Publish Time: 2024-11-13
The self-calibration function of Temperature Transmitter is an important function that can ensure the accuracy and stability of measurement in various environments and working conditions.
1. The basic principle of self-calibration
Zero point calibration: The self-calibration function automatically adjusts the output signal by placing the Temperature Transmitter in a known temperature environment (usually zero degrees or room temperature) to ensure that the output signal at zero degrees or room temperature is consistent with the actual temperature.
Range calibration: Calibrate at a known high temperature point (such as 100°C) to adjust the output signal to ensure that the output signal at high temperature is consistent with the actual temperature.
2. Advantages of self-calibration
Real-time calibration: The self-calibration function can perform real-time calibration during use, and promptly correct measurement errors caused by environmental changes, equipment aging and other factors to ensure the accuracy of measurement data.
Reduce manual intervention: Through the automated calibration process, the complexity and uncertainty of manual calibration are reduced, the operating error is reduced, and the reliability and accuracy of calibration are improved.
3. Steps of self-calibration
Preparation: Ensure that the Temperature Transmitter and calibration equipment (such as standard temperature source, calibration furnace, etc.) are in good working condition, the ambient temperature is stable, and external interference is avoided.
Connect equipment: Connect the Temperature Transmitter to the calibration equipment and data logger, and ensure that all connections are stable and reliable to avoid signal interference and data loss.
Start self-calibration: Follow the operating manual of the Temperature Transmitter to start the self-calibration function. Usually you need to enter the calibration mode, enter the calibration parameters (such as standard temperature value), and start the calibration process.
Record data: During the calibration process, record the output signal and actual temperature value of the Temperature Transmitter, compare the difference between the two, and analyze the calibration results.
Adjust parameters: According to the calibration results, automatically or manually adjust the calibration parameters of the Temperature Transmitter, such as zero offset, range coefficient, etc., to ensure that the output signal is consistent with the actual temperature.
Save settings: After completing the calibration, save the calibration settings, exit the calibration mode, and resume normal measurement work.
4. Time and frequency of self-calibration
Regular calibration: Perform self-calibration regularly, such as once a month or once a quarter. Determine the calibration cycle according to the use environment and frequency of the Temperature Transmitter to ensure the long-term stability of the measurement data.
Special situation calibration: Perform additional calibration in special situations such as equipment maintenance, environmental changes, and long-term non-use to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the measurement data.
5. Verification of calibration results
Standard temperature source verification: Use a standard temperature source (such as a precision thermometer, standard calibration furnace, etc.) to verify the calibration results to ensure that the output signal of the Temperature Transmitter is consistent with the standard temperature source.
Data analysis: Analyze the calibration data, draw the calibration curve, evaluate the accuracy and stability of the calibration, and discover and solve potential measurement errors.
6. Calibration records and maintenance
Record keeping: After each calibration, record the calibration data, calibration time, calibration personnel and other information in detail, and establish a calibration file for easy traceability and management.
Equipment maintenance: Regularly check and maintain the Temperature Transmitter and calibration equipment to ensure that they are in good working condition and avoid calibration errors caused by equipment aging and failure.
The self-calibration function of Temperature Transmitter can automatically and in real time guarantee the accuracy and stability of measurement data, reduce manual intervention and operation errors, and improve the reliability and accuracy of calibration. Through regular calibration, calibration result verification, data analysis and equipment maintenance, it is ensured that Temperature Transmitter can provide accurate measurement data in various environments and working conditions, meeting the high requirements and standards of industrial production and scientific research.
