7 De Calibration; Overview; Calibration Recommendations; Test Equipment Required For Calibration - Honeywell SmartLine Multivariable SMV800 Series User Manual

Overview

The SMV800 SmartLine Transmitter does not require periodic calibration to maintain accuracy.
Typically, calibration of a process-connected Transmitter may degrade, rather than augment its
capability. For this reason, it is recommended that a Transmitter be removed from service before
calibration. Moreover, calibration will be accomplished in a controlled, laboratory-type environment,
using certified precision equipment.

Calibration Recommendations

If the Transmitter is digitally integrated with a Honeywell Total Plant Solution (TPS) system, you can
initiate range calibration and associated reset functions through displays at the Universal Station,
Global User Station (GUS), and Allen-Bradley Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs). However, a
range calibration using the SCT3000 application with the Transmitter removed from service is
recommended. Refer to SCT3000 SmartLine Configuration Tool Guide.
Calibration with the Transmitter removed from service needs to be accomplished in a controlled
environment. Details for performing a calibration reset through the Universal Station are provided in
the PM/APM SmartLine Transmitter Integration Manual, PM12-410, which is part of the TDC 3000
system book set.

Test Equipment Required for Calibration

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 millimeter with 0.01% accuracy or better

Honeywell Configuration Tools: Use the SCT3000 application to calibrate the SMV800 DE
model.

Calibration-standard input source with a 0.01% accuracy

250 ohm resistor with 0.01% tolerance or better.
