15. Calibration_ST 700 Basic Transmitter
15.1 Recommendations for Transmitter Calibration
The ST 700 Basic Transmitter does not require periodic calibration to maintain accuracy. Typically,
calibration of a process-connected Transmitter will degrade, rather than augment the capability of a
smart Transmitter. For this reason, it is recommended that a Transmitter be removed from service
before calibration. Moreover, calibration will be accomplished in a controlled, laboratory-type
environment, using certified precision equipment.
15.2 Calibration Procedures
For a transmitter operating in analog mode, you must calibrate its output signal measurement range
using any compatible hand-held communicator or a local display.
One calibration option is to use the Honeywell Smart Field Communicator (SFC). Refer to the Smart
Field Communicator Operating Guide, Document # 34-ST-11-14 for calibration procedures.
Calibration information and procedures for a Transmitter operating in the HART/DE mode are
provided in the ST 700 Series HART/DE Option User's Manual, Document # 34-25-25-47.
