What is use of calibration pot?

Calibration Pots provide an accurate pump calibration of higher pump flow rates. The gauge is installed between the suction side of the chemical pump and the tank. the pump rate is checked by closing the valve between the tank and gauge and observing the level change in the gauge for one minute.

What is calibration pot?

A calibration pot is a simple and economical way of measuring a specific volume. It is placed vertically on the suction pipe (as close as possible to the pump) is used to measure and control the dosing pump flow rate in line with its installation conditions and the properties of the fluid being dosed.

How do you calibrate a pot?

Calibration pot is usually installed on suction site of dosing pump. It should be equipped with isolated valves to enable calibration directly from calibration pot and after calibration switch over to normal flow direction from chemical feed tank.

How do you calibrate a pump?

Calibration Procedure

  1. Calculate the capacity of the pump at the speed and stroke rate at which the test will be run.
  2. Fill the calibration cylinder with the product that the pump is feeding.
  3. Record the starting level of the calibration cylinder.
  4. Run the pump for the desired amount of time, generally 0.5 – 1.0 minute.

What is pump calibration?

Calibration pumps are used for testing and calibrating pressure instruments. A calibration hand pump used with a reference pressure gauge has the advantage of minimizing the cost and complexity of pressure calibration.

What is gauge calibration?

Calibration is the procedure of comparing a reference with a known error margin against a device (for example a pressure gauge) under test. The reference measurement instrument must be more accurate than the pressure gauge to be calibrated, and it must also be traceable.

What do we use for calibration of the cylinder?

Calibrating a TC Cylinder Fill the graduated cylinder to 20 or 25 percent of its capacity with distilled water. The liquid in the cylinder will for a U-shape called a meniscus. The proper volume reading is taken at the bottom of the U.

What are calibration standards?

Calibration standards are devices that are compared against less accurate devices to verify the performance of the less accurate devices.

What is the purpose of the calibration?

The goal of calibration is to minimise any measurement uncertainty by ensuring the accuracy of test equipment. Calibration quantifies and controls errors or uncertainties within measurement processes to an acceptable level.
