    METHOD STATEMENT

    FOR
    INSTRUMENT LOOP CHECKING

    1. LOOP TEST PROCEDURE OF EACH INSTRUMENT

    a. Pressure Transmitter Loop:


    Verify the installation as per hookup and also the bench calibration report.
    Verify the cable termination as per the inter connection drawing and for cable megger reports.
    Execute the continuity check.
    Check and verify the PLC Configuration for applicable points.
    Power on circuit and verify the Transmitter Tag No. and range is as per latest Data sheet, by
    using HART communicator.
    Apply the pressure for Digital Smart Transmitters by using test equipment (hand pump) 0, 25,
    50, 75 and 100% of the instrument range simulation to check the transmitter response at PLC.
    Confirm / verify the corresponding reading in the PLC / Integral indicator and at remote
    indicator if applicable.
    For smart transmitters case (HART) communicator shall be used for simulation purpose instead
    of hand pump.
    For Foundation Field bus case (FF) communicator shall be used for simulation purpose instead
    of hand pump.
    For Non- smart transmitters case (loop simulator i.e. 4~20 mA) source to be used for simulation
    purpose instead of hand pump.
    Alarms function (in PLC) shall be checked by Simulating /Verifying the required signal.

    b. Level Transmitter Loop (GWR TYPE):


    Verify the installation as per hookup.
    Verify the cable termination as per the inter connection drawing and for cable megger reports.
    Execute the continuity check.
    Check and verify the PLC Configuration for applicable points.
    Power on circuit and verify the transmitter range is as per latest Data sheet.
    The tank is made emptied. The value of 0% is set by excluding the offset value from the bottom
    of the tank. The value is set by using either the HART Communicator or at the Level
    Transmitter. For Level Transmitter with Foundation Field bus FF Communicator is used.
    The value of 100% is set by HART communicator or at the Level Transmitter when the tank is
    fully filled. The value is set by using either the HART Communicator or at the Level
    Transmitter. For Level Transmitter with Foundation Field bus FF Communicator is used.
    For smart transmitters case (HART) communicator shall be used for simulation purpose.
    For Foundation Field bus case (FF) communicator shall be used for simulation purpose.

    c. Flow Transmitter Loop (Magnetic Flow Meter):


    Verify the installation as per hookup and also the bench calibration report.
    Verify the cable termination as per the inter connection drawing and for cable megger reports.
    Execute the continuity check.
    Check and verify the PLC Configuration for applicable points.

    communicator.
    For smart transmitters case (HART) communicator shall be used for simulation purpose instead
    of hand pump.

    transformer.
    All the above-mentioned steps can be carried out without removing the pad lock on the MCC
    unit breakers, if possible.
