Foreword
Introduction
The OPC 40223 specification is developed by members of VDMA and/or the OPC Foundation. OPC UA is a
machine to machine communication technology to transmit characteristics of products (e.g. manufacturer name,
device type or components) and process data (e.g. temperatures, pressures or feed rates). To enable vendor
independent interoperability the description of product characteristics and process data has to be standardized
utilizing technical specifications, the OPC UA companion specifications.
Associations
VDMA Pumps + Systems / Compressors, Compressed Air- and Vacuum Technology
The VDMA represents around 3300 German and European companies in the mechanical engineering industry.
The industry represents innovation, export orientation, medium-sized companies and employs around four mil-
lion people in Europe, more than one million of them in Germany.
Under the roof of VDMA the professional associations Pumps + Systems and Compressors, Compressed Air
and Vacuum technology offer its members a management platform for informal meetings also on an interna-
tional level. Beyond that a continuous, significant support of international regulations (standards, guidelines,
recommendations) and its constant adaptation to changing requirements is administered. As unique feature of
the professional associations the Research Funds Pumps and Vacuum technology, active in precompetitive
manor offering the members to obtain fundamental knowledge-based methods.
OPC Foundation
OPC is the interoperability standard for the secure and reliable exchange of data and information in the industrial
automation space and in other industries. It is platform independent and ensures the seamless flow of infor-
mation among devices from multiple vendors. The OPC Foundation is responsible for the development and
maintenance of this standard.
OPC UA is a platform independent service-oriented architecture that integrates all the functionality of the indi-
vidual OPC Classic specifications into one extensible framework. This multi-layered approach accomplishes the
original design specification goals of:
– Platform independence: from an embedded microcontroller to cloud-based infrastructure
– Secure: encryption, authentication, authorization and auditing
– Extensible: ability to add new features including transports without affecting existing applications
– Comprehensive information modelling capabilities: for defining any model from simple to complex

1 Scope
In their basic function of conveying fluids or gases, pumps and vacuum pumps perform elementary tasks in
numerous technical processes in the process industry, building technology, the semiconductor and manufac-
turing industries, the food industry and water management. Additional functionalities, such as self-monitoring,
the generation of status and diagnostic information, offer great potential for optimizing operating processes.
Information for the identification of pumps is essential for device management, measured values for energy
consumption are an important source for energy management applications, etc. Highly functional pumps are
also multivariable devices (e.g. pressure, volume flow, temperature, etc.) because they require information
about the process during operation. Their versatile use and special significance make pumps and vacuum
pumps an important asset in the current developments around Industry 4.0 (I4.0).
I4.0 stands for the intelligent digital networking of products and processes to optimize the value chains of man-
ufacturers and users. The central object of current developments is the I4.0-component, a composition of Ad-
ministration Shell and asset. The Administration Shell represents the asset - e.g. a pump or vacuum pump - in
the digital I4.0-world. Among other things, it consists of submodels that describe different aspects or functions
of the asset in the form of standardized properties. They form the basis for a common language of pumps.
In 2019 pump manufacturers of the VDMA trade associations Pumps + Systems and Compressors, Com-
pressed Air and Vacuum Technology have specified a manufacturer-independent Administration Shell for
pumps and vacuum pumps for applications in the process industry, building technology, the semiconductor and
manufacturing industries, the food industry and water management. The work focused on three main I4.0 ap-
plication scenarios for the digital integration of pumps and vacuum pumps into the I4.0 information world: the
support of continuous and dynamic engineering over the life cycle, optimized operation through transparency
and adaptability of delivered products, and the provision of value-based services.
Based on acknowledged and applied National, European and International Standards the descriptions and def-
initions were used to develop submodels for pumps in the Administration Shell project. The developments are
based on fundamental work in the I4.0 environment, which describes the general structure of the administration
shell. On this basis, pump-specific submodels are developed. These are based on different standards which
describe aspects and requirements of pumps. In this OPC UA Companion Specification the contents of the
individual sumodels of the Asset Administration Shell were transferred to the information model of OPC UA.
Alongside the development of this OPC UA Companion Specification, the submodels and properties of the
Asset Administration Shell for pumps and vacuum pumps were integrated into the product classification system
ECLASS. Following the ECLASS Release 12.0 this OPC UA Companion Specification can be extended by the
ECLASS references.

