PT calibration

Question

PT calibration

Accepted Answer

Isolate pressure transmitter from process after getting permit , release pressure opening vent valve. Connect druck pressure calibrator or multimeter on positive and negative to measure output 4- 20mA . Switch on 24 VDC supply and apply pressure after calculating range of pressure transmitter . Check pressure at five points 0%,25%,50%,75%,100% and check if there is any difference in output for each points of pressure applied, if there is any difference we can adjust by adjusting screws

Accepted Answer

Isolate the pressure transmitter from process.slowly open the vent plug and the vent valve to release the pressure.connect the multimeter with themultimeter with the transmitter and ensure that output is 4ma when 0 pressures is applied.Connect the hand held test pump (pressure source) to the transmitter.Ensure there is no leak.Apply pressure range at 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100% and check there is any error.If there is any error calibration should be done.
