Sensor and transmitter as one assembly
Temperature measurement can be specified with combined sensor and transmitter calibration at points relevant to the process. The results then describe the actual assembly being supplied.
Offered solution
Process instrument checks and calibration
From sensors and transmitters to signals in the control system, we define the measurement scope, supporting work and required records.
Operating context
The whole application matters.
A useful process value depends on the complete measurement chain. Instrument settings, signal conversion, wiring and PLC processing all matter. We arrange instrument checks, calibration and coordinated service. The scope can cover an individual instrument, a sensor and transmitter assembly or a measurement loop. Available metrology facilities support work on flow and level instruments, with the method and range selected for the instrument and its use. Where accredited calibration is required, we arrange it with a laboratory whose scope matches the requirement.
Scope of the solution
- Instrument identification and configuration checks
- Definition of calibration points, range and records
- Output signal checks and connection to PLC or SCADA
- Agreed adjustment followed by a check of the result
- Preparation for removal, spool pieces and reinstallation
- Inspection and calibration of flow, pressure and temperature instruments using our own equipment and a procedure agreed for the instrument.
Engineering priorities
From operating need to design.
Signal through to the control room
A loop check examines ranges, units, indication and the control system response to a defined input. It serves a different purpose from instrument calibration.
Taking instruments out of service
Removal, temporary spool pieces and reinstallation are coordinated with the shutdown and the metrology provider.
In-house equipment for flow, pressure and temperature
Our calibration facilities include a flowmeter line, a hydraulic pressure calibrator and a temperature calibrator. Equipment suitability is assessed against the instrument, working range, medium and required points. The record links instrument identification to the reference used, conditions and results; an agreed adjustment can be followed by a repeat check.
Before engineering
Inputs that matter.
- Instrument type, serial number and intended use
- Working range, units and required tolerance
- Medium, process conditions and environment
- Required points and type of record
- Shutdown window and allocation of installation tasks
Agreed with the proposal
Outputs and acceptance.
- Inspection record or calibration certificate for the agreed scope
- Instrument, reference, condition and result identification
- Configuration change record and maintenance recommendations
The actual scope and acceptance criteria depend on the application and contract.

Control systemTC700 → TC800
Specified temperature points0 / +80 / +150 °C
Requirement
Remote level, high-level and temperature measurement proposed with PLC renewal and SCADA changes.
Proposed solution
The base proposal covered ten tanks, with six additional tanks as a separate option. It included replacing TC700 with TC800, extending analogue inputs, connecting measurement loops and modifying visualization. The temperature instrumentation quotation included sensor and transmitter assembly calibration at three specified points with a supplier laboratory certificate.
Proposed scope
- Field instrumentation and related installation work
- PLC, new loops and SCADA
- New EPLAN documentation including an editable project
- Planned commissioning, process tests and training
- Arranging calibration of specified temperature assemblies
The proposed retrofit connects instruments, signals, control and documentation. Calibration points apply to the selected temperature assemblies in this proposal.

Preparing flowmeters for subsequent service
Meter positions19
Quoted nominal sizesDN 15–150
Installation phasesremoval and reinstallation
Requirement
Mechanical removal and reinstallation of nineteen flowmeters with fabrication of temporary pipe spool pieces.
Proposed solution
The quotation covered nineteen positions, spool pieces, gaskets and two installation interventions. The site review considered access and pipe operating conditions. Instrument electrical disconnection and reconnection remained with the operator. Meter calibration was not part of the documented quotation scope.
Proposed scope
- Temporary spool piece fabrication
- Mechanical meter removal and spool installation
- Meter reinstallation and gasket replacement
- Coordination of access and operator interfaces
An example of preparation for service or metrology work. Subsequent calibration and instrumentation work are defined separately.

Before we start
Questions that shape the project.
Is calibration the same as adjustment?
Calibration establishes the relationship between reference values and instrument indications. Adjustment changes the instrument response. Following adjustment, the result is assessed again; both activities are defined in the work scope.
Can accredited calibration or legal verification be requested?
The required record is selected for the instrument and its use. Accredited calibration is arranged with an appropriate laboratory. Legal verification is a separate metrological activity.