3 Terms, definitions and conventions
3.1 Overview
It is assumed that basic concepts of OPC UA information modelling, OPC Unified Architecture - Part 100, and
OPC UA for Machinery - Part 1 are understood in this specification. This specification will use these concepts
to describe the OPC UA for Pumps and Vacuum Pumps Information Model. For the purposes of this document,
the terms and definitions given in OPC 10000-1, OPC 10000-3, OPC 10000-4, OPC 10000-5, OPC 10000-7,
OPC 10000-100, OPC 40001-1, and VDMA 24223.
Note that OPC UA terms and terms defined in this specification are italicized in the specification.
3.2 OPC UA for Pumps and Vacuum Pumps terms
3.2.1 PumpClass
Specific type of a Pump and value of the PumpClass Variable of an instance of the FunctionalGroup Design of
a Pump.
EXAMPLE 1 The pump P1 is of the PumpClass positive displacement pump.
EXAMPLE 2 The pump P2 is of the PumpClass turbo vacuum pump.
3.2.2 FunctionalGroup
Instance of the 2:FunctionalGroupType or one of its subtypes.
Note 1 to entry: In this specification, FunctionalGroup usually refers to an instance of a Pump specific ObjectType like
OperationalGroupType, ActuationType, or DesignType.
EXAMPLE 1 The pump P1 has the FunctionalGroups Identification, Design, and Operational.
3.2.3 KindOfQuantity
aspect common to mutually comparable quantities
Note 1 to entry: The division of the concept of quantity into several kinds of quantity is to some extent arbitrary. Examples:
• The quantities diameter, circumference, and wavelength, are generally considered to be quantities of the same
kind, namely of the kind of quantity called length.
• The quantities heat, kinetic energy, and potential energy, are generally considered to be quantities of the same
kind, namely of the kind of quantity called energy.
Note 2 to entry: Quantities of the same kind within a given system of quantities have the same dimension of a quantity.
However, quantities of the same dimension are not necessarily of the same kind.
Examples: The quantities moment of force and energy are not of the same kind, although they have the same dimension.
Similarly for heat capacity and entropy, as well as for relative permeability and mass fraction.
Note 3 to entry: The term "kind" is mainly used in expressions such as "quantities of the same kind." Two quantities of the
same kind are mutually comparable, so that they can be placed in order of magnitude. Length and mass are quantities of
different kinds because they are not mutually comparable.
[SOURCE: ISO/IEC Guide 99:2007, 1.2, modified – Note 3 has been modified.]
3.2.4 Port
Connection point to a Pump used for fluids or auxiliary devices.
Note 1 to entry: Ports are described in chapter 6.2.
EXAMPLE 1 The pump P1 has its process fluid inlet connected at the Port InletConnectionPort.
EXAMPLE 2 The pump P1 has its drive connected at the Port DrivePort.
3.2.5 Pump
Asset of the DeviceClass Pump and representation of a pump or vacuum pump.
Note 1 to entry: This term includes all described pump types defined in this specification.
EXAMPLE 1 The pump P1 has the FunctionalGroups Identification, Design, and Operational.

3.3 Conventions used in this document
3.3.1 Conventions for Node descriptions

Node definitions are specified using tables (see Table 2 ).
Attributes are defined by providing the Attribute name and a value, or a description of the value.
References are defined by providing the ReferenceType name, the BrowseName of the TargetNode and its
NodeClass.
– If the TargetNode is a component of the Node being defined in the table the Attributes of the composed
Node are defined in the same row of the table.
– The DataType is only specified for Variables; “[<number>]” indicates a single-dimensional array, for
multi-dimensional arrays the expression is repeated for each dimension (e.g. [2][3] for a two-dimen-
sional array). For all arrays the ArrayDimensions is set as identified by <number> values. If no <num-
ber> is set, the corresponding dimension is set to 0, indicating an unknown size. If no number is provided
at all the ArrayDimensions can be omitted. If no brackets are provided, it identifies a scalar DataType
and the ValueRank is set to the corresponding value (see OPC 10000-3). In addition, ArrayDimensions
is set to null or is omitted. If it can be Any or ScalarOrOneDimension, the value is put into “{<value>}”,
so either “{Any}” or “{ScalarOrOneDimension}” and the ValueRank is set to the corresponding value
(see OPC 10000-3) and the ArrayDimensions is set to null or is omitted. Examples are given in Table
1.
Table 1 – Examples of DataTypes

0:Int32 0:Int32 -1 omitted or null A scalar Int32.
0:Int32[] 0:Int32 1 omitted or {0} Single-dimensional array of Int32 with an un-
known size.
0:Int32[][] 0:Int32 2 omitted or {0,0} Two-dimensional array of Int32 with unknown
sizes for both dimensions.
0:Int32[3][] 0:Int32 2 {3,0} Two-dimensional array of Int32 with a size of 3 for
the first dimension and an unknown size for the
second dimension.
0:Int32[5][3] 0:Int32 2 {5,3} Two-dimensional array of Int32 with a size of 5 for
the first dimension and a size of 3 for the second
dimension.
0:Int32{Any} 0:Int32 -2 omitted or null An Int32 where it is unknown if it is scalar or array
with any number of dimensions.
0:Int32{ScalarOrOneDimension} 0:Int32 -3 omitted or null An Int32 where it is either a single-dimensional ar-
ray or a scalar.
– The TypeDefinition is specified for Objects and Variables.

