Pressure calibrator
Overview
The intrinsically safe, advanced modular calibrator (AMC) is part of a set of hand-held modules that can be quickly put together to include a wide range of calibrator functions.
Advanced modular calibrator, DPI 620-IS (this user manual): This is a battery-powered instrument for electrical
measure and source operations and HART® communications; see Table A1 (front cover). It also supplies the power and user interface functions for all the add-on modules. Use the touch-screen to display up to six different parameters.
Pressure module carrier, MC 620-IS (this user manual):
This attaches to the DPI 620-IS calibrator to make a fully integrated pressure indicator instrument. To measure and display pneumatic or hydraulic pressures, up to two interchangeable pressure modules can be used at a time.
When not in use fit blanking device (part number 191-369).
Pressure modules, PM 620-IS (this user manual):
Optional item. These modules attach to the pressure module carrier (MC 620-IS) or to a pressure station (PV 62x-IS) to give the DPI 620-IS calibrator the necessary pressure measurement functionality. They are fully interchangeable “plug and play” modules with no initial set-up or user calibration.
Pressure stations, PV 62x-IS (user manual - K0462:
Optional item. To make a fully integrated pressure calibrator, attach the DPI 620-IS calibrator to one of the three pressure stations:
two pneumatic pressure stations gives an accurate and
controlled pressure and vacuum conditions:
PV 621-IS: -950 mbar to 20 bar (-13.5 to 300 psi) version PV 622-IS: -950 mbar to 100 bar (-13.5 to 1500 psi) version
one hydraulic pressure station gives an accurate and
controlled hydraulic pressure conditions:
PV 623-IS: 0 to 1000 bar (15000 psi)
The advanced modular calibrator (AMC-IS) and the pressure module (PM 620-IS) are part of a set of hand-held modules that can be quickly put together to include a wide range of calibrator functions.
To give the attached equipment overpressure protection, there are pressure relief valves (PRV) available for all the pressure stations.

8.1 Introduction

8.2 About HART

The DPI 620-IS calibrator can be used to communicate with devices that use the HART
®
protocol:
The Universal and Common Practice commands specified in

functions
Read and understand the “Safety” section.
Do not use a damaged instrument.
Note: Use only original parts supplied by the manufacturer.
The HART® (Highway Addressable Remote Transducer) protocol uses a digital signal on top of a standard 4 - 20 mA current loop to get data to and from a HART following are typical operations:
®
enabled field device. The
read the primary variable and the analogue output.
read the device serial number, type and supplier.
get calibration data (upper and lower range values, sensor
limits, calibration date).
do status and fault finding checks.
change the device configuration (range, units, damping).
One HART device (a master device) starts and controls the communications with commands. The field device (a slave device) uses each command to make a change and/or send data back.
Two master devices are permitted: a primary master (usually the main control and monitor system), and a secondary master (usually a hand-held communicator). The DPI 620-IS calibrator operates as a secondary master.

Methods
Only a single tap on the screen is required to open any item in black or open any folder.
Terminology PV = Digital Value of Primary Variable (i.e. this is the parameter that
the transmitter measures - pressure, current, voltage).
PV AO = Digital Value of Primary Variable mA current.
DPI 620-IS CH1 = Analogue Value of Primary Variable (actual
calibrated value).
DPI 620-IS CH2 = Analogue value of Primary Variable mA current
(actual calibrated value).
DPI620 P1, P2 and IDOS reflect the analogue pressure values measured by the relevant pressure ports on the DPI620-IS.
Range Values PV LRV = Lower range value of Primary Variable.
PV URV = Upper range value of Primary Variable.
Example: Transmitter under test has a range of -200°C to +800°C.
Setting the LRV to -20°C (zero value) and URV to +20°C (span value) allows re-ranging the transmitter (zero & span) to specified limits.
The PV % of range in this example for a PV = 0°C is equal to 50%.

The loop test can be put into various modes,
typically 4 mA and 20 mA should be selected. The Analogue value of Primary Variable mA current (actual calibrated value) of the transmitter can be seen by selecting the CH2 drop-down box. If this value needs adjusting then use the analogue trim (sometimes referred to as D/A trim) in the calibration menu.
Analog trim (D/A trim)
Using the DPI 620-IS, an analogue trim can be performed on
the 4 to 20 mA loop without having to connect any external reference meters.
Navigate to the calibration folder and select the D/A trim
method. Follow the on-screen instructions.

Type the Analogue value of Primary Variable mA
current (actual calibrated value) into the box using the key-pad and then press Set. Repeat this process with 20 mA selected. This will accurately calibrate the transmitter’s output 4 to 20 mA loop current.
Using the DPI 620-IS, a sensor trim on most Primary Variables
can be performed without having to connect any external reference meters. If the Primary Variable is a pressure device use the DPI 620-IS and PV 62x-IS pressure generation stations to provide the pressure source. Alternatively, use DPI 620-IS and MC 620-IS to accurately measure pressure.
Navigate to the calibration folder and select the sensor trim
method. Follow the on-screen instructions.
In this example a lower trim has been selected.
The DPI 620-IS is set-up to source a Primary Variable to the transmitter. CH1 has been configured to output 0°C. This can be done by selecting the Switch App button at the bottom of the method window and configuring the DPI 620-IS to simulate an RTD at 0°C. The Analogue Value of the Primary Variable can be seen by selecting CH1 on the drop-down menu.
Type the Analogue Value of the Primary Variable
(actual calibrated value) into the box using the key-pad and then press Set. Repeat this process with an upper trim value. This will accurately calibrate the transmitter’s sensor output.

8.4 Failed to find a
device
The following is a checklist of what to do.
When using the DPI620-IS to supply power, make sure that the
®
internal HART
resistor is turned on.
Check the preferences option and set this to find first , then
re-start the application. This will ensure that SDC625 finds a device that is not at poll address 0.
When supplying power to the transmitter, check that the loop
current measured on channel 2 is between 4 and 20 mA. In alarm conditions it is possible for it to be parked at 21.5 mA or
3.9 mA. However, if the current measured by channel 2 is far from these values, there must be a configuration fault.
If the transmitter is powered externally with an external HART
resistor, ensure that channel 2 has been turned off.

10.13 Procedures (CH1): CJ (measure)

Note: Do the TC mV (measure) calibration (Section 10.12)
before the cold junction calibration.
1. Connect the applicable calibration equipment in Table 10-1; for example: see Section 3.2.10 (Example procedure:
Measure or simulate a thermocouple (or TC mV)),
example A.
2. Set-up the DPI 620-IS calibrator:
Function = TC (measure); TC Type = K Type CJ Compensation; Mode = Automatic
3. Set the reference unit temperature: 0°C
4. Let the equipment get to a stable temperature
(minimum: 2 hours since the last power on).
5. Record these values:
the thermocouple temperature given on the reference unit,
T (actual).
the thermocouple temperature given on the calibrator,
T (measured).
the CJ temperature given on the calibrator, CJ (measured);
for example: in Section 3.2.10 example (A), CJ (measured) = 32.66.
6. Calculate the CJ (Cal Value) as follows:
CJ (Cal Value) = CJ (measured) - T (actual) + T (measured)
7. Use the calibration menu (Section 10.3) to do a one-point calibration for the CJ (measure) function.
When the screen shows “Sampling complete. ... ”, set the
correct Cal Value = CJ (Cal Value) in step 6.
8. To make sure the calibration is correct, select the TC (measure) function; see Section 3.2.10, (A).
9. Make sure the DPI 620-IS calibrator gives a thermocouple temperature that agrees with the temperature on the reference unit ±0.1°C (0.2°F).
