- Book Synopsis
- Perform reliable instrument calibrations with proven techniques and ISA standards Process instrument calibration requires precision, documentation, and adherence to established standards. Calibration: A Technician's Guide, Second Edition, delivers systematic procedures for the calibration tasks the technicians perform most frequently. Written by experienced control system professionals with backgrounds spanning pharmaceutical, oil and gas, and cell therapy industries, this updated edition aligns with the ISA-RP105.00.01-2017 recommendations. This edition covers terminology, bench versus field calibration, loop versus individual instrument calibration, instrument classification systems, and documentation requirements. Specific techniques address temperature, pressure, level, flow, final control, and analytical instrumentation. Each chapter includes questions and answers to reinforce the concepts presented and prepare readers for ISA Certified Control Systems Technician¬ (CCST¬) certification at all three levels. The book also includes: Sample P&IDs, loop diagrams, specification sheets, and calibration procedures in an extensive appendix for immediate reference Conversion tables and reference data that are essential for accurate calculations during field and bench calibration procedures A structured learning format with chapter questions supporting CCST certification preparation at Levels I, II, and III Coverage of instrument classification systems and documentation practices aligned with ISA-RP105.00.01-2017 Techniques for calibrating temperature, pressure, level, flow, final control, and analytical instruments used in process facilities Whether you perform calibrations, supervise technicians, or are preparing for CCST certification, this book provides the procedural foundation and reference materials you need. Students studying instrumentation will find it equally valuable as a classroom resource covering industry-standard calibration practices.
