9th International ECLASS Congress

The Ecodesign Sustainable Product Regulation (ESPR) under the EU Green Deal will enforce a Digital Product Passport (DPP) for many products along their life cycles.

DPP4.0 is a concept developed by ZVEI to enable manufacturers to fulfill the DPP-requirements as well as to offer digital services for their products to any stakeholder in the market.

Technically the DPP4.0 is based on the Digital Nameplate and the Asset Administration Shell.

The ZVEI-Show Case illustrates how to calculate the CO2-footprint of a control cabinet by applying the DPP4.0-concept. 

Using practical examples, we show how you can easily create BMEcat or asset administration shells directly in the web browser. Furthermore, we show how to reuse existing data and provide it via APIs.

This presentation highlights the potential of using Asset Administration Shells (AAS) to power Digital Twins in the building industry. Of course, with ECLASS inside.

The continuous way of processing and providing standardized article data according to ECLASS and Co. Starting with the classification over several releases, the enrichment of property data, the entry into ECLASS Advanced and the creation of digital twin with the Asset Administration Shell (AAS).

The term "Digital Twin" is often used to describe digital representation. How device manufacturers can meet the associated different requirements from the market with the help of ECLASS is shown with corresponding examples.
