Bench Calibration Guide for Technicians

Technicians calibrate pressure transmitters at a bench to ensure effective calibration in a stable, protected environment. The bench allows use of accurate equipment and evaluation of components before installation or if failure is suspected. Calibration involves connecting the transmitter to a calibrator, applying and adjusting pressure/vacuum, reading the reference pressure and current output, and repeating for all test points to check if the output is within tolerance.

Pressure Transmitter

Calibration at the bench


Technicians calibrate at the bench to ensure calibrations are effective and
don’t result in degradation of performance. They ensure that all components
are in good working order prior to installation, and can evaluate them when
component failure is suspected.

The bench provides a stable ambient environment for calibration, an


opportunity to use the most accurate equipment, and protection from factory
conditions during the commissioning testing, and calibration of pressure
transmitters.

To perform the test:


1. Connect the transmitter test hose from the calibrator to the transmitter
2. Connect the mA measurement jacks of the calibrator to the transmitter
3. Set the pressure/vacuum selection knob to the necessary function
4. Close the vent knob and supply metering valve
5. Apply pressure or vacuum from the pump by holding down the pump
button and release when the necessary pressure is reached
6. Correct the pressure with the fine pressure adjustment
7. Read the reference pressure and the current output of the transmitter
from the display
8. Repeat for all test points. If the measured mA signal at the test points is
found within tolerance the test is complete. If not, then adjustment is
required
