Application Note
MFT 4010 Multifunction Calibrator / HART
®
Communicator
The User: All technicians responsible for installing, configuring, commissioning,
calibrating and maintaining process industry conventional and HART transmitters
including Instrumentation and Electrical Shop Technicians, Instrument and Control Shop
Technicians, Maintenance Technicians
Applications: Initial pressure and temperature transmitter setup and check out, HART
communication and configuration, maintenance, calibration checks, documenting the
performance of conventional and HART transmitters, re-certification to NIST traceable
standards, loop checks, receiving device checks (mA dc, V dc, mV dc, ohms)
User activities: Typical daily activities include preventative maintenance, unscheduled
trouble shooting and maintenance, scheduled calibration and re-certifications, as found
and as left documentation, reconfiguration for process changes and short term “shut
downs” for change out of critical process equipment and re-fit of instrumentation and
controls.
Instrumentation need: Portable, accurate, NIST traceable calibration gear for
conventional and HART transmitters that is versatile and able to reduce the workload of
the instrument technician. HART communication interface for all HART device types
and HART trim commands for recalibration of HART pressure and temperature
transmitters. Instrument technicians need easy to use, multifunctional gear that enables
them to commission, maintain and replace instrumentation with the least amount of
equipment and complication.
Solution: MFT 4010 Multifunction Calibrator / HART Communicator
The modular MFT 4010 enables instrumentation customers from a wide variety of
process industries to customize the MFT to fit their measurement needs. The modular
calibrator provides flexibility / versatility in a NIST traceable calibrator that is not
available in competitive units. With three (3) module bays and voltage and current
measurement integral to the base unit, the MFT 4010 can cover a wide range of pressure,
temperature, voltage and current measurement and simulation requirements. HART
transmitter users will appreciate the built HART communication capability and
configuration features. The MFT 4010 will communicate with all HART device types
and provide convenient analog and digital trim commands needed to restore HART
pressure or temperature transmitter back in first class operating condition. There is no
need for a separate HART communicator or multimeter when using the MFT 4010.
Quick Cal and Smart Trim features plus full HART communication capability provide
users with time-saving features. The MFT 4010 has the right tool available for every job.
