6.1 Recommendations for Transmitter Calibration

The ST 800 pressure transmitter does not require periodic calibration to maintain accuracy. Typically,
calibration of a process-connected transmitter will degrade, rather than augment the capability of a smart
transmitter. 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.

6.2 Calibration Procedures

For a transmitter operating in analog mode, you must calibrate its output signal measurement range using
any compatible handheld communicator or a local display.
Calibration information and procedures for a transmitter operating in the HART/DE mode are provided
in the ST 800 Series HART/DE Option User's Manual, document number 34-ST-25-38, Section on

"Calibration."

6.2.1 Dual/Triple Cal

STA, STD, STG and STF800 models are optionally offered with multiple calibrations. In lieu of a
standard factory calibration, units can be supplied with 1, 2, or 3 customer specified calibrations. These
calibrations are stored in the meter body and provide users with factory calibrated performance at up to
three different calibrated ranges. This increases application flexibility without requiring any costly
recalibration or additional inventory.
