3 Terms and definitions
The following terms and definitions apply to this document.
3.1
Error
The algebraic difference between the measured value and the true value of
the measured variable.
Note: When the measured value is greater than the true value, the error is a
positive value. The error is usually expressed as a percentage of the
corresponding ideal range.
[GB/T 18271.1-2000, definition 3.8]
3.2
Accuracy
6 Technical requirements
6.1 General performance requirements
6. 1.1 Basic performance
6.1.1.1 Basic error
The basic error of the transmitter shall include the hysteresis and dead band
under certain conditions, which shall be at least grade 0.5. The test method is
carried out in accordance with the requirements of 7.3.1.
Note 1: The basic error is expressed as a percentage of the transmitter range.
Note 2: When the transmitter has a field indicator, its error is not included in the
transmitter's error.
6.1.1.2 Repeatability error
The repeatability error of the transmitter shall not exceed 1/2 of the absolute
value of the basic error. The test method is carried out in accordance with the
requirements of 7.3.2.
6.1.1.3 Functional accuracy
The functional accuracy of the transmitter shall be calculated according to the
sum of square roots of the errors produced by various influences. Except for
special requirements from users, its value shall not be greater than 2% under
normal operating conditions.
6.1.1.4 Response time
The response time required by the pressure transmitter shall be determined
according to the system function requirements. Except for special requirements
from users, it shall not be greater than 1.2s (at 90%).
6.1.2 Electrical performance
6.1.2.1 Insulation resistance
The insulation resistance between the output terminal of the transmitter and the
housing shall not be less than 100 MΩ. The test method is carried out in
accordance with the requirements of 7.3.12.
6.1.2.2 Insulation strength
The pressure transmitter shall be subjected to insulation strength test under
various operating environment conditions, without breakdown, flashover or
0.25%/6.9 MPa of the range. The test method is carried out according to the
requirements of 7.3.9.
6.1.3.7 Impact of one-way overload
Enter the maximum working pressure into the negative (or positive) cavity of
the differential pressure transmitter. After the pressure is removed, the change
in its lower limit value shall be corrected by zero adjustment.
Enter the maximum overload pressure for the relative pressure transmitter and
the absolute pressure chamber. After the pressure is removed, it will not cause
a permanent drift of more than ± 0.5% on the calibration curve.
The test method is carried out in accordance with the requirements of 7.3.10.
6.1.3.8 Impact of ambient temperature
When the ambient temperature is from 20 °C ± 2 °C to -25 °C ~ 70 °C or any
other temperature in the specified temperature range, the impact on accuracy
shall meet the requirements of 6.1.1.3 for the functional accuracy through
calculation. For remote capillary pressure transmitters, the impact of ambient
temperature is determined by the manufacturer. The test method is carried out
in accordance with the requirements of 7.3.5.
6.1.3.9 Humidity impact
Under the conditions of temperature of 40 °C ± 2 °C and relative humidity of 91%
~ 95%, the insulation resistance of the transmitter shall not be less than 2MΩ;
meanwhile its temperature influence and residual change shall meet the
requirements of 6.1.3.8. The test method is carried out in accordance with the
requirements of Chapter 6 of GB/T 18271.3-2000.
6.1.3.10 Impact of output load
When the load resistance changes from the minimum value to the maximum
value as specified by the manufacturer, the change of its output signal shall not
exceed one half of the basic error. The test method is carried out in accordance
with the requirements of ...
