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

ATTENTION

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.

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.
