safety requirements. Specific information on hazards arising from other metalworking processes are covered by other International Standards.
This document applies to machines that are manufactured after the date of issue of this document.
This document does not apply to stationary honing, polishing and belt grinding machines. This document does not apply to transportable motor-operated electric tools in accordance with IEC 61029-2-4 and IEC 61029-2-10.

IEC 61800-9-2:2023 specifies energy efficiency indicators of power electronics (complete drive modules (CDM), input or output sub drive modules (SDM), power drive systems (PDS) and motor starters, all used for motor driven equipment.
This document is a group energy efficiency publication according to IEC Guide 119 and specifies the methodology for the determination of losses of the complete drive module (CDM), the sub drive module (SDM), the power drive system (PDS) and the motor system.

This document provides a common approach and guidance to those undertaking assessment of the major safety hazards as part of the planning, design, and operation of LNG facilities onshore and at shoreline using risk-based methods and standards, to enable a safe design and operation of LNG facilities. The environmental risks associated with an LNG release are not addressed in this document.
This document is applicable both to export and import terminals but can be applicable to other facilities such as satellite and peak shaving plants.
This document is applicable to all facilities inside the perimeter of the terminal and all hazardous materials including LNG and associated products: LPG, pressurized natural gas, odorizers, and other flammable or hazardous products handled within the terminal.
The navigation risks and LNG tanker intrinsic operation risks are recognised, but they are not in the scope of this document. Hazards arising from interfaces between port and facility and ship are addressed and requirements are normally given by port authorities. It is assumed that LNG carriers are designed according to the IGC code, and that LNG fuelled vessels receiving bunker fuel are designed according to IGF code.
Border between port operation and LNG facility is when the ship/shore link (SSL) is established.
This document is not intended to specify acceptable levels of risk; however, examples of tolerable levels of risk are referenced.
See IEC 31010 and ISO 17776 with regard to general risk assessment methods, while this document focuses on the specific needs scenarios and practices within the LNG industry.

This document specifies the data structure and content of an interface that permits communication between position-providing device(s) and position-using device(s) enabling the position-using device(s) to obtain and unambiguously interpret position information and determine, based on a measure of the degree of reliability, whether the resulting position information meets the requirements of the intended use.
A standardized interface for positioning allows the integration of reliable position information obtained from non-specific positioning technologies and is useful in various location-focused information applications, such as surveying, navigation, intelligent transportation systems (ITS) and location-based services (LBS).
