SIST EN 61003-1:2017

Industrial-Process control systems - Instruments with analogue inputs and two- or multi-position outputs - Part 1: Methods of evaluating the performance (IEC 61003-1:2016)

This part of IEC 61003 is applicable to pneumatic and electric industrial-process instruments
or control device using measured values that are continuous signals either a mechanical
(position, force, etc.) or a standard electric signal.
These instruments or process control systems modules may be used as controllers or as
switches for alarm and other similar purposes.
Electronic product safety issues may impact only a few products covered by this document.
Consequently this document does not address such safety issues.
This standard is intended to specify uniform terminologies and testing methods for
performance evaluation of industrial-process instruments or process control systems modules
with analogue measured values and two- or multi-position outputs.
Considerations other than the performances are listed in Clause 10.

Système de commande de processus industriels - Instruments avec entrées analogiques et sorties à deux ou plusieurs positions - Partie 1: Méthodes d’évaluation des performances (IEC 61003-1:2016)

L'IEC 61003-1:2016 est applicable aux dispositifs de commande ou instruments électriques et pneumatiques des processus industriels, utilisant des valeurs mesurées qui sont des signaux continus, c'est-à-dire soit un signal mécanique (position, force, etc.) soit un signal électrique normalisé. Elle a pour objet de spécifier des terminologies et des méthodes d'essais uniformes pour l'évaluation des performances des instruments des processus industriels ou des modules de systèmes de commande de processus avec valeurs mesurées analogiques et sorties à deux ou plusieurs positions. Cette troisième édition annule et remplace la deuxième édition parue en 2004. Cette édition constitue une révision technique. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente:
- utilisation de l'expression "sortie à deux positions" au lieu de "instrument à deux états" (voir en 3.2);
- utilisation du terme "recouvrement" au lieu de "différentiel de commutation" (voir en 3.4);
- utilisation de l'expression "Exigences relatives à l'immunité aux transitoires rapides/en salves" au lieu de "Surtensions transitoires d'alimentation", et révision de la méthode d'essai (voir en 6.2.10);
- suppression des essais du 6.2.12 "Influence en mode commun" et du 6.2.13 "Influence en mode normal (mode série)", issus de la précédente édition;
- utilisation de l'expression "champ électromagnétique" au lieu de "interférence électromagnétique rayonnée", la méthode d'essai restant inchangée (voir en 6.2.16);
- utilisation de l'expression "rigidité diélectrique" au lieu de "essai d'isolation", et révision de la référence (voir en 6.3.4);
- suppression des paragraphes "8.2 Caractéristiques de conception", "10.1 Entretien et ajustement" et "10.2 Réparation" de la précédente édition.

Nadzorni sistemi za industrijske procese - Instrumenti z analognimi vhodi in dvo- ali večpozicijskimi izhodi - 1. del: Postopki za ocenjevanje zmogljivosti (IEC 61003-1:2016)

Ta del standarda IEC 61003 se uporablja za pnevmatske in električne instrumente za industrijske procese ali nadzorne naprave, ki uporabljajo izmerjene vrednosti, ki so neprekinjeni signali, in sicer mehanski (položaj, sila itd.) ali standardni električni signali.
Ti instrumenti ali moduli za nadzorne sisteme za procese se lahko uporabljajo kot alarmni krmilniki ali stikala in za druge podobne namene.
Težave zaradi varnosti elektronskih izdelkov lahko vplivajo na le nekaj izdelkov, ki so zajeti v tem dokumentu. Zato ta dokument ne obravnava teh varnostnih vprašanj. Ta standard določa enotno terminologijo in preskusne metode za ocenjevanje zmogljivosti instrumentov za industrijske procese ali module za nadzorne sisteme za procese z analogno izmerjenimi vrednostmi in dvo- ali večpozicijskimi izhodi. Dejavniki, ki niso povezani z zmogljivostjo, so navedeni v točki 10.

Part 1: Methods for evaluating performance

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 itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
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 61003-1 has been prepared by subcommittee SC 65B:
Measurement and control devices, of IEC technical committee TC 65: Industrial-process
measurement, control and automation.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2004. This edition
constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
edition:
a) use of the term “two-position output” instead of “two-state instrument” (see 3.2);
b) use of the term “differential gap” instead of “switching differential” (see 3.4);
c) use of “fast transient/burst immunity requirements” instead of “power supply transient
overvoltages”, and revision of the test method (see 6.2.10);

d) deletion of 6.2.12 “common mode interference” and 6.2.13 “normal mode interference
(series mode) ”tests of the previous edition;
e) use of the term “electromagnetic field” instead of “radiated electromagnetic interference”,
the test method remained the same (see 6.2.16);
f) use of the term “dielectric strength” instead of “isolation test”, and revision of the reference
(see 6.3.4);
g) deletion of Subclauses “8.2 Design features”, “10.1 Routine maintenance and adjustment”
and “10.2 Repair” of the previous edition.
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting
65B/1040/FDIS 65B/1050/RVD

Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on
voting indicated in the above table.
This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
A list of all parts of the IEC 61003 series, published under the general title Industrial-process
control systems – Instruments with analogue inputs and two or multi-position outputs, can be

INTRODUCTION
The methods of evaluation specified in this part of IEC 61003 are intended for use by
manufacturers to determine the performance of their products and by users, or independent
testing establishments, to verify the manufacturer's performance specifications.
The test conditions in this standard, for example the range of ambient temperatures and
power supply, represent those, which commonly arise in use.
The tests specified in this standard are not necessarily sufficient for instruments specifically
designed for unusually arduous duties. Conversely, a restricted series of tests may be
suitable for instruments designed to perform within a more limited range of conditions.
It will be appreciated that the closest communication should be maintained between the
evaluating body and the manufacturer. Note should be taken of the manufacturer's
specifications for the instrument, when the test program is being decided, and the
manufacturer should be invited to comment on both the test program and the results. His
comments on the results should be included in any report produced by the testing
organization.
