Zero verification and zero adjustment
All measuring instruments are calibrated in accordance with state-of-the-art technology.
Calibration takes place under reference conditions → 273. Therefore, a zero adjustment
in the field is generally not required.
Experience shows that zero adjustment is advisable only in special cases:
• To achieve maximum measurement accuracy even with low flow rates.
• Under extreme process or operating conditions (e.g. very high process temperatures or
very high-viscosity fluids).
• For gas applications with low pressure
To achieve the highest possible measurement accuracy at low flow rates, the
installation must protect the sensor from mechanical stresses during operation.
To get a representative zero point, ensure that:
• any flow in the device is prevented during the adjustment
• the process conditions (e.g. pressure, temperature) are stable and representative
