    This document discusses instrument calibration and typical errors that can occur. It covers calibrating pressure and temperature transmitters. There are four main types of calibration errors discussed: zero shift, span shift, linearity, and hysteresis errors. Zero shift errors affect all points equally, while span shift errors have unequal effects. Linearity errors relate to non-straight line behavior that can't be fixed by normal calibration adjustments. Hysteresis errors occur when the instrument responds differently to increasing versus decreasing inputs.

    CALIBRATION – TYPICAL ERRORS

    Zero shift calibration error - This error Span shift calibration error- This error’s
    affects all calibration points equally, effect is unequal at different points
    creating the same percentage of error throughout the range  moving the
    across the entire range  moving the “span” adjustment
    “zero” adjustment
    CALIBRATION – TYPICAL ERRORS

    Linearity calibration error - This type of error does Hysteresis calibration error - Occurs when the
    not directly relate to a shift in either zero (b) or instrument responds differently to an increasing
    span (m) because the input compared to a decreasing input  cannot
    slope-intercept equation only describes straight be rectified by simply making calibration
    lines  The behavior of a linearity adjustment is adjustments to the instrument –
    unique to each model of instrument, and so you one must usually replace defective components
    must consult the manufacturer’s documentation or correct coupling problems within the instrument
    mechanism.
