UNE-EN IEC 62828-3:2018

Part 3 of the IEC 62828 standard series establishes specific procedures for testing

temperature transmitters used in measuring and control systems for industrial process and for

machinery control systems.

When the process measurement transmitter features the temperature transmitter separated

from the sensing element (RTD or TC), the standard applies only to the temperature

transmitter without the sensing element. In case of device where the sensing element is fully

integrated with the temperature transmitter, the standard applies to the complete device.

For general test procedures, reference is to be made to Part 1 of the standard, which is

applicable to all types of process measurement transmitters (PMT).

Note: in the industrial and process applications, to indicate the process measurement transmitters it is common

also to use the terms industrial transmitters , or process transmitters .

The sensing element itself (e.g., PRT, RTD, TC, etc.) as well as radiation thermometers are

excluded from the scope of this standard.