– The TypeDefinition column specifies a symbolic name for a NodeId, i.e. the specified Node points with
a HasTypeDefinition Reference to the corresponding Node.
– The ModellingRule of the referenced component is provided by specifying the symbolic name of the
rule in the ModellingRule column. In the AddressSpace, the Node shall use a HasModellingRule Refer-
ence to point to the corresponding ModellingRule Object.
If the NodeId of a DataType is provided, the symbolic name of the Node representing the DataType shall be
used.
Note that if a symbolic name of a different namespace is used, it is prefixed by the NamespaceIndex (see
3.3.2.2).
Nodes of all other NodeClasses cannot be defined in the same table; therefore only the used ReferenceType,
their NodeClass and their BrowseName are specified. A reference to another part of this document points to
their definition.
Table 2 illustrates the table. If no components are provided, the DataType, TypeDefinition and ModellingRule
columns may be omitted and only a Comment column is introduced to point to the Node definition.

3.3.2 NodeIds and BrowseNames
3.3.2.1 NodeIds
The NodeIds of all Nodes described in this standard are only symbolic names. Annex A defines the actual
NodeIds.
The symbolic name of each Node defined in this document is its BrowseName, or, when it is part of another
Node, the BrowseName of the other Node, a “.”, and the BrowseName of itself. In this case “part of” means that
the whole has a HasProperty or HasComponent Reference to its part. Since all Nodes not being part of another
Node have a unique name in this document, the symbolic name is unique.
The NamespaceUri for all NodeIds defined in this document is defined in Annex A. The NamespaceIndex for
this NamespaceUri is vendor-specific and depends on the position of the NamespaceUri in the server
namespace table.
Note that this document not only defines concrete Nodes, but also requires that some Nodes shall be generated,
for example one for each Session running on the Server. The NodeIds of those Nodes are Server-specific,
including the namespace. But the NamespaceIndex of those Nodes cannot be the NamespaceIndex used for
the Nodes defined in this document, because they are not defined by this document but generated by the Server.
3.3.2.2 BrowseNames
The text part of the BrowseNames for all Nodes defined in this document is specified in the tables defining the
Nodes. The NamespaceUri for all BrowseNames defined in this document is defined in Annex A.
If the BrowseName is not defined by this document, a namespace index prefix like ‘0:EngineeringUnits’ or ‘2:De-
viceRevision’ is added to the BrowseName. This is typically necessary if a Property of another specification is
Page 19
overwritten or used in the OPC UA types defined in this document. Table 158 provides a list of namespaces
and their indexes as used in this document.
3.3.3 Common Attributes
3.3.3.1 General
The Attributes of Nodes, their DataTypes and descriptions are defined in OPC 10000-3. Attributes not marked
as optional are mandatory and shall be provided by a Server. The following tables define if the Attribute value
is defined by this specification or if it is server-specific.
For all Nodes specified in this specification, the Attributes named in Table 4 shall be set as specified in the table.
Table 4 – Common Node Attributes
Attribute Value
DisplayName The DisplayName is a LocalizedText. Each server shall provide the DisplayName identical to
the BrowseName of the Node for the LocaleId “en”. Whether the server provides translated
names for other LocaleIds is server-specific.
Description Optionally a server-specific description is provided.
NodeClass Shall reflect the NodeClass of the Node.
NodeId The NodeId is described by BrowseNames as defined in 3.3.2.1.
WriteMask Optionally the WriteMask Attribute can be provided. If the WriteMask Attribute is provided, it
shall set all non-server-specific Attributes to not writable. For example, the Description Attribute
may be set to writable since a Server may provide a server-specific description for the Node.
The NodeId shall not be writable, because it is defined for each Node in this specification.
UserWriteMask Optionally the UserWriteMask Attribute can be provided. The same rules as for the WriteMask
Attribute apply.
RolePermissions Optionally server-specific role permissions can be provided.
UserRolePermissions Optionally the role permissions of the current Session can be provided. The value is server-
specific and depend on the RolePermissions Attribute (if provided) and the current Session.
AccessRestrictions Optionally server-specific access restrictions can be provided.
3.3.3.2 Objects
For all Objects specified in this specification, the Attributes named in Table 5 shall be set as specified in the
table. The definitions for the Attributes can be found in OPC 10000-3.
Table 5 – Common Object Attributes
Attribute Value
EventNotifier Whether the Node can be used to subscribe to Events or not is server-specific.

