Summary of Guide4.1 The UUT is calibrated by determining the electricalresistance of its sensing element at one or more knowntemperatur

23、es covering the temperature range of interest. Theknown temperatures may be established by means of fixed-point systems or by using a reference thermometer. Either anSPRT or a PRT is recommended for use as the referencethermometer. However a liquid in glass (LIG) thermometer,thermistor, or thermocou

24、ple may be acceptable dependingupon the temperature of calibration, required accuracy, or otherconsiderations.4.2 The success of the calibration depends largely upon theability of the UUT to come to thermal equilibrium with thecalibration temperature of interest (fixed point cell or compari-son syst

25、em) and upon accurate measurement of the sensingelement resistance at that time. Instructions are included toguide the user in achieving thermal equilibrium and properresistance measurement, including descriptions of apparatusand instrumentation.4.3 Industrial platinum resistance thermometers are av

26、ail-able in many styles and configurations. This guide includeslimited instructions pertaining to preparation of the UUT into aconfiguration that facilitates proper calibration.4.4 Proper evaluation of calibration uncertainties is criticalfor the result of a calibration to be useful. Therefore, acon

27、siderable portion of this guide is devoted to uncertaintybudgets and the evaluation of uncertainties.5. Significance and Use5.1 This guide is intended to be used by laboratoriesinterested in the calibration of industrial platinum resistancethermometers that are intended to satisfy the requirements o

28、fSpecification E 1137/E 1137M. It is intended to provide aconsistent method for calibration and uncertainty evaluationwhile still allowing the user some flexibility in choice ofapparatus and instrumentation. It is understood that the limitsof uncertainty obtained depend in a large part upon theappar

29、atus and instrumentation used. Therefore, since this guideis not prescriptive in approach, it provides detailed instructionin uncertainty evaluation to accommodate the variety ofapparatus and instrumentation that may be employed.5.2 This guide is intended primarily to satisfy applicationsrequiring c

30、ompliance to Specification E 1137/E 1137M. How-ever, the techniques described may be appropriate for applica-tions where higher accuracy calibrations are needed.6. Sources of Error6.1 Uncertainties are present in all calibrations. Errors arisewhen the effects of uncertainties are underestimated or o

31、mitted.The predominant sources of uncertainty are described inSection 12 and listed in Table 2.7. Apparatus7.1 Resistance Measuring InstrumentsThe choice of aspecific instrument to use for measuring the UUT and referencethermometer resistance will depend upon several factors. Someof these factors ar

32、e ease of use, compatibility with computer-ized data acquisition systems, method of balancing, computa-tion ability, etc. All of the instruments listed are commerciallyavailable in high precision designs and are suitable for use.They require periodic linearity checks or periodic calibration.(Refer t

35、 of range to 0.01 ppm ofrange and with 612 to 912 digit resolution. These instrumentsare available in models using either AC or DC excitation. Thelinearity is typically based upon resistive or inductive dividersand is generally quite stable over time. Modern bridges areconvenient automatic balancing

36、 instruments but manual bal-ancing types are also suitable. These instruments typicallyrequire external reference resistors and do not perform tem-perature calculations.7.1.2 Digital Thermometer ReadoutDigital instrumentsdesigned specifically to measure resistance thermometers areavailable. Modern v

37、ersions function essentially as automaticpotentiometers and reverse the current to eliminate spuriousthermal emf. Precision instruments with linearity specificationsranging from 20 ppm of indication to 1 ppm of indication andwith 612 to 812 digit resolution are commercially available.Some models hav

38、e extensive internal computation capability,performing both temperature and statistical calculations. Peri-odic calibration is required.7.1.3 Digital Multimeter (DMM)Digital multimeters areconvenient direct indication instruments typically able toindicate in resistance or voltage. Some models have e

39、xtensiveinternal computation ability, performing both temperature andstatistical calculations. The use of DC offset compensation isrecommended. Caution must be exercised to ensure that theexcitation current is appropriate for the UUT and referencethermometer to avoid excessive self-heating. Periodic

40、 calibra-tion is required.7.1.4 Reference ResistorReference resistors are speciallymanufactured resistors designed to be stable over long periodsof time. Typically, they have significant temperature coeffi-cients of resistance and require maintenance in a temperatureenclosed air or oil bath. Some ha

41、ve inductive and capacitivecharacteristics that limit their suitability for use with ACbridges. Periodic calibration (yearly or semi yearly) is required.Resistors (AC or DC) are required to match the type ofmeasurement (AC or DC) system in use.7.2 Reference ThermometersThe choice of a specificinstru

42、ment to use as the reference thermometer will dependupon several factors, including the uncertainty desired, tem-perature range of interest, compatibility with existing instru-mentation and apparatus, expertise of staff, cost limitations,etc. All of the instruments listed are commercially available

43、invarious levels of precision and stability and may be suitable foruse. They all require calibration. The frequency of calibrationdepends a great deal upon the manner (care) in which they areused and the uncertainty required in use.7.2.1 SPRTSPRTs are the most accurate reference ther-mometers availa

44、ble and are used in defining the ITS-90 fromapproximately 260 C to 962 C. The SPRT sensing elementis made from nominally pure platinum and is supportedessentially strain-free. These instruments are extremely deli-cate and are easily damaged by mechanical shock. They areavailable sheathed in glass or

45、 metal and in long stem andcapsule configurations. The design and materials of construc-tion limit the temperature range of a specific instrument type.Some sheath materials can be damaged by use at hightemperatures in metal blocks or molten salt baths. Calibrationon the ITS-90 is required.7.2.2 Seco

46、ndary Reference PRTSecondary ReferencePRTs are specially manufactured PRTs designed to be suitablecalibration standards. These instruments are typically lessdelicate than SPRTs but have higher measurement uncertaintiesand narrower usage ranges. They are typically sheathed inmetal to allow immersion

47、directly into metal furnaces ormolten salt baths. Calibration on the ITS-90 is required.7.3 Fixed Point SystemsFixed point systems are requiredin the ITS-90 calibration of SPRTs. Very low uncertainties areattainable with these systems, but their complex proceduresand design criteria may limit their

48、application to other types ofthermometers. However, certain adaptations are suitable for thecalibration of industrial platinum resistance thermometers.7.3.1 TPW Cell and ApparatusThe triple point of watercell is a critical thermometric fixed point for calibration andcontrol of SPRTs.
