Answer / aftab ahmed mazari

It seems that transmitter low side leg is leaking, or low
side is not being fully condensing.
Please chck low leg fittings, connections and if ok. Then
check transmitter high side and low side pressures with the
help of digital pressure gauge. May be transmitter low side
any problem.When you calibrate tranmitter workshop, also
apply pressure to its low side, indication should go down
to confirm that low side is ok.

Answer / yomama

The impulse tubes must be filled with process fluid or fill
fluid such as glycol. Additionally the specific gravity of
the fill fluid must be calculated in reference to the
process fluid being measured

Glycerin (Specific Gravity=1.26) for the impulse tubes a
correction must be made.

DP span of 100”= physical height difference of impulse tubes
on vessel

SG of fluid being measured (Oil = 0.68)

Glycerin filled tubes (SG = 1.26)

Since the Low Pressure Leg will be filled with Glycerin we
multiply the span by the SG of the Fill Fluid

100” x 1.26 = 126” so the Lower Range value will be -126”
Span will be the LRV – (SG of fluid) x ( tank Level span) = 68”

-126” + 68” = -58”
-126 LRV
-58 URV

Answer / anwer

an instrument calibration range should be 60-80% and another
condition is range shall be more than max value.

Answer / kakhlaq

re-check the transmitter range, process connections, if
this arrangement is wet leg type then check that the leg is
filled with liquid.