For all Variables specified in this specification, the Attributes named in Table 6 shall be set as specified in the
Table 6 – Common Variable Attributes
Attribute Value
MinimumSamplingInterval Optionally, a server-specific minimum sampling interval is provided.

bles can be accessed by at least one user.
Value For Variables used as InstanceDeclarations, the value is server-specific; otherwise it shall
represent the value described in the text.
ArrayDimensions If the ValueRank does not identify an array of a specific dimension (i.e. ValueRank <= 0) the
ArrayDimensions can either be set to null or the Attribute is missing. This behavior is server-
specific.
If the ValueRank specifies an array of a specific dimension (i.e. ValueRank > 0) then the Ar-
rayDimensions Attribute shall be specified in the table defining the Variable.
Historizing The value for the Historizing Attribute is server-specific.
Page 20
Attribute Value
AccessLevelEx If the AccessLevelEx Attribute is provided, it shall have the bits 8, 9, and 10 set to 0, mean-
ing that read and write operations on an individual Variable are atomic, and arrays can be
partly written.
3.3.3.4 VariableTypes
For all VariableTypes specified in this specification, the Attributes named in Table 7 shall be set as specified in
the table. The definitions for the Attributes can be found in OPC 10000-3.

rayDimensions can either be set to null or the Attribute is missing. This behavior is server-spe-
cific.
If the ValueRank specifies an array of a specific dimension (i.e. ValueRank > 0) then the ArrayDi-
mensions Attribute shall be specified in the table defining the VariableType.

For all Methods specified in this specification, the Attributes named in Table 8 shall be set as specified in the
Table 8 – Common Method Attributes
Attributes Value
Executable All Methods defined in this specification shall be executable (Executable Attribute set to “True”),
unless it is defined differently in the Method definition.
UserExecutable The value of the UserExecutable Attribute is server-specific. It is assumed that all Methods can
be executed by at least one user.

4 General information to Pumps and Vacuum Pumps and OPC UA
4.1 Introduction to Pumps and Vacuum Pumps

Pumps are important industrial plant components in e.g. process industry, manufacturing industry and building
engineering services. Due to a large installed basis, they allocate considerable capital and resources in numer-
ous plants. An elementary task of pumps in operational process control engineering is to fulfill their basic func-
tion of conveying liquids or evacuating gases. Apart from the basic function, additional functionalities, e.g. self-
monitoring, the generation of condition information and innovative diagnostics, open up a large potential for the
optimization of the maintenance. To avoid breakdowns and to minimize downtimes of a production plant, self-
monitoring and diagnostic functionalities are requested by plant operators. Information about the identification
of pumps is essential for the audit trail and device management, the energy consumption is important for energy
management applications etc. High-functional pumps are multivariable devices since they need information
about the process. Such pumps are also a window to the process, an important source for additional information
about the current process state [1].
Therefore, the integration of the informational bookkeeping of pumps into process control engineering is not
only important for operational process control. Particularly its integration into a comprehensive plant asset man-
agement (e.g. foresighted maintenance) and plant energy management activates the full potential of pumps [1].
4.2 Introduction to OPC Unified Architecture
4.2.1 What is OPC UA?

OPC UA is an open and royalty free set of standards designed as a universal communication protocol. While
there are numerous communication solutions available, OPC UA has key advantages:
– A state of art security model (see OPC 10000-2).
– A fault tolerant communication protocol.
– An information modelling framework that allows application developers to represent their data in a way
that makes sense to them.
OPC UA has a broad scope which delivers for economies of scale for application developers. This means that
a larger number of high-quality applications at a reasonable cost are available. When combined with semantic
models such as OPC UA for Pumps and Vacuum Pumps, OPC UA makes it easier for end users to access data
via generic commercial applications.
The OPC UA model is scalable from small devices to ERP systems. OPC UA Servers process information
locally and then provide that data in a consistent format to any application requesting data - ERP, MES, PMS,
Maintenance Systems, HMI, Smartphone or a standard Browser, for examples. For a more complete overview
see OPC 10000-1.
4.2.2 Basics of OPC UA

As an open standard, OPC UA is based on standard internet technologies, like TCP/IP, HTTP, Web Sockets.
As an extensible standard, OPC UA provides a set of Services (see OPC 10000-4) and a basic information
model framework. This framework provides an easy manner for creating and exposing vendor defined infor-
mation in a standard way. More importantly all OPC UA Clients are expected to be able to discover and use
vendor-defined information. This means OPC UA users can benefit from the economies of scale that come with
generic visualization and historian applications. This specification is an example of an OPC UA Information
Model designed to meet the needs of developers and users.
OPC UA Clients can be any consumer of data from another device on the network to browser based thin clients
and ERP systems. The full scope of OPC UA applications is shown in Figure 1.

