Step Press Key Read Display or Action Description
1
Connect SFC across loop wiring and
turn it on. If possible, locate SFC where
you can also view receiver instrument in
loop. If you want to verify transmitter
output, connect a precision milliammeter
or voltmeter in loop to compare
readings.
See Figure 38 for sample SFC and
meter connections in a typical
analog loop with a differential
pressure type transmitter.
2
Close block-off valves A and B. See Figure 42 for sample piping
arrangement.
3
Open plugs C and D. Allow system to stabilize at head
pressure.
