SensiNet Smart Sensor Calibration
|
From Sensicast Systems, Inc.
Calibrated instruments provide you with data that is predictable and accurate-factors that are critical in many monitoring applications. Sensicast's SensiNet This technical note will describe the best practices for performing calibrations on SensiNet integrated temperature and humidity (TEHU) and RTD (TEMP) Smart Sensors. Prior to starting the calibration process, there are some parameters that need to be determined and some factors to keep in mind. If an accredited calibration is required, it must be performed by an A2LA accredited lab. The required calibration test points and tolerances should be determined based on the specific application and ranges expected for each Smart Sensor. Typically these points fall at 15%, 50% and 85% of the range of interest. It is important to have an accurate measurement standard established that the measured values will be compared to. Products & Services
Resistance temperature detector (RTD) temperature transmitters convert RTD resistance measurements to current signals, eliminating the problems inherent in RTD signal transmission via lead resistance.

Temperature signal conditioners accept outputs from temperature measurement devices such as resistance temperature detectors (RTDs), thermocouples, and thermistors. They then filter, amplify, and/or convert these outputs to digital signals, or to levels suitable for digitization.
