Thermocouple

1.0 Scope

This procedure provides guidelines for calibration of Thermocouple.

2.0 Standard Equipment

2.1 Temperature Calibrator and Process Calibrator with a valid certificate of calibration
traceable to international standard in accordance with an industrial code or a regulation
shall be used as a standard for calibration.
2.2 The reference standard shall be kept under controlled environmental conditions e.g. dust
free environment and Lab. temperature 22°C ± 3°C. Lab Humidity 60%RH ± 20%RH.

3.0 Preliminary Operations

3.1 The details of Thermocouple received for calibration shall be entered in the Calibration
Job Form (Form: Call/001).
3.2 It shall be ensured that the Sensor of Thermocouple has no physical defect.
3.3 The Thermocouple shall be inspected and marked () in relevant block of equipment’s
primary inspection section of Calibration Data Sheet (Form: Call/013).

4.0 Calibration Procedure

4.1 The Thermocouple to be calibrated shall be maintained at same place of standard

(Temperature Calibrator & Process Calibrator) for 03 hours minimum.
4.2 Insert the Thermocouple into Temperature calibrator Thermo Well and connect the
output of Thermocouple to process calibrator.
4.3 Thermocouple shall be exercised 2 to 3 times to full range.
4.4 The Thermocouple shall be checked at approximately 20%, 40%, 60% and 80% of full
range.
4.5 The relevant section of Calibration Data Sheet (Form: Call/013) shall be marked.
4.6 The readings of Thermocouple shall be recorded in measured value column against the
standard readings in set value column of Calibration Data Sheet (Form: Call/013).
4.7 After completion of calibration the Thermocouple and the equipment should be secured.
