About This Item
IEC 62591:2016 defines the technical reference for Industrial networks - Wireless communication network and communication profiles - WirelessHARTTM, making it relevant for teams evaluating wireless communication in industrial automation environments. IEC 62591:2016 is commonly used when engineers, procurement staff, and compliance teams need a reliable document for technical review, documented evaluation, and conformity assessment planning. As an original edition, it serves as the primary reference for understanding the intended network and communication profile requirements associated with WirelessHARTTM.
IEC 62591:2016 standard overview
This publication addresses industrial wireless communication networks and the associated communication profiles for WirelessHARTTM. Its likely focus is on establishing a consistent technical basis for implementation, testing workflows, and operational consistency across compatible equipment and systems. For organizations performing technical validation or compliance preparation, IEC 62591:2016 provides a structured reference that can support engineering specification review, laboratory evaluation, and procurement checks where wireless industrial networking must be assessed against a defined profile.
Applications of IEC 62591:2016
The document is relevant to industrial automation projects that use wireless communication to connect field devices, monitoring systems, or control-related equipment within process environments. It may be used during product evaluation, system integration, and verification activities where interoperability and communication behavior need to be reviewed against a recognized technical document. Typical workflows include engineering documentation review, test planning, and quality workflows for organizations that need a dependable compliance reference for wireless industrial network deployments.
Why IEC 62591:2016 matters
IEC 62591:2016 matters because it helps teams align design decisions, testing activities, and procurement requirements around a common technical framework. That reduces risk during technical assessment and supports more consistent conformity assessment preparation, especially where wireless communication performance must be validated before deployment. It is also useful for quality assurance teams that need clear engineering documentation for operational consistency, safer integration, and more predictable verification outcomes across industrial network implementations.
