Pressure control for calibrating process control devices

A method of calibrating a positioner includes determining a pressure value corresponding to a particular state of an actuator, wherein the actuator is controlled by the positioner, and controlling a pressure within the actuator according to a set point pressure, wherein the set point pressure is bas...

Zusammenfassung:A method of calibrating a positioner includes determining a pressure value corresponding to a particular state of an actuator, wherein the actuator is controlled by the positioner, and controlling a pressure within the actuator according to a set point pressure, wherein the set point pressure is based on the pressure value such that the particular state of the actuator is maintained. The method further includes receiving a measured value indicating an actual pressure within the actuator, and determining a bias of the positioner based on the measured value and the set point pressure.
