Meant as a guide for assisting in the development of a specification for analysers and associated support systems for enq uiry purposes and the subsequent assessment of the bids presented by the prospective vendors. Not intended as a design specification in its own right, thus, design guidance has been deliberately omitted.

Is intended as a guide to assist in the development of a specification for analysers and their associated support systems for enquiry purposes and the subsequent assessment of the bids presented by the prospective vendors. Is not intended as a design specification. Should be read in conjunction with other standards, e.g. NAMUR, EEMUA, ISA. IEC/TR61832 will supplement design guidance. Is intended to provide a recommended procedure for both the enquiry documentation and the response from the analyser vendor.
