3.6.7 Fluid Speed of Sound Calibration
In order to perform Speed of sound (SOS) calibration it’s necessary to install Vitality
TM
PC Software
application ver. 1.5.0 or later. SOS calibration procedure is described in the CAL-TRIM-TEST section of Vitality
Help manual which can be launched from application’s main menu.
The XMT1000 can calibrate the fluid speed of sound (SOS) after installation, provided the operator knows the
fluid SOS under the current flow conditions. The measured fluid SOS should be within the accuracy
specification after following the standard installation procedures. This SOS calibration is for fine-tuning of
the XMT1000 meter under the on-site installation conditions and maintaining the high accuracy
performance.
3.6.7a Fluid SOS calibration procedure
SOS calibration will be done on each channel. After calibration, the measured SOS from each channel, and
the composite channel, shall read within ±1 ft/s (or 0.3 m/s) of expected value. Calibrate the fluid SOS as per
below procedure.
Calibration Procedure:
1. Open BHGE Vitality. Click on
[Connect].
2. Select instrument model and communication Port.
