Identifier is the identifier of the sensor. The Identifier shall be unique within the AddressSpace.
Class indicates what type of sensor the current one is (e.g., temperature, vibration, humidity, others).
Name is used to distinguish and identify sensors on a GMS (e.g., temp_sensor_ext_1). Hence, the Name should be unique within the GMSType it belongs to.
The component Variables of the SensorType have additional Attributes defined in Table 42.
