Standardization
The Power Systems association is responsible for standardization in the field gas and steam turbines at a national level and also coordinates an ISO secretariat. Its activities focus on standardization in the field of steam turbines.
Standardization of steam turbines
In the context of international standardization, standardization activities mainly focus on the following norms developed under the direction of and in collaboration with VDMA:
IEC 60045-1 (1991)
Steam turbines - Part 1: Specifications
IEC 60953-1 (1990)
Rules for steam turbine thermal acceptance tests. Part 1: Method A - High accuracy for large condensing steam turbines
IEC 60953-2 (1990)
Rules for steam turbine thermal acceptance tests. Part 2: Method B - Wide range of accuracy for various types and sizes of turbines
IEC 60953-3 (2001)
Rules for steam turbine thermal acceptance tests - Part 3: Thermal performance verification tests of retrofitted steam turbine
IEC 61063 (1991)
Acoustics - Measurement of airborne noise emitted by steam turbines and driven machinery
IEC 61064 (1991)
Acceptance tests for steam turbine speed control systems
IEC/TS 61370 (2001)
Steam turbines - Steam purity
Standardization activities are supported by the Steam Turbine Committee.
