On-site calibration of measuring instruments is frequently very time-consuming and expensive. This is also true for applications with several measurands. One of these of this may be the metering skid, something for the custody transfer measurement of the amount of natural gas transferred. เกจวัดแรงดัน in the industry from Saudi Arabia has now significantly streamlined the testing process at this time: with the multi-functional CPH8000-P1 calibrator from WIKA, a ?calibration laboratory in a case?.
The heart of a metering skid may be the flow computer. It processes the information from all of the measuring instruments and calculates the precise amount of natural gas that flows to the client. Natural gas is compressible, therefore the monitoring of pressure and temperature during gas transfer plays a crucial role.
Verification may be the law
Because even small measuring errors could cause noticeable losses in turnover, the measuring instruments should be calibrated regularly. This is usually done at the facility. Each on-site calibration must be verified in accordance with regulations. This implies proving consistent repeatability of the test results and traceability to the assigned references. In addition, the regulations require the test equipment to be approved for use in hazardous areas.
In view of the requirements, the calibration personnel of WIKA customers previously had to utilize many different pieces of equipment so as to adequately fulfil their tasks. In addition to pressure and temperature calibrators, this included a pneumatic pump for the test pressure, a HART� communicator and a resistance decoder. The on-site calibration cost time and effort accordingly.
The CPH8000-P1 multi-functional calibrator significantly reduces your time and effort required for on-site calibration.
Four measuring channels
The gas company in Saudi Arabia has reduced this effort in one fell swoop with the CPH8000-P1 portable multi-function calibrator from WIKA. The case-mounted instrument calibrates pressure measuring instruments and also resistance thermometers and thermocouples. The test pressure is generated having an integrated pump. The CPH8000-P1 has four measuring channels. It can thus perform and display up to four measurements simultaneously. The ATEX-approved version also supplies the test items and reference sensors in the metering skid with voltage (DC 24 V) without danger.
Documentation without problems
During the test procedure, the CPH8000-P1 ? via its integrated HART� module ? communicates directly with the measuring instruments, which may also be HART�-capable. Its powerful data logger and the large memory capacity support an individual in the subsequent documentation of the on-site calibration. The machine provides all the details relevant for verification.
