indicator. It shall be 3 psi, for any deviation adjusts the zero
setting, record the reading.
7.4.18.3. Apply 20mA and note the output values reading in the
indicator. It shall be 15 psi, Adjust span setting for any
deviation.
7.4.18.4. Check the intermediate values 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%,
75%, 50%, 25%and 0% and 0% also.
7.4.18.5. Record the readings on the calibration sheet. Repeat the
process 2 or 3 times.
7.4.18.6. Place the sticker on the indicator as CALIBRATED with
date.
7.4.18.7. Record the test reading in the calibration sheet and shall
7.4.19. VIBRATION SENSING PROBES

Proximity measurement is used to detect radial, radial motion and
shaft speed measurement.
7.4.19.1. PROXIMITTER TRANSDUCER SYSTEM
a) The system has three individual parts. Probe, extension cable,
proximitter and 24V DC supply applied to the system.
b) The proximitter is basically a signal generator with a demodulator
circuit. When supplied a DC voltage its electronic circuit produces
a high frequency RF signal which sent to the tip of the coil.
c) The strength of the probe electromagnetic field is directly
proportional to the distance from the probe to the target surface.
According to the magnetic strength variation the current going
through the probe coil also changes. This change is detected by
the modulator and concerts to the proportional voltage.
7.4.19.2. CALIBRATION
7.4.19.2.1. TK3 kit an instrument used for calibration purpose
of that vibration probes. Its main components are the
servomotor, dial gauge, rotating disc holding system
etc.
7.4.19.2.2. To calibrate the probe, first fix the probe for
required gap by the help of a dial gauge, dial gauge is
used to detect the gap between the surface of the disc
and probe tip.
7.4.19.2.3. Apply 24V DC to the system, simulate radial and
axial vibration and note the voltage with millimeters.
Compare the gap voltage with the data sheet supplied
by the manufacturer. Repeat the process for 2 or 3
times.
7.4.19.2.4. Put the sticker on the transmitter as CALIBRATED
with date, name and sign of calibrator person.
7.4.19.2.5. Record the test reading in the calibration sheet and
shall be signed by the client as witness representative.
7.4.20. PANEL TEST

If instruments mounted on panel, they shall be tested in the panel
or the bench testing depending upon the feasibility &
manufacturers instruction.
7.4.21. NON-CONFORMANCE ITEM

If the inspection result or measurement valves cannot meet
acceptance rules or requirements, then the instrument/equipment
cannot be accepted, the check sheet and nonconformance report
should be filled (including nonconformance causation) and the
marking plate (including nonconformance item NO., date, name,
etc.) should be filled, which shall be hang on the equipment, then
the equipment/instrument should be stored at the area checked
but not accepted in the original packing and report to related
department.