Figure 1 – The Scope of OPC UA within an Enterprise
OPC UA provides a robust and reliable communication infrastructure having mechanisms for handling lost mes-
sages, failover, heartbeat, etc. With its binary encoded data, it offers a high-performing data exchange solution.
Security is built into OPC UA as security requirements become more and more important especially since envi-
ronments are connected to the office network or the internet and attackers are starting to focus on automation
systems.
4.2.3 Information modelling in OPC UA
4.2.3.1 Concepts
OPC UA provides a framework that can be used to represent complex information as Objects in an Ad-
dressSpace which can be accessed with standard services. These Objects consist of Nodes connected by
References. Different classes of Nodes convey different semantics. For example, a Variable Node represents
a value that can be read or written. The Variable Node has an associated DataType that can define the actual
value, such as a string, float, structure etc. It can also describe the Variable value as a variant. A Method Node
represents a function that can be called. Every Node has a number of Attributes including a unique identifier
called a NodeId and non-localized name called as BrowseName. An Object representing a ‘Reservation’ is
shown in Figure 2.

Figure 2 – A Basic Object in an OPC UA Address Space
Object and Variable Nodes represent instances and they always reference a TypeDefinition (ObjectType or
VariableType) Node which describes their semantics and structure. illustrates the relationship between an in-
stance and its TypeDefinition.
The type Nodes are templates that define all of the children that can be present in an instance of the type. In
the example in Figure 3 the PersonType ObjectType defines two children: First Name and Last Name. All in-
stances of PersonType are expected to have the same children with the same BrowseNames. Within a type the
BrowseNames uniquely identify the children. This means Client applications can be designed to search for
children based on the BrowseNames from the type instead of NodeIds. This eliminates the need for manual
reconfiguration of systems if a Client uses types that multiple Servers implement.
OPC UA also supports the concept of sub-typing. This allows a modeler to take an existing type and extend it.
There are rules regarding sub-typing defined in OPC 10000-3, but in general they allow the extension of a given
type or the restriction of a DataType. For example, the modeler may decide that the existing ObjectType in some
cases needs an additional Variable. The modeler can create a subtype of the ObjectType and add the Variable.
A Client that is expecting the parent type can treat the new type as if it was of the parent type. Regarding
DataTypes, subtypes can only restrict. If a Variable is defined to have a numeric value, a sub type could restrict
it to a float.

Figure 3 – The Relationship between Type Definitions and Instances
References allow Nodes to be connected in ways that describe their relationships. All References have a Ref-
erenceType that specifies the semantics of the relationship. References can be hierarchical or non-hierarchical.
Hierarchical references are used to create the structure of Objects and Variables. Non-hierarchical are used to
create arbitrary associations. Applications can define their own ReferenceType by creating subtypes of an ex-
isting ReferenceType. Subtypes inherit the semantics of the parent but may add additional restrictions.

The figures above use a notation that was developed for the OPC UA specification. The notation is summarized
in Figure 5 – The OPC UA Information Model Notation. UML representations can also be used; however, the
OPC UA notation is less ambiguous because there is a direct mapping from the elements in the figures to Nodes
in the AddressSpace of an OPC UA Server.

