    How to perform temperature sensor calibration at site ?

    If you have a thermowell adjacent to the RTD you can insert a (calibrated) temperature probe and check they are reading within 0.5 degC of one another. As for the transmitter you can inject a resistance at 5 points across the range of the transmitter and measure the output which you compare...

    Dear members, I am looking for d

    I think rather than the standard, although it may be a useful reference, you require the calculation to determine the fuel gas density. There are numerous resources online if you search for ISO 6976 calculation however http://www.sgc-valid8.com/ may prove useful.

    AGA 8

    Typically ISO6976 is used in the UK to calculate standard density, hence std volume

    Calculating Standard Volume

    Perhaps the meter can be reconfigured to output std volume? Otherwise, you could convert your volume to mass using the density, then convert it again to std volume units using the std density. Quite messy though and unlikely to any reporting requirements.

    Is this a 2 or 3 phase separator? Which meters are installed?

    Calculating Standard Volume

    AGA8 will calculate a base density

    Looking for top instrument calibration brands

    Whilst it won't be the cheapest option, the Beamex MC5 is an excellent all in one multifunction calibrator

    Orifice Flowmeter Check

    In addition you should check the face of the orifice plate for contamination – lube oil, grease, dust, etc and any damage to the upstream face. You could also check the orientation of the plate, it’s not so uncommon to find a plate that has been installed the wrong way round. Quite often sites...
