Step 4
Characterizing sensors with copper RTDs
Use the procedures in one of the following manuals to characterize the
sensor for flow, or see AMS on-line help:
•
Using the HART Communicator with Micro Motion Transmitters
•
Using ProLink Software with Micro Motion Transmitters
•
Using Modbus Protocol with Micro Motion Transmitters
When entering the flow calibration factor, replace the second decimal
point with the letter "C", if the sensor has a copper RTD, as shown in the
example above. If the sensor has a platinum RTD, do not use a letter in
place of the decimal point.
CAUTION
Failure to characterize a sensor with a copper RTD will
cause measurement error.
If the sensor has a copper RTD, the flow calibration factor
programmed into the transmitter must be modified to
ensure accurate flow measurement.
Replace the second decimal point in the flow calibration
factor with the letter "c".
Example:
Calibration factor with platinum RTD: 63.1905.13
Calibration factor with copper RTD: 63.1905c13
