Understanding Classification Standards for Industrial Automation Equipment and Instruments

Industrial automation equipment and instruments are indispensable components in manufacturing, production and process industries. With the advancement of technology, automation systems have become more complex, advanced, and integrated. To ensure that all automation systems are operating safely and efficiently, classification standards have been established for their design, application, installation, and operation. These standards provide a common language for manufacturers, system integrators, and end-users to communicate and understand the specifications and requirements of different automation components.

 

The classification standards for industrial automation equipment and instruments vary depending on the type of system, the industry, and the region. The following are some of the most widely used classification standards:

 

IEC 61131-3IEC 61131-3 is an international standard for programmable logic controllers (PLCs). It defines the programming languages, syntax, and semantics for PLCs used for industrial control systems. The standard provides a framework for developing, testing, and maintaining PLC programs.

 

ISA S5.1ISA S5.1 is a North American standard that defines the function and symbols for process instrumentation and control. The standard provides a common language for manufacturers, system integrators, and end-users to identify, configure, and install different instruments in a process control system.

 

ISO 13584ISO 13584 is an international standard that defines the data structure for product design and manufacturing. The standard aims to improve the exchange and sharing of product data among different software systems and applications. ISO 13584 provides a framework for the organization, storage, retrieval, and exchange of industrial product data.

 

These are just some examples of the many classification standards that exist for industrial automation equipment and instruments. To ensure that your automation systems comply with these standards, it is essential to collect a complete set of standards that are applicable to your industry and region.

 

Collecting the complete set of classification standards for industrial automation equipment and instruments involves several steps:

 

Step 1: Identify the Applicable StandardsThe first step is to identify the classification standards that are relevant to your industry and region. You can do this by consulting with industry associations, regulatory bodies, and standards organizations. Once you have identified the applicable standards, you need to obtain a copy of each standard.

 

Step 2: Review and Understand the StandardsThe next step is to review and understand each standard. This involves reading the standard in detail, and clarifying any doubts or questions that you may have. You may also need to consult with experts or professionals in your industry to understand the nuances of the standards.

 

Step 3: Implement the StandardsThe final step is to implement the standards in your automation systems. This involves designing, installing, and operating your systems in accordance with the requirements and specifications of the standards. You may need to modify your existing systems or processes to ensure compliance with the standards.

 

Collecting and implementing the complete set of classification standards for industrial automation equipment and instruments is a critical step in ensuring the safety, reliability, and efficiency of your automation systems. It also helps you to meet regulatory requirements, reduce risks and liability, and enhance your reputation as a responsible and trustworthy manufacturer or operator.

There are many kinds of industrial automation instruments. From the process of information acquisition, transmission, reflection and processing, industrial automation instruments are divided into five categories: detection instruments, display instruments, controller instruments, actuators, and centralized detection and control devices.

One thing all industrial equipment instrumentation has in common is the need for a quality electronic equipment enclosure. There are many metal categories for the material of the housing, such as: aluminum, plastic, iron, steel, sheet metal and so on. Aluminum is the best choice for electronic equipment enclosures, efficient heat dissipation, neat appearance, corrosion resistance, and durability. It has become the best choice for many customers. Yongucase is a professional manufacturer of aluminum enclosure for electronic equipment with 18 years of experience, specializing in providing enclosure solutions for various types of instruments.

Detection instrument is an instrument or equipment used to detect, measure, observe and calculate various physical quantities, material components, physical parameters, etc. Vacuum leak detectors, pressure gauges, length measuring instruments, microscopes, multipliers, etc. are all instruments.

In a broad sense, instruments and meters can also have functions such as automatic control, alarm, signal transmission and data processing, such as pneumatic adjustment instruments used in automatic control of industrial production processes, electric adjustment instruments, and distributed instrument control systems. Instrumentation.

1. Mainly include measuring instruments, automobile instruments, tractor instruments, marine instruments, aviation instruments, navigation instruments, driving instruments, radio test instruments, carrier microwave test instruments, geological exploration test instruments, building materials test instruments, seismic test instruments, geodetic surveying and mapping Instruments, hydrological instruments, timing instruments, agricultural testing instruments, commercial testing instruments, teaching instruments, medical instruments, environmental protection instruments, etc. These instruments are widely used in our small waterproof boxes

2. Instruments and meters belonging to machinery industry products include industrial automation instruments, electrical instruments and meters, optical instruments, analytical instruments, laboratory instruments and devices, material testing machines, meteorological instruments, film machinery, photographic machinery, photocopying microform machinery, instruments Instrument components, instrumentation materials, instrumentation process equipment and other thirteen categories.Large instrumentation is suitable for our  rackmount chassis, the size can be customized

3. Various types of instruments and meters can be further divided into several sub-categories or sub-categories according to different characteristics, such as functions, detection and control objects, structures, and principles. For example, industrial automation instruments can be divided into detection instruments, loop display instruments, adjustment instruments and actuators according to their functions;

4. Among them, the testing instruments are divided into temperature measuring instruments, pressure measuring instruments, flow measuring instruments, level measuring instruments and mechanical quantity measuring instruments according to the measured physical quantity; temperature measuring instruments are divided into contact temperature measuring instruments and Non-contact temperature measuring instrument; contact temperature measuring instrument can be divided into thermoelectric type, expansion type, resistance type, etc. 

5. Other classification methods: The classification methods of other types of instruments are generally similar, mainly related to the development process, usage habits and classification of related products. There is no unified standard for the classification of instruments and meters, and there is a similar situation in the naming of instruments and meters. 

6. In practical work, we often divide instruments into two categories: automated instruments and portable instruments. Automated instruments refer to instruments that need to be fixed on the site, also known as field-installed instruments or dial-mounted instruments. This type of instrument needs to be used in conjunction with other equipment to complete one or several functions; portable instruments are used alone, sometimes called detection instruments, generally divided into desktop and handheld. We provide; 19inch server chassis、desktop enclosur、/EMI/EMC shielding enclosures, industrial equipment enclosures, medical enclosures, portable enclosures, battery enclosures, power amplifier enclosures, etc.

Yongucase can do all the instrumentation enclosures you need! The shape can be designed according to the customer's pcb ideal case, open hole, anodized aluminum case.
