Calibrating the 4-20 mA Proportional Output

You must calibrate the speed switch if the standard proportional output of 4 to 20
mA is changed to :

t

0–5 Vdc using switch C1, or

t

0–10 Vdc using switch C2

To calibrate the new proportional output

1

Attach a digital voltmeter to terminals 9 (–) & 10 (+).

2

Apply 10% of the full-scale frequency to input terminals 5 (+), 6 (–).

3

Adjust the PROP OUT ZERO adjust potentiometer (See Fig. 4-10,
below) to yield 10% of full-scale proportional output on the
voltmeter.

4

Apply 100% of full-scale frequency to terminals 5 (+) & 6 (–).

5

Turn PROP OUT SPAN adjust potentiometer (See example below)
to yield 100% of full-scale proportional output on the voltmeter .

6

Repeat steps 2, 3, 4, and 5 three or four times to assure accuracy.

The PROP OUT

ZERO and PROP OUT SPAN
adjustments are located in
the upper right corner
under the top plate of the
SST-2000A/H.

EXAMPLE: A unit calibrated for 0–500 Hz input is being
recalibrated to 0-10 Vdc proportional output (from 4–20
mAdc proportional output).

Apply 10% of full-scale (50 Hz) to terminals 5 (+) & 6 (–).

Adjust PROP OUT SPAN adjust potentiometer to yield
1.000 Vdc on the voltmeter.

Apply full-scale frequency (500 Hz) to terminals 5 (+) &
6 (–).

Turn PROP OUT ZERO adjust potentiometer to yield 10.00
Vdc.

Repeat 3 or 4 times for accuracy.
