Programmable controllers - Part 2: Equipment requirements and tests

Specifies requirements and related tests for programmable controllers (PLCs) and their associated peripherals (for example, programming and debugging tools (PADTs), human-machine interfaces (HMIs), etc.) which have as their intended use the control and command of machines and industrial processes. This third edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: DC power port requirements have been moved from Clause 8 to Clause 5, Correction of the tests of Clause 6, Change of EMC requirements in Clause 8, Correction of the tests in Clause 9, New organization of Clause 11.

Speicherprogrammierbare Steuerungen - Teil 2: Betriebsmittelanforderungen und Prüfungen

Automates programmables - Partie 2: Spécifications et essais des équipements

La CEI 61131-2:2007 spécifie les exigences et les essais correspondants des automates programmables (AP) et de leurs périphériques associés (par exemple, outils de programmation et de mise au point (PADT), interfaces homme-machine (HMI), etc.) qui sont prévus pour être utilisés comme dispositifs de contrôle et de commande de machines et de processus industriels. Elle établit les définitions et identifie les principales caractéristiques concernant le choix et l'application des AP et de leurs périphériques associés. Elle spécifie des exigences minimales pour les caractéristiques fonctionnelles, électriques, mécaniques, environnementales et de construction, les conditions de service, la sécurité, la CEM, la programmation utilisateur et les essais applicables aux AP et aux périphériques associés. Cette troisième édition de la CEI 61131-2 annule et remplace la deuxième édition, publiée en 2003, dont elle constitue une révision technique. Cette troisième édition inclut les modifications techniques suivantes: - Correction des essais suivants de l'Article 6 et 9; - Modification des exigences CEM à l'Article 8; - Nouvelle organisation de l'Article 11. La présente version bilingue (2012-05) correspond à la version anglaise monolingue publiée en 2007-07.
