Industrial-process measurement, control and automation - Digital factory framework - Part 1: General principles (IEC 62832-1:2020)

This part of IEC 62832 defines the general principles of the Digital Factory framework (DF
framework), which is a set of model elements (DF reference model) and rules for modelling
production systems.
This DF framework defines:
• a model of production system assets;
• a model of relationships between different production system assets;
• the flow of information about production system assets.
The DF framework does not cover representation of building construction, input resources (such
as raw production material, assembly parts), consumables, work pieces in process, nor end
products.
It applies to the three types of production processes (continuous control, batch control and
discrete control) in any industrial sector (for example aeronautic industries, automotive,
chemicals, wood).
NOTE This document does not provide an application scenario for descriptions based on ISO 15926 (all parts),
because ISO 15926 (all parts) uses a different methodology for describing production systems.
The representation of a production system according to this document is managed throughout
all phases of the production system life cycle (for example design, construction, operation or
maintenance). The requirements and specification of software tools supporting the DF
framework are out of scope of this document.

Mesure, commande et automation dans les processus industriels - Cadre de l'usine numérique (digital factory) - Partie 1: Principes généraux (IEC 62832-1:2020)

L'IEC 62832-1:2020 définit les principes généraux du cadre de l’usine numérique (Digital Factory) (cadre DF), lequel est un ensemble d'éléments de modèles (modèle de référence DF) et de règles de modélisation des systèmes de production.
Ce cadre DF définit:
• un modèle d’actif du système de production;
• un modèle de relations entre les différents actifs du système de production;
• le flux d'informations relatives aux actifs du système de production.
Le cadre DF ne couvre pas la représentation des constructions immobilières, des ressources d'entrée (les matières premières, les pièces d'assemblage, par exemple), des consommables, des pièces de fabrication ni des produits finis.
Il s'applique aux trois types de processus de production (le contrôle continu, le contrôle par lots et le contrôle discret) dans tous les secteurs industriels (l'industrie aéronautique, le secteur automobile, les produits chimiques, le bois, par exemple).

INDUSTRIAL-PROCESS MEASUREMENT, CONTROL
AND AUTOMATION – DIGITAL FACTORY FRAMEWORK –

Part 1: General principles

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 62832-1 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 65:
Industrial-process measurement, control and automation.
This first edition cancels and replaces the first edition of IEC TS 62832-1 published in 2016.
This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
Technical Specification:
• correction of terms and definition of additional terms (Clause 3);
• correction of description of header;
• moved UML diagram to IEC 62832-2.

INTRODUCTION
0.1 Market demand and situation
High performance, flexible dynamic processes, and agile machines and production systems are
essential to meet the demands for quality, delivery and cost of the products. This situation
results in an increased complexity of the plant life cycle. In addition, all existing information of
a product or a production system is described and modified through the whole life cycle of a
product or of a production system, for example during the planning, development process, and
operation. This situation spurs the enterprise to exchange product data and production system
data in electronic form.
However, each enterprise and each department inside the enterprise describe their products
and production systems according to their own data management schemes, often using different
terms, structures, and media.
EXAMPLE Examples for data management schemes are paper-based, databases, disks, e-catalogues, and cloud.
Therefore, no seamless information exchange between all the actors involved in the life cycles
of both products and production systems can be found.
Efficient exchange of data between and within enterprises can only be performed if syntax
(format) and semantics (meaning) of the information has been defined in a unanimous and
shared manner.
0.2 History of standardization in this area
Earlier work on electronic product data started with the initial objective to replace paper data
sheets with an electronic description of electronic components used in products, and to use it
in software tools for electronic wiring and assembly (for example, when designing electronic
boards).
Additionally, concepts were developed for profiling of devices used in production systems, in
order to describe parameters and behavioural aspects to facilitate integration and reduce
engineering costs, providing guides for standards developers.
NOTE 1 See Device Profile Guideline (IEC TR 62390).
IEC 61987-10 made an important step toward this objective by defining fundamentals that aim
at describing devices used in production systems by creating lists of properties (LOPs). The
properties themselves are compiled into blocks that describe given features of a device. Further
parts of IEC 61987 and other related standards (e.g. IEC 62683 (all parts)) define reference
LOPs for electronic/electric components and materials used in electro-technical equipment and
systems, such as equipment for measuring flows, pressures, temperatures, levels and densities.
NOTE 2 Although the title of IEC 62683 is "Low-voltage switchgear and controlgear – Product data and properties
for information exchange", the intent of IEC 62832 is to use the information exchange for interoperability in describing
devices that are used in production systems.
IEC 61360-1, IEC 61360-2 and ISO 13584-42 specify the principles to be used for defining
characterization classes of parts and their properties. As a result, a database was developed,
also named IEC Common Data Dictionary (IEC CDD), which contains the reference collection
of classes and associated properties. ISO 22745 (all parts) specifies open technical dictionaries
(OTDs) and their application to master data. ISO/IEC Guide 77 provides recommendations for
the description of products and their properties for the creation of these classes, catalogues
and reference dictionaries.
NOTE 3 ISO/IEC Guide 77 uses the term "product". It is taken to include devices, processes, systems, installations,
etc.

