23、s to provide users and suppliers of industrial-process measurement and control systems and parts of such systems with a uniform listing of the selected environmental conditions to which equipment may be exposed in specified locations. This part lists environmental climatic conditions e.g.air tempera
24、ture, humidity and air pressure in specified locations to which land-based and offshore industrial-process measurement and control systems may be exposed during operation, during periods when they are installed but inactive and during storage or transportation. Maintenance and repair conditions are
25、not considered. Environmental conditions directly related to fire and explosion hazards and conditions related to ionized radiation are likewise not considered. Effects of the specific environmental conditions on personnel are not within the scope of this part. The influence quantities considered in
26、 this part are limited to those which may directly affect the performance of process measurement and control systems. Only environmental conditions as such are considered. This part establishes location classes with severity levels or sets of severity levels for the environmental conditions listed.
27、Other environmental conditions are covered in other parts of the standard. The limit values of this part are defined and specified in IEC721-3-3 and IEC721-3-4. It is intended to serve as a basis for the preparation of comprehensive specifications for environmental conditions by the user and by the
28、supplier. One of the purposes of this part is to avoid problems which might result from neglecting considerations of specific environmental conditions affecting the performance of systems and parts of systems. An additional purpose of this part is to aid in the choice of severity levels for use in t
29、he development of evaluation specifications of industrial-process measurement and control equipment. 2 Normative references The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this part of IEC654.

Amendment1 (1991) 3 General A limited number of location classes with respect to climatic conditions
34、is given in clause4. The established classes may be applied also for storage and/or transportation (e.g.Class B2 for operation may be combined with Class C2 for transportation). Otherwise, it is recommended to refer to the appropriate classes of IEC721-3-1 and IEC721-3-2.EN60654-1:1993 4 BSI 05-1999
35、 Parameter severity values of the various operating conditions are shown by limit values rather than by means of average values. These values cover usual ranges of environmental conditions and are considered as having a low probability of being exceeded. It is recognized that extreme or special envi
36、ronmental conditions may exist where values are greater and/or less than the stated values. To accommodate this situation, “special” categories for environmental conditions are provided. Specifications for equipment to operate under “special” conditions are a matter for negotiation between user and
37、supplier but it is recommended to use values taken from IEC721-3-1, IEC721-3-2, IEC721-3-3 and IEC721-3-4. 4 Location classes with respect to climatic conditions Subclauses4.1 to4.5 establish types of locations such as: a) Weatherprotected locations: Class A: air-conditioned locations; Class B: heat
38、ed and/or cooled enclosed locations; Class C: sheltered and/or unheated enclosed locations; b) Non-weatherprotected locations: Class D: outdoor locations. These types of locations are based on appropriate combinations of climatic condition parameters and their limit values, corresponding to the clim
39、atic classes of IEC721-3-3 and IEC721-3-4 as listed in Table 1. Climatograms for the location classes are illustrated in the charts given in Annex A, since a simple description of a realistic combination of, for example, high temperature and high humidity is difficult to make. Temperature shall be c
40、onsidered as location temperature measured at a representative point within the local environment, including adjacent heat-generating equipment. It shall be taken into account that solar radiation may increase the temperature on the surface of equipment. Similar considerations apply to the humidity
41、measurement. When a number of instruments are concentrated in one place, the actual air temperature and the corresponding relative humidity may differ locally from the air temperature and humidity at the representative point, due to the heat generated by the instruments. The manufacturer shall speci
42、fy the amount of heat generated by his equipment, so that adequate measures can be taken to dissipate this heat. Temperature gradients are specified for all locations. When the rate of change is significant, it should be considered. Solar radiation is specified for all locations. ClassesA and B shou
43、ld include solar radiation if equipment is located near windows. Temperature gradients in the space of localenvironments caused by such phenomena as one-sided radiation or cold wind can produce thermal stress in equipment. Preferred values of gradients are not specified because they are dependent on
44、 the physical and material characteristics of the equipment which will occupy the local environment. The occurrence of condensation, wind-driven precipitation and formation of ice is also specified. Detailed specifications for the air quality and other conditions important for the proper operation a
45、nd life of equipment on locations which are not otherwise covered in this part are matters for negotiation between user and supplier. Some variations of air pressure are due to weather conditions; major variations are, in general, the result of altitude. Artificial pressurization may increase enviro
46、nmental pressure in certain locations. Air pressures other than those specified are matters of negotiation between user and supplier. 4.1 Air-conditioned locations (Class A) For air-conditioned locations (Class A), both air temperature and humidity are controlled within specified limits. These locat
47、ions are frequently provided for process-control computers and other electronic equipment requiring a controlled air environment. Major central control rooms with equipment for critical levels of process control are normally in this category. 4.2 Heated and/or cooled enclosed locations (Class B) For
48、 heated and/or cooled enclosed locations (ClassB), only air temperature is controlled withinspecified limits. Heated and/or cooled enclosed locations are commonly provided for operation of parts of a control system where operator surveillance on a continuous basis is required (i.e.when the location
49、is not an air-conditioned location). Storage of equipment is frequently (preferably) in a heated and/or cooled enclosed location. Heating and cooling are not generally available during transportation. Enclosed means of transportation are normally considered “sheltered locations” (Class C).EN60654-1:1993 BSI 05-1999 5 For Class B3, occasional condensation may occur, particularly at high relative humidity, but is normally of short duration. 4.3 Sheltered locations (Class C) For sheltered locati
