11.5 Calibration
It is recommended to perform a calibration once a year to assure the measuring
accuracy.
Required instruments:
DC Voltage Standard: YOKOGAWA Model 2552 or equivalent.
Decade Resistance Box: YOKOGAWA Model 2793-01 or equivalent.
Calibration procedure:
1 Connect the calibration instrument to the input terminals of the recorder as shown in
figures 11.3, 4 , 5 or 6 and allow the recorder to warm up for at least 30 minutes.
Allow the instrument to warm up according to its specifications.
2 Check that the ambient temperature and humidity are within Normal Operating
Conditions (see chapter 10 ‘General Specifications’).
3 Apply an input corresponding to 0, 50 and 100 percentage of the entered setting range,
and calculate errors from the readings on the display.
4 If the error is at any point outside the accuracy limits (for accuracies, see chapter 10
‘General Specifications’), contact your nearest Sales & Service Office. Addresses may
be found on the back cover of this manual.
NOTE For a TC input, it is necessary to measure the temperature of the input terminals, and
add a voltage corresponding to the reference temperature.
