Summary of Guide4.1 The UUT is calibrated by determining th

23、e electricalresistance of its sensing element at one or more knowntemperatures 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 referencetherm

24、ometer. However a liquid in glass (LIG) thermometer,thermistor, or thermocouple 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

25、thecalibration temperature of interest (fixed point cell or compari-son system) 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 apparat

26、usand instrumentation.4.3 Industrial platinum resistance thermometers are avail-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 uncertaint

27、ies is criticalfor the result of a calibration to be useful. Therefore, aconsiderable portion of this guide is devoted to uncertaintybudgets and the evaluation of uncertainties.5. Significance and Use5.1 This guide is used for verifying the resistance-temperature characteristics of industrial platin

28、um resistancethermometers that are intended to satisfy the requirements ofSpecification E1137/E1137M. 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

29、 the limitsof uncertainty obtained depend in a large part upon theapparatus 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.

30、5.2 This guide is intended primarily to satisfy applicationsrequiring compliance to Specification E1137/E1137M. How-ever, the techniques described may be appropriate for applica-tions where higher accuracy calibrations are needed.5.3 Many applications require tolerances to be verifiedusing a minimum

31、 test uncertainty ratio (TUR). This standardprovides guidelines for evaluating uncertainties used to supportTUR calculations.6. Sources of Error6.1 Uncertainties are present in all calibrations. Errors arisewhen the effects of uncertainties are underestimated or omitted.The predominant sources of un

32、certainty 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 are ease of use, compatibility with co

33、mputer-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.4Mangum, B.

Thelinearity is typically based upon resistive or inductive dividersand is generally quite stable over time. Modern bridges areconvenient automatic balancing instruments but manual bal-ancing t

37、ypes 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 versions function essentially as auto

38、maticpotentiometers 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 have extensive internal computation cap

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 extensiveinternal computation ability

40、, 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 calibra-tion is required.7.1.4 Refe

41、rence 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 have inductive and capacitivecharacter

42、istics 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 specificinstrument to use as the reference thermom

43、eter 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 invarious levels of precision and st

44、ability 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 available and are used in defining the ITS

45、-90 fromapproximately 260C to 962C. The SPRT sensing element ismade from nominally pure platinum and is supported essen-tially strain-free. These instruments are extremely delicate andare easily damaged by mechanical shock. They are availablesheathed in glass or metal and in long stem and capsulecon

46、figurations. The design and materials of construction limitthe temperature range of a specific instrument type. Somesheath materials can be damaged by use at high temperatures inmetal blocks or molten salt baths. Calibration on the ITS-90 isrequired.7.2.2 Secondary Reference PRTSecondary ReferencePR

47、Ts 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 directly into metal furnaces ormolten sa

48、lt 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 application to other types ofthermometer

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. These devices can be useful in the calibrationof industrial resistance thermometers but typically are not usedbecause of limited throughput capabilities.
