Calibrating and Testing RTD Sensors
Typically RTDs are checked while calibrating
the connected device, such as a panel meter or
temperature transmitter. However, if a problem
is suspected with a temperature sensor, sensor
calibrations can be performed separately from
the calibration of process electronics.
Field checks of temperature sensors can be
easily performed with a dry-block or Micro-Bath.
For best results, a full calibration of a temperature
sensor is performed at the bench.
