Process measurement and control devices - General methods and procedures for evaluating performance -- Part 4: Evaluation report content

This part of IEC 61298 specifies general methods and procedures for conducting tests, and reporting on the functional and performance characteristics of process measurement and control devices. The tests are applicable to any such devices characterized by their own specific input and output variables, and by the specific relationship (transfer function) between the inputs and outputs, and include analogue and digital devices. For devices that require special tests, this standard should be used, together with any product specific standard specifying special tests. This standard specifies the content of the written report on the evaluation or tests on a process measurement or control device, and the results obtained. It specifies the major items which should be included in the evaluation report, but it does not specify the exact format in which the contents should be presented. (This is left to the discretion of the test laboratory which prepares and issues the report.)

Dispositifs de mesure et de commande de processus - Méthodes et procédures générales d'évaluation des performances -- Partie 4: Contenu du rapport d'évaluation

La CEI 61298-4:2008 spécifie les méthodes et procédures générales pour l'exécution des essais portant sur les caractéristiques fonctionnelles et les caractéristiques de performances des dispositifs de mesure et de commande de processus. Ces essais sont applicables à tout dispositif à condition que ce dispositif soit caractérisé par ses propres grandeurs d'entrée et de sortie et par la relation spécifique (fonction de transfert) entre les entrées et les sorties. Ils concernent les dispositifs analogiques et numériques. Pour les dispositifs nécessitant des essais spéciaux, il convient que la présente norme soit utilisée en conjonction avec la norme particulière de produit spécifiant ces essais spéciaux. Elle précise le contenu du rapport écrit qui décrit l'évaluation ou une série d'essais sur un dispositif de mesure ou de commande de processus, et les résultats obtenus. Elle spécifie les principaux articles qu'il convient d'inclure dans le rapport d'évaluation.

Part 4: Evaluation report content


FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 61298-4 has been prepared by subcommittee 65B: Devices and
process analysis, of IEC technical committee 65: Industrial-process measurement, control and
automation.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1995 and constitutes a
technical revision.
This edition is a general revision with respect to the previous edition and does not include any
significant changes (see Introduction).

on the IEC website.
The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged until
the maintenance result date indicated on the IEC web site under "http://webstore.iec.ch" in
the data related to the specific publication. At this date, the publication will be
• reconfirmed,
• withdrawn,
• replaced by a revised edition, or

INTRODUCTION
This standard is not intended as a substitute for existing standards, but is rather intended as a
reference document for any future standards developed within the IEC or other standards
organizations, concerning the evaluation of process instrumentation. Any revision of existing
standards should take this standard into account.
This common standardized basis should be utilized for the preparation of future relevant
standards, as follows:
– any test method or procedure, already treated in this standard, should be specified and
described in the new standard by referring to the corresponding clause of this standard.
Consequently new editions of this standard are revised without any change in numbering
and scope of each clause;
– any particular method or procedure, not covered by this standard, should be developed
and specified in the new standard in accordance with the criteria, as far as they are
applicable, stated in this standard;
– any conceptual or significant deviation from the content of this standard, should be clearly
identified and justified if introduced in a new standard.