SIST EN IEC 62832-1:2021
IEC 62832-1:2020 © IEC 2020 – 7 –
ISO 15704 specifies requirements of enterprise reference architectures and methodologies for
supporting the applications in terms of the interoperability, the integration, and the architectures
of the applications throughout the life cycle and supply chain aspects of the systems.
A number of efforts have addressed the development of business and manufacturing enterprise
models to aid in understanding of different aspects of the enterprise to realize improvements in
enterprise operations. Additionally, models for enterprise and control systems have been
developed to support the production operations, but gaps remain in development of models to
bridge from the manufacturing system design environments to the manufacturing operation
environments, in terms of sharing information of the process, equipment, and devices.
NOTE 4 IEC 62264 (all parts) defines models of functions in the manufacturing and control domains and information
exchanged with the enterprise domain.
0.3 Purpose and benefits of IEC 62832 (all parts)
While the standards mentioned above provide a method for describing properties of a given
device, IEC 62832 (all parts) extends this method by defining a reference model for the
representation of production systems, which include the devices.
In order to manage a production system effectively throughout its life cycle, it is very important
to have its digital representation and to maintain the contents appropriately in response to its
evolution in its life cycle. Activities related to the production system will access, update, and
use the contents of digital representation in order to support the whole life cycle of the
production system. This digital representation provides a consistent information interchange
between all processes and partners involved and makes related information understandable,
reusable and changeable through the entire production system life cycle.
Dictionaries and models can help to establish such digital representation by providing
descriptions of elements, such as equipment and devices, of the production system. However,
additional information is needed in order to achieve the intended digital representation of
production systems, such as descriptions of relationship between the elements.
IEC 62832 (all parts) provides a framework for establishing and maintaining the digital
representations of production systems, including the elements, relationships between these
elements and the exchange of information about these elements.
The framework aims at reducing the interoperability barriers for exchange of information for the
various activities related to production systems. The main advantages of this method are that
all information related to a production system is described in a standardized manner, and it can
be used and modified through its entire life cycle.
The method defined in IEC 62832 (all parts) is kept as generic as possible in order to enable
its use in several industrial sectors.
NOTE Enterprise modelling concepts are described in standards referenced in the Bibliography (for example
ISO 15704, ISO 11354-1).
0.4 Contents of IEC 62832 (all parts)
IEC 62832 (all parts) consists of multiple parts which provide:
• general introduction to the model and principles of the Digital Factory framework (DF
framework) (IEC 62832-1);
• detailed data model for all the model elements of the DF framework (IEC 62832-2);
• description of how the DF framework is used to manage the life cycle of a production system
(IEC 62832-3).

