scope:

This Part 5 of the IEC 62828 standard series establishes specific procedures for testing flow transmitters used in measuring and control systems for industrial process and for machinery control systems. For general test procedures, reference is to be made to Part 1 of the standard, applicable to all types of transmitters. The IEC 62828 Part 5 - together with Part 1 - is the reference standard for testing every type of flow transmitters, including not only for liquids but also for gases and for steam. This standard "industrial flow transmitters" consistently covers all types of flow transmitters used in measuring and control systems for industrial process and for machinery.
