Zeroing of gauge pressure transmitter
Thread Content
We have a gauge pressure transmitter on site, and the installation company messed up its zero point setting. Let’s see how we can adjust the zero point correctly
There are also some things to keep in mind when installing gauge pressure transmitters; if a capillary is present, negative migration cannot be achieved
Do I need to adjust the zero point of the gauge pressure? Reset it to factory settings – there’s no other solution. If it works, that’s good; if not, the same approach applies
1. Find a vacuum pump for calibration. 2. Set the full scale and 0.1 MPa; ignore the values below. 3. Adjust the zero point (offset) to 0.1 MPa to set the range, and then adjust the zero point (offset) so that the output corresponds to 0.1 MPa.
As mentioned on the 4th floor, it actually involves evacuating to 0. . .
The 0 I’m referring to is the absolute pressure zero point, that is, a negative value for atmospheric pressure. . .
Is there any equipment that can draw a 0? That’s too idealistic. Reset to factory settings to resolve the issue directly
Restoring to factory settings is a good option
Drawing a “0” is only relative. If you are measuring at the 1 mbar (=1 hPa) level, then by pumping it down to the Pa level, it can be considered as “0” ； If it is measured at the 1 Pa level, by pumping it down to the 10^(-2) Pa level, it can be considered as “0”. There is definitely no absolute “0”.
Are you just performing a zero calibration, if the range size doesn’t change? I do have a suggestion: you can calibrate a measurement value within the allowable range of the scale. Zero is accurate too. It can also be explained in principle.
That’s also a good idea; I’d like to give it a try by resetting it to factory settings to see how it works