INDUSTRIAL-PROCESS MEASUREMENT, CONTROL
AND AUTOMATION – DIGITAL FACTORY FRAMEWORK –

Part 1: General principles


1 Scope
This part of IEC 62832 defines the general principles of the Digital Factory framework (DF
framework), which is a set of model elements (DF reference model) and rules for modelling
production systems.
This DF framework defines:
• a model of production system assets;
• a model of relationships between different production system assets;
• the flow of information about production system assets.
The DF framework does not cover representation of building construction, input resources (such
as raw production material, assembly parts), consumables, work pieces in process, nor end
products.
It applies to the three types of production processes (continuous control, batch control and
discrete control) in any industrial sector (for example aeronautic industries, automotive,
chemicals, wood).
NOTE This document does not provide an application scenario for descriptions based on ISO 15926 (all parts),
because ISO 15926 (all parts) uses a different methodology for describing production systems.
The representation of a production system according to this document is managed throughout
all phases of the production system life cycle (for example design, construction, operation or
maintenance). The requirements and specification of software tools supporting the DF
framework are out of scope of this document.

9 FOREWORD
10 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
11 all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
12 co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
13 in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
14 Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their
15 preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
16 may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
17 with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
18 Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
19 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
20 consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
21 interested IEC National Committees.
22 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
23 Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
24 Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
25 misinterpretation by any end user.
26 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
27 transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
28 any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
29 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
30 assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
31 services carried out by independent certification bodies.
32 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
33 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
34 members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
35 other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
36 expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications.
37 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
38 indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
39 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent
40 rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
41 International Standard IEC 62832-1 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 65:
42 Industrial-process measurement, control and automation.
43 This first edition cancels and replaces the first edition of IEC TS 62832-1 published in 2016.
44 This edition constitutes a technical revision.
45 This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
46 Technical Specification:
47 • correction of terms and definition of additional terms (clause 3);
48 • correction of description of header;
49 • moved UML diagram to IEC 62832-2.

73 INTRODUCTION
74 0.1 Market demand and situation
75 High performance, flexible dynamic processes, and agile machines and production systems are
76 essential to meet the demands for quality, delivery and cost of the products. This results in an
77 increased complexity of the plant life cycle. In addition, all existing information of a product or
78 a production system is described and modified through the whole life cycle of a product or
79 production system, for example during the planning, development process, and operation. This
80 situation spurs the enterprise to exchange product and production system data in electronic
81 form.
82 However, each enterprise and each department inside the enterprise describes their products
83 and production systems according to their own data management schemes, often using different
84 terms, structures, and media.
85 EXAMPLE Examples for data management schemes are paper-based, databases, disks, e-catalogues, cloud.
86 Therefore, no seamless information exchange can be found between all the actors involved in
87 the life cycles of both products and production systems.
88 Efficient exchange of data between and within enterprises can only be performed if syntax
89 (format) and semantics (meaning) of the information has been defined in a unanimous and
90 shared manner.
91 0.2 History of standardization in this area
92 Earlier work started with the initial objective to replace paper data sheets with an electronic
93 description of electronic components used in products, and to use it in software tools for
94 electronic wiring and assembly (for example, when designing electronic boards).
95 Additionally, concepts were developed for profiling of devices used in production systems, in
96 order to describe parameters and behavioural aspects to facilitate integration and reduce
97 engineering costs, providing guides for standards developers.
98 NOTE 1 See Device Profile Guideline (IEC TR 62390).
99 IEC 61987-10 made an important step toward this objective by defining fundamentals that aim
100 at describing devices used in production systems by creating lists of properties (LOPs). The
101 properties themselves are compiled into blocks that describe given features of a device. Further
102 parts of IEC 61987 and other related standards (e.g. IEC 62683) define reference LOPs for
103 electronic/electric components and materials used in electro-technical equipment and systems,
104 such as equipment for measuring flows, pressures, temperatures, levels and densities.
105 NOTE 2 Although the title of IEC 62683 is “Low-voltage switchgear and controlgear – Product data and properties
106 for information exchange”, the intent of IEC 62832 is to use the information exchange for interoperability in describing
107 devices that are used in production systems.
108 IEC 61360-1, IEC 61360-2 and ISO 13584-42 specify the principles to be used for defining
109 characterization classes of parts and their properties. As a result, a database was developed,
110 also named IEC Common Data Dictionary (IEC CDD), which contains the reference collection
111 of classes and associated properties. ISO 22745 specifies open technical dictionaries (OTDs)
112 and their application to master data. ISO/IEC Guide 77 provides recommendations for the
113 description of products and their properties for the creation of these classes, catalogues and
114 reference dictionaries.
115 NOTE 3 ISO/IEC Guide 77 uses the term “product”. It is taken to include devices, processes, systems, installations,
116 etc.