A complete description of the different types of Nodes and References can be found in OPC 10000-3 and the
base structure is described in OPC 10000-5.
OPC UA specification defines a very wide range of functionality in its basic information model. It is not required
that all Clients or Servers support all functionality in the OPC UA specifications. OPC UA includes the concept
of Profiles, which segment the functionality into testable certifiable units. This allows the definition of functional
subsets (that are expected to be implemented) within a companion specification. The Profiles do not restrict
functionality, but generate requirements for a minimum set of functionality (see OPC 10000-7)
4.2.3.2 Namespaces
OPC UA allows information from many different sources to be combined into a single coherent AddressSpace.
Namespaces are used to make this possible by eliminating naming and id conflicts between information from
different sources. Each namespace in OPC UA has a globally unique string called a NamespaceUri which iden-
tifies a naming authority and a locally unique integer called a NamespaceIndex, which is an index into the
Server's table of NamespaceUris. The NamespaceIndex is unique only within the context of a Session between
an OPC UA Client and an OPC UA Server- the NamespaceIndex can change between Sessions and still identify
the same item even though the NamespaceUri's location in the table has changed. The Services defined for
OPC UA use the NamespaceIndex to specify the Namespace for qualified values.
There are two types of structured values in OPC UA that are qualified with NamespaceIndexes: NodeIds and
QualifiedNames. NodeIds are locally unique (and sometimes globally unique) identifiers for Nodes. The same
globally unique NodeId can be used as the identifier in a node in many Servers – the node's instance data may
vary but its semantic meaning is the same regardless of the Server it appears in. This means Clients can have
built-in knowledge of what the data means in these Nodes. OPC UA Information Models generally define globally
unique NodeIds for the TypeDefinitions defined by the Information Model.
QualifiedNames are non-localized names qualified with a Namespace. They are used for the BrowseNames of
Nodes and allow the same names to be used by different information models without conflict. TypeDefinitions
are not allowed to have children with duplicate BrowseNames; however, instances do not have that restriction.
4.2.3.3 Companion Specifications

An OPC UA companion specification for an industry specific vertical market describes an Information Model by
defining ObjectTypes, VariableTypes, DataTypes and ReferenceTypes that represent the concepts used in the
vertical market, and potentially also well-defined Objects as entry points into the AddressSpace.

5 Use cases
5.1 Device Identification

The use case Device Identification forms the basis for the operation of a Pump and the operators plant asset
management, e.g. Documentation Management, Energy Management and Maintenance Management. For this
purpose, the Pump shall provide properties for asset identification.
In addition to nameplate information of the Pump, the operator / integrator requires properties to describe its
functional role and installation place.
5.2 Configuration
This use case describes the pre-configuration and commissioning of Pump based on standardized manufacturer
and operator information. For this purpose, general characteristics about the pump type shall be provided by
the manufacturer. Properties that describe operational requirements for Pumps during operation shall be spec-
ified by the operator. Additionally, manufacturer and operator information of a Pump shall be compared.
5.3 Maintenance Management

For the integration of Pump in an operator's maintenance management application, the Pump should provide
properties for general maintenance and the three strategies breakdown maintenance, preventive maintenance,
and condition based maintenance.
To support asset monitoring, the Pump collects and analyzes operational and historical data (e.g. current values,
deviations, performance, wear). Since plant operators require a generalized health status of plant assets, the
Pump shall provide a generalized health status, based on the NAMUR NE107 categories.
Additionally, the Pump shall provide maintenance documentation, e.g. for ordering maintenance and wear parts.
5.4 Operation
This use case specifies all properties that characterize the operation of a Pump (e.g. current measurement
and control values). It is based on measurements, events, and further information from the Pump operation.
These can be collected and analyzed by the manufacturer or operator. Based on this analysis, Pumps can be
reconfigured or updated during operation. In addition, new services can be loaded into the Pump to optimize
pump operation.

6 OPC UA for Pumps and Vacuum Pumps information model overview
6.1 Modelling Concepts

The content of this OPC UA Companion Specification is based on the asset administration shell for pumps and
vacuum pumps. The asset administration shell and its submodels were modeled to describe the whole life cycle
of a Pump.
The organization Plattform Industrie 4.0 published the specification Details [2] of the Asset Administration Shell
to define the concept and metamodel for asset administration shells. The specification describes every aspect
of asset administration shells in detail and should be used for reference purposes.
Figure 6 shows an abstract example on the composition of an I4.0 component and the content of an asset ad-
ministration shell.
Figure 6 – Structure of an Asset Administration Shell
An asset administration shell is defined by the Plattform Industrie 4.0 organization as a “standardized digital
representation of the asset, corner stone of the interoperability between the applications managing the manu-
facturing systems. It identifies the Administration Shell and the assets represented by it, holds digital models of
various aspects (submodels) and describes technical functionality exposed by the Administration Shell or re-
spective assets. ” [2]
The content of an asset administration shells consists of submodels and properties. “Each submodel refers to
a well-defined domain or subject matter. Submodels can become standardized and thus become submodels
templates.” [2]
This OPC UA Companion Specification transfers the contents of the asset administration shell for pumps and
vacuum pumps into an OPC UA model by defining generic and specific ObjectTypes, VariableTypes and
DataTypes. In general, submodels are modeled as subtypes of the 2:FunctionalGroupType of OPC 10000-100.
The pump, i.e. the asset administration shell, is modeled as a subtype of the 2:TopologyElementType of OPC
10000-100.
For more information about the asset administration shell metamodel, it is recommended to consult the Details
of the Asset Administration Shell specification [2].
Page 29
6.2 Model Overview

