Summary of Guide4.1 The UUT is calibrated by determining the electrical resistance of its sensing element at one or more known temperaturescovering the temp

25、erature range of interest. The known temperatures may be established by means of fixed-point systems or byusing a reference thermometer. Either an SPRT or a PRT is recommended for use as the reference thermometer. However a liquidin glass (LIG) thermometer, thermistor, or thermocouple may be accepta

26、ble depending upon the temperature of calibration,required accuracy, or other considerations.4.2 The success of the calibration depends largely upon the ability of the UUT to come to thermal equilibrium with thecalibration temperature of interest (fixed point cell or comparison system) and upon accu

Instructions are included to guide the user in achieving thermal equilibrium and proper resistancemeasurement, including descriptions of apparatus and instrumentation.4 Mangum, B.

This guide includes limitedinstructions pertaining to the preparation of the UUT into a configuration that facilitates proper calibration.4.4

29、Proper evaluation of calibration uncertainties is critical for the result of a calibration to be useful. Therefore, a considerableportion of this guide is devoted to uncertainty budgets and the evaluation of uncertainties.5. Significance and Use5.1 This guide is intended to be used for verifying the

30、 resistance-temperature characteristicsrelationship of industrial platinumresistance thermometers that are intended to satisfy the requirements of Specification E1137/E1137M. It is intended to provide aconsistent method for calibration and uncertainty evaluation while still allowing the user some fl

31、exibility in the choice of apparatusand instrumentation. It is understood that the limits of uncertainty obtained depend in a large part upon the apparatus andinstrumentation used. Therefore, since this guide is not prescriptive in approach, it provides detailed instruction in uncertaintyevaluation

32、to accommodate the variety of apparatus and instrumentation that may be employed.5.2 This guide is intended primarily to satisfy applications requiring compliance to Specification E1137/E1137M. However, thetechniques described may be appropriate for applications where higher accuracy calibrations ar

33、e needed.5.3 Many applications require tolerances to be verified using a minimum test uncertainty ratio (TUR). This standard providesguidelines for evaluating uncertainties used to support TUR calculations.6. Sources of Error6.1 Uncertainties are present in all calibrations. Errors arise when the ef

34、fects of uncertainties are underestimated or omitted. Thepredominant sources of uncertainty are described in Section 12 and listed in Table 2.7. Apparatus7.1 Resistance Measuring InstrumentsThe choice of a specific instrument to use for measuring the UUT and referencethermometer resistance will depe

35、nd upon several factors. Some of these factors are ease of use, compatibility with computerizeddata acquisition systems, method of balancing, computation ability, etc. All of the instruments listed are commercially availablein high precision designs and are suitable for use. They require periodic li

36、nearity checks or periodic calibration. (Refer to AppendixX2 for detailed descriptions and schematics.) The accuracy of the resistance measurements directly impacts the accuracy of thetemperature measurement as shown in Eq 2.Accuracyt 5 AccuracySensitivity (2)where:Accuracyt = temperature accuracy a

38、e available. These instruments are available in models using either AC or DCexcitation. The linearity is typically based upon resistive or inductive dividers and is generally quite stable over time. Modernbridges are convenient automatic balancing instruments but manual balancing types are also suit

39、able. These instruments typicallyrequire external reference resistors and do not perform temperature calculations.7.1.2 Digital Thermometer ReadoutDigital instruments designed specifically to measure resistance thermometers areavailable. Modern versions function essentially as automatic potentiomete

Precision instruments with linearity specifications ranging from 20 ppm of indication to 1 ppm of indication and with 612 to812 digit resolution are commercially available. Some models have extensive internal computation capability, perfor

Periodic calibration is required.7.1.3 Digital Multimeter (DMM)Digital multimeters are convenient direct indication instruments typically able to indicate inresistance or voltage. Some models have extensive internal computation ability, performing b

42、oth temperature and statisticalcalculations. The use of DC offset compensation is recommended. Caution must be exercised to ensure that the excitation currentis appropriate for the UUT and reference thermometer to avoid excessive self-heating. Periodic calibration is required.7.1.4 Reference Resisto

43、rReference resistors are specially manufactured resistors designeddesigned and manufactured to bestable over long periods of time. Typically, they have significant temperature coefficients of resistance and require maintenance ina temperature enclosed air or oil bath. Some have inductive and capacit

44、ive characteristics that limit their suitability for use withAC bridges. Periodic calibration (yearly or semi yearly)semi-yearly) calibration is required. Resistors (AC or DC) are required tomatch the type of measurement (AC or DC) system in use.7.2 Reference ThermometersThe choice of a specific ins

45、trument to use as the reference thermometer will depend upon severalfactors, including the uncertainty desired, temperature range of interest, compatibility with existing instrumentation and apparatus,expertise of staff, cost limitations, etc. All of the instruments listed are commercially available

46、 in various levels of precision andE2593 123stability and may be suitable for use. They all require calibration. The frequency of calibration depends a great deal upon themanner (care) in which they are used and the uncertainty required in use.7.2.1 SPRTSPRTs are the most accurate reference thermome

47、ters available and are used in defining the ITS-90 fromapproximately 260C to 962C. The SPRT sensing element is made from nominally pure platinum and is supported essentiallystrain-free. These instruments are extremely delicate and are easily damaged by mechanical shock. They are available sheathed i

48、nglass or metal and in long stem and capsule configurations. The design and materials of construction limit the temperature rangeof a specific instrument type. Some sheath materials can be damaged by use at high temperatures in metal blocks or molten saltbaths. Calibration on the ITS-90 is required.

49、7.2.2 Secondary Reference PRTSecondary Reference PRTs are specially manufactured PRTs designed to be suitablecalibration standards. These instruments are typically less delicate than SPRTs but have higher measurement uncertainties andnarrower usage ranges. They are typically sheathed in metal to allow immersion directly into metal furnaces or molten salt baths.Calibration on the ITS-90 is required.7.3 Fixed Point SystemsFixed point systems are required in the ITS-90 calibration of SPRTs. Very low uncertainties areattainable with
