24、estructive tests described in these test meth-ods may be applied to thermometers that can be subsequentlysold or used; other destructive tests may preclude the sale oruse of the test article because of damage that the test mayproduce.PROCEDURES5. Insulation Resistance Test5.1 ScopeThe insulation res

25、istance between the thermom-eter element with its connecting wires and its external shield,case or means for mounting, should be sufficient to preventsignificant electrical shunting or ground loop current in themeasurement circuit, or any circuit failure if the excitationsource is grounded. This tes

26、t assumes that the thermometer hasa metallic or other electrically conductive sheath or housing.The most probable factors that contribute to insulation failureare contamination, typically from moisture, and mechanicalbreakdown due to physical damage to the device. Most ceramicoxide insulation absorb

27、s moisture. This moisture is expected tomigrate inside the thermometer, depending upon the tempera-ture condition of use, and to cause variations in the insulationresistance. Test conditions for insulation resistance shouldtherefore approximate the most severe conditions of probableuse and shall be

28、specified as a minimum at a specifictemperature, humidity, pressure and test voltage. It is recom-mended that insulation resistance be measured using forwardand reversed polarity on applied dc voltages. The test methodscustomarily applied with the test article at room temperaturemay also be employed

29、 to determine the insulation resistance attemperatures up to the rated application temperature for theresistance thermometer. This is intended to be a non-destructive test.5.1.1 The insulation resistance, as measured between thelead wires and case, does not represent the shunt resistance inparallel

30、with the sensing element. Therefore, this test shouldnot be used to estimate temperature measurement errors causedby inadequate insulation resistance across the sensing element.5.2 Apparatus:5.2.1 Because the insulation resistance is to be measured inconjunction with other tests, the thermometer sha

31、ll be mountedas required for these tests.5.2.2 Any equipment made for the purpose of insulationresistance testing shall be capable of measuring a resistance ofat least 10 gigohms (1010V) at the specified test voltage.(WarningSome instruments designed for insulation resis-tance testing are capable of

32、 producing lethal voltages (100 V orgreater) at their measuring terminals. Such instruments shouldhave warning labels and used only by supervised and welltrained personnel.)5.3 Measurement Procedure:5.3.1 Make check measurements on a reference resistor of10 gigohms (1010V). Check the measurement ins

33、trument to65 % at the required minimum insulation resistance using acertified reference resistor. These results should accompany thetest report on the platinum resistance thermometer (PRT). Forexample: When testing a PRT with a specified 100 megohm(108V) minimum insulation resistance, the meter shou

34、ld betested with a resistor that has a certified resistance of 100megohms 65%.5.3.2 Make insulation resistance measurements between theconnecting wires and the shield or case, (1) before thethermometer is subjected to the conditions of any concurrenttest (calibration, pressure, vibration), (2) durin

35、g the test, and(3) immediately after the thermometer has returned to ambientconditions. All measured values of insulation resistance foreach test condition shall exceed the minimum specified value.E644 0925.3.3 Apply the specified measuring voltage between thejoined connecting wires and the thermome

36、ter sheath or be-tween circuits that are intended to be isolated. Take measure-ments with normal and reversed polarity and record the lowerreading. Take the reading within 10 s of voltage application.Since only minimum values of insulation resistance are ofconcern, measurement accuracy need only be

37、sufficient toensure that the minimum requirement is met. Insulation resis-tance measurements made during vibration require a highspeed indicating device, such as an oscilloscope, to detect rapidtransient changes in resistance.5.4 The repeatability of the measurements value is ex-pected to be 65 % an

38、d the reproducibility 610 %. SeeAppendix X4 for the results of round robin testing used todetermine the repeatability and reproducibility of this test.6. Thermometer Calibration6.1 ScopeThis test method covers recommended ways ofcalibrating industrial resistance thermometers. Methods com-mon to most

39、 calibrations will be described, but the testmethods presented do not usually test the thermometer underthe actual conditions of use. The heat transfer conditions canvary widely, depending upon the medium, immersion length,rate of flow of the medium, etc. These and other conditionsshould be carefull

40、y evaluated before installing a thermometerfor calibration or for temperature measurement. A resistancethermometer can be calibrated by using the comparison methodor the fixed-point method, or both. The calibration results maybe used to assess interchangeability, to establish a uniqueresistance-temp

41、erature relationship for the thermometer undertest, or to verify conformance to a standard. In calibration tests,care should be taken to minimize thermal shock to thethermometer when inserting it into a heated or cooled environ-ment, or when withdrawing it from a furnace or heated bath.Transitions s

42、hould be made slowly, preheating or pre-coolingthe thermometer when possible. This test is intended to be anon-destructive test. However, calibration of a thermometer toa higher temperature than it has previously experienced maychange its calibration at lower temperatures. Resistances takenat ascend

43、ing temperatures should be compared with thosetaken at descending temperatures to detect any change in thethermometers characteristics (see Section 16, Thermal Hys-teresis).6.2 Calibration Methods:6.2.1 Comparison MethodThis method consists of mea-suring the resistance of the test thermometer in an

44、isothermalmedium, the temperature of which is determined by a cali-brated reference thermometer. The reference thermometer maybe a thermocouple, a liquid-in-glass thermometer, a resistancethermometer, or another thermometer of sufficient accuracythat has been calibrated by an approved method.6.2.2 F

45、ixed-Point MethodThis method consists of mea-suring the resistance of the thermometer at the temperaturedefined by the equilibrium state between different phases of apure substance or a mixture of pure substances. Each fixedpoint provides a calibration of the test thermometer at only onetemperature

46、defined by suitable equilibrium phases. The tem-perature is an intrinsic property of a properly specified equi-librium state of a substance, such as the freezing point at 1 atm.The temperature of some fixed-point devices can be repeated to60.1 mC or better.6.3 Apparatus and Procedure:6.3.1 Ice-Point

47、 Bath The most widely used and simplestfixed point is the ice-point. The ice point (0 C) may berealized with an error of less than 0.01 C if properly preparedand used. Significantly greater errors may be realized if certainconditions exist. Users of this test method are referred toPractice E563 whic

48、h contains a more detailed discussion as tothe proper preparation and use of ice point baths.6.3.2 Freezing Points In addition to the ice-point bath, thefreezing-point temperature of various substances can be usedas fixed points. The metal freezing point materials identified inGuide E1502 are those

49、most commonly employed.6.3.3 Triple Point of WaterThe triple point of water is acommonly used thermometric fixed point used for calibratingthermometers. To accurately realize the triple point of water, atriple point of water cell is used. This cell must be prepared andhandled in a specific manner. The user is directed to GuideE1750 for the preparation and use of water triple point cells.6.3.4 Fluid Baths Control the temperature of fluid bathsby adjusting the amount of heating or cooling while agitatingthe bath fluid. Determine the amount of heating or cooling