In this OPC UA Companion Specification there are several subtypes of the 2:FunctionalGroupType and the
2:TopologyElementType defined. Figure 7 shows the general relationships between the PumpType and the
FunctionalGroups.
Figure 7 – Pumps & Vacuum Pumps Information Model (General - Structure)

Page 30
6.2.1 Ports
A Pump has several Ports. While most Pumps have inlet and outlet Ports, the number of other Ports may vary.
For this reason, the concept of Ports is introduced. Ports can be used to connect other components or systems
to the Pump. In this specification, the input and output Ports, as well as the drive Port for the connection of the
pump drive are defined. A port is not part of a submodel and therefore a port is modeled as a separate BaseOb-
ject and not, like submodels, as a FunctionalGroup. Figure 8 shows how the Port concept was integrated into
this OPC UA Companion Specification.
Figure 8 – Pumps & Vacuum Pumps Information Model (Ports - Structure)
6.2.2 Variables
In most cases Variables have the TypeDefinition 0:DataItemType or one of its subtypes. The optional Property
Definition can be added to a Variable that uses such a TypeDefinition. This allows manufacturers to store a
specific definitions for each Variable.
Variables defined in this specification that have the TypeDefinition 0:BaseAnalogType or one of its subtypes,
usually have a predefined unit for the 0:EngineeringUnits Property. If no value is specified, the 0:Engineer-
ingUnits Property should not be instantiated, or the Value Attribute shall be Null. To comply with this Companion
Specification, the default values specified should be used for the 0:EngineeringUnits Property. The 0:Engineer-
ingUnits should be sensible to the use of the application.
Page 31
Variables that use the DataType Boolean are modelled with the TypeDefinition 0:TwoStateDiscreteType. Such
Variables have the TrueState and FalseState Properties which shall be used for defining the actual states.
Variables that are children of the SupvervisionType or one of its subtypes represent supervision states. Such a
supervision state is active if the Boolean value is True (see example 1).
Variables that are not children of SupvervisionType or one of its subtypes provide defined True and False states
in their description (see Example 2).
EXAMPLE 1
If the Value Attribute of the Variable RotorBlocked (see section 7.12) is True, this means that the rotor of a pump
is blocked. If the Value Attribute of this Variable is False, it means that the rotor is not blocked.
EXAMPLE 2
The Variable ClockwiseRotation (see section 7.20) provides in the Description Attribute the Value Attributes for
the mandatory Properties TrueState and FalseState.
Description Attribute: Direction of rotation in which the shaft is seen to be turning in a clockwise direction when
viewing the drive end of the shaft. A "True" status means that the rotation of pump is clockwise and a "False"
status means that the rotation of pump is anticlockwise.
6.2.3 FunctionalGroups
Where it made sense, the BrowseName of a FunctionalGroup was taken from the recommendation in OPC
10000-100.
A FunctionalGroup that would have no Variables, Objects, or Methods if instantiated shall not be instantiated.
6.3 Extending FunctionalGroups

The manufacturer or system integrator of a Pump may wish to add Variables, Objects, or Methods which are
not yet defined by this specification. In such a case the additional Variables, Objects, or Methods shall be added
to an appropriate FunctionalGroup of the component. It is important, that the Variables, Objects, or Methods
which are added match the description of the FunctionalGroup they are added to. If there is no FunctionalGroup
available the Variables, Objects, and Methods fit in, the manufacturer or system integrator shall create a new
Object of the 2:FunctionalGroupType.
It is also possible to define a subtype of the 2:FunctionalGroupType or one of its subtypes to define a new
collection of Variables, Objects, or Methods. When subtyping, the manufacturer or system integrator should
keep in mind, that all Variables, Objects, and Methods of the supertype are also available to the new subtype.
In general, no new Variables, Objects, or Methods shall be created that are already available in this specifica-
tion. If the manufacturer or system integrator wants to add already existing Variables, Objects, or Methods to
another FunctionalGroup, the Organizes ReferenceType shall be used.
When creating new Variables that are not specified by this specification and are representing measurements
the 0:BaseAnalogType should be used as TypeDefinition. If such a Variable can be matched to a physical
quantity, this Variable should have the additional subcomponent KindOfQuantity that stores the physical quan-
tity information (see chapter 7.32). If the new Variable has a predefined unit, for example hours or meters, the
optional Property 0:EngineeringUnits should be used. The Property 0:Definition shall also be used to further
clarify the intended purpose of the Variable.

