I&E Track: Setting Up a SIF Pressure Transmitter

Module 2 Est. 2.5 h · estimate · draft

Lesson 2-IAudience: I&EPrerequisites: Lessons 2-1 to 2-4DRAFT · unverified

What you'll be able to do

  • Set up equipment, classification and measuring points for a safety instrumented function (SIF) transmitter
  • Record as-found and as-left readings

Why it matters in the plant

A transmitter's record has to hold the evidence used to review its proof-test interval [S7]. The transmitter is a made-up example.

Steps and transactions

1Create the transmitter equipment

Create the equipment record and assign it to its FL. Example data only.

Sources public t-code catalogs

2Classify it

Assign characteristics such as range and SIL Unverified.

3Add the as-found error measuring point

Define a measuring point for as-found error.

4Record calibration results

Enter as-found and as-left values in a measurement document or during confirmation, and review the trend later.

Common mistakes

  • Not recording as-found values: interval reviews lose their evidence [S7].

Check your understanding

  1. Which transaction assigns SIL or range characteristics?
  2. Which measuring point does the lesson add?
  3. Why keep as-found and as-left history?

Answer key

  1. CL20N [map K] Unverified
  2. As-found error [map B]
  3. To review proof-test intervals with operating data [S7]
