Test Equipment
Required
Depending upon the type of calibration you choose, you may need any
of the following test equipment to accurately calibrate the transmitter:
• Digital Voltmeter or milliammeter with 0.02% accuracy or better
• SFC Smart Field Communicator or a PC running SCT 3000 software
• Calibration-standard input source with a 0.02% accuracy
• 250 ohm resistor with 0.01% tolerance or better.
Using the SFC or SCT
for Calibration
Transmitter calibration can be accomplished by using either the SCT 3000
(which is recommended) or a Smart Field Communicator (SFC).
Using the SCT, calibration procedures for the SMV 3000 are available in
the on-line user manual. Step procedures for calibrating the SMV 3000
using the SFC can be found in the Smart Field Communicator Model
STS103 Operating Guide, 34-ST-11-14.
ATTENTION
If the transmitter is digitally integrated with our TPS/TDC 3000 control
systems, you can initiate range calibration and calibration reset functions
through displays at the Universal Station. However, we still recommend
that you do a range calibration using the SCT with the transmitter removed
from service and moved to a controlled environment. Details about doing
a calibration reset through the Universal Station are given in the PM/APM
Smartline Transmitter Integration Manual, PM12-410 which is part of the
TDC 3000 system bookset.