117 ISO 15704 specifies requirements of enterprise reference architectures and methodologies for
118 supporting the applications in terms of the interoperability, the integration, and the architectures
119 of the applications throughout the life cycle and supply chain aspects of the systems.
120 A number of efforts have addressed the development of business and manufacturing enterprise
121 models to aid in understanding of different aspects of the enterprise to realize improvements in
122 enterprise operations. Additionally, models for enterprise and control systems have been
123 developed to support the production operations, but gaps remain in development of models to
124 bridge from the manufacturing system design environments to the manufacturing operation
125 environments, in terms of sharing information of the process, equipment, and devices.
126 NOTE 4 IEC 62264 defines models of functions in the manufacturing and control domains and information
127 exchanged with the enterprise domain.
128 0.3 Purpose and benefits of IEC 62832
129 While the standards mentioned above provide a method for describing properties of a given
130 device, IEC 62832 extends this method by defining a reference model for the representation of
131 production systems, which include the devices.
132 In order to manage a production system effectively throughout its life cycle, it is very important
133 to have its digital representation and to maintain the contents appropriately in response to its
134 evolution in its life cycle. Activities related to the production system will access, update, and
135 use the contents of digital representation in order to support the whole life cycle of the
136 production system. This digital representation provides a consistent information interchange
137 between all processes and partners involved and makes related information understandable,
138 reusable and changeable through the entire production system life cycle.
139 Dictionaries and models can help to establish such digital representation by providing
140 descriptions of elements, such as equipment and devices, of the production system. However,
141 additional information is needed in order to achieve the intended digital representation of
142 production systems, such as descriptions of relationship between the elements.
143 IEC 62832 provides a framework used for establishing and maintaining the digital
144 representations of production systems, including the elements, relationships between these
145 elements and the exchange of information about these elements.
146 The framework aims at reducing the interoperability barriers for exchange of information for the
147 various activities related to production systems. The main advantages of this method are that
148 all information related to a production system is described in a standardized manner, and it can
149 be used and modified through its entire life cycle. The method defined in IEC 62832 is kept as
150 generic as possible in order to enable its use in several industrial sectors.
151 NOTE Enterprise modelling concepts are described in standards referenced in the Bibliography (for example
152 ISO 15704, ISO 11354-1).
153 0.4 Contents of the IEC 62832 series
154 The IEC 62832 series consists of multiple parts which provide:
155 • general introduction to the model and principles of the Digital Factory framework (DF
156 framework);
157 • detailed data model for all the model elements of the DF framework;
158 • description of how the DF Framework is used to manage the life cycle of a production
159 system;
160 • description of how data is migrated into the DF framework.

169 1 Scope
170 This part of IEC 62832, which is an International Standard, defines the general principles of the
171 Digital Factory framework (DF framework), which is a set of model elements (DF reference
172 model) and rules for modelling production systems.
173 This DF framework defines:
174 • a model of production system assets;
175 • a model of relationships between different production system assets;
176 • the flow of information about production system assets.
177 The DF framework does not cover representation of building construction, input resources (such
178 as raw production material, assembly parts), consumables, work pieces in process, nor end
179 products.
180 It applies to the three types of production processes (continuous control, batch control or
181 discrete control) in any industrial sector (for example aeronautic industries, automotive,
182 chemicals, wood).
183 NOTE This document does not provide an application scenario for descriptions based on ISO 15926, because
184 ISO 15926 uses a different methodology for describing production systems.
185 The representation of a production system according to this document is managed throughout
186 all phases of the production system life cycle (for example design, construction, operation or
187 maintenance). The requirements and specification of software tools supporting the DF
188 framework are out of scope of this document.