10 Namespaces
10.1 Namespace Metadata

Table 156 defines the namespace metadata for this document. The Object is used to provide version information
for the namespace and an indication about static Nodes. Static Nodes are identical for all Attributes in all Serv-
ers, including the Value Attribute. See OPC 10000-5 for more details.
The information is provided as Object of type NamespaceMetadataType. This Object is a component of the
Namespaces Object that is part of the Server Object. The NamespaceMetadataType ObjectType and its Prop-
erties are defined in OPC 10000-5.
The version information is also provided as part of the ModelTableEntry in the UANodeSet XML file. The
UANodeSet XML schema is defined in OPC 10000-6.

10.2 Handling of OPC UA Namespaces

Namespaces are used by OPC UA to create unique identifiers across different naming authorities. The Attributes
NodeId and BrowseName are identifiers. A Node in the UA AddressSpace is unambiguously identified using a
NodeId. Unlike NodeIds, the BrowseName cannot be used to unambiguously identify a Node. Different Nodes
may have the same BrowseName. They are used to build a browse path between two Nodes or to define a
standard Property.
Servers may often choose to use the same namespace for the NodeId and the BrowseName. However, if they
want to provide a standard Property, its BrowseName shall have the namespace of the standards body although
the namespace of the NodeId reflects something else, for example the 0:EngineeringUnits Property. All NodeIds
of Nodes not defined in this document shall not use the standard namespaces.
Table 157 provides a list of mandatory and optional namespaces used in a Pumps and Vacuum Pumps OPC
UA Server.

Table 157 – Namespaces used in an OPC UA for Pumps and Vacuum Pumps Server
NamespaceURI Description Use
http://opcfoundation.org/UA/ Namespace for NodeIds and BrowseNames defined in the OPC UA Mandatory
specification. This namespace shall have namespace index 0.
Local Server URI Namespace for nodes defined in the local server. This may include Mandatory
types and instances used in an AutoID Device represented by the
Server. This namespace shall have namespace index 1.
http://opcfoundation.org/UA/DI/ Namespace for NodeIds and BrowseNames defined in OPC 10000- Mandatory
100. The namespace index is Server specific.
http://opcfoundation.org/UA/Machinery/ Namespace for NodeIds and BrowseNames defined in this docu- Mandatory
ment. The namespace index is Server specific.
http://opcfoundation.org/UA/Pumps/ Namespace for NodeIds and BrowseNames defined in this docu- Mandatory
ment. The namespace index is Server specific.
Vendor specific types A Server may provide vendor-specific types like types derived from Optional
ObjectTypes defined in this document in a vendor-specific
namespace.
Vendor specific instances A Server provides vendor-specific instances of the standard types or Mandatory
vendor-specific instances of vendor-specific types in a vendor-spe-
cific namespace.
It is recommended to separate vendor specific types and vendor spe-
cific instances into two or more namespaces.
Table 158 provides a list of namespaces and their index used for BrowseNames in this document. The default
namespace of this document is not listed since all BrowseNames without prefix use this default namespace.

OPC UA for Pumps and Vacuum Pumps Namespace and mappings

A.1 Namespace and identifiers for OPC UA for Pumps and Vacuum Pumps Infor-
mation Model
This appendix defines the numeric identifiers for all of the numeric NodeIds defined in this specification. The
identifiers are specified in a CSV file with the following syntax:
<SymbolName>, <Identifier>, <NodeClass>
Where the SymbolName is either the BrowseName of a Type Node or the BrowsePath for an Instance Node
that appears in the specification and the Identifier is the numeric value for the NodeId.
The BrowsePath for an Instance Node is constructed by appending the BrowseName of the instance Node to
the BrowseName for the containing instance or type. An underscore character is used to separate each
BrowseName in the path. Let’s take for example, the PumpIdentificationType ObjectType Node which has the
ArticleNumber Property. The Name for the ArticleNumber InstanceDeclaration within the PumpIdentification-
Type declaration is: PumpIdentificationType_ArticleNumber.
The NamespaceUri for all NodeIds defined here is http://opcfoundation.org/UA/Pumps/
The CSV released with this version of the specification can be found here:
- http://www.opcfoundation.org/UA/schemas/Pumps/1.0/Opc.Ua.Pumps.NodeIds.csv

This appendix provides an informal example on how the PumpType defined in this specification can be used.
B.2 Instantiation of the PumpType

Figure 22 shows an example that illustrates an instantiated PumpType with the BrowseName "FluidPump".
According to OPC UA for Machinery, the instance is organized in the “3:Machines” folder.
The "FluidPump" has the four functional groups "4:Documentation", "4:Events", "2:Operational" and the man-
datory "2:Identification".
