Coriolis Meter Calibration by Compact Procedure (With Density) English Version

The document outlines the procedure for calibrating a Coriolis meter against a compact prover according to API standards. It involves connecting the compact prover and meter, performing 5 runs at 3 flowrates to check repeatability and accuracy, adjusting the linear factor if needed, and inputting the new factor if calibration is successful. Diagrams show the proving setup and process flowchart.

Coriolis meter calibration against compact prover procedure

(Ref. API Standard Chapter 4.3 and 12)


Rev. 01 : January 6, 2020 Flowlab & Service Co., Ltd. Page 1 of 3

1. PREPARE EQUIPMENT
1.1 Compact prover (Small Volume Prover) 1 EA
1.2 Flexible hose 2 EA
1.3 Digital Invarod Thermometer 1 EA

2. PROVING PROCEDURE
2.1 Connect compact prover within proving connection at metering skid.
2.2 Open prover inlet valve for fill product into compact prover for leak test.
2.3 Open prover outlet valve until pressure balance and close bypass valve carefully.
2.4 Connect power supply plug and analog signal plug.
2.5 On hydralic pump piston will be move to standby position for waiting "Run"
Command from Flow Computer.
2.6 Connect digital signal plug for meter proving.
2.7 Use digital thermometer for measure temperature at invarod tube of compact prover.
Update parameter of Flow Computer before meter proving.
2.8 Setup proving flowrate for linear factor and setup output signal to volume mode.
2.9 Setup confirm linear factor at 90%, 100% (Normal Flow) and 110% of Normal flowrate.
2.10 Start "Run" command proving from flow computer then compact prover will be start
automatic proving follow up programable. (5 Pass x 3 Good Consecutive Run)
2.11 Flow computer will be meter proving process and print out meter proving report
follow up ;
- %Repeatability must be within 0.05% (Ref. follow up API Chapter 4.3)
(If %Repeatability more than 0.05% should be coriolis meter checking)
- %Accuracy must be within +/- 0.10% (Ref. follow up API Chapter 4.3)
Formular ; %Accuracy = [ Meter Factor - 1 ] x 100

2.12 If %Accuracy within +/- 0.10% then confirm meter proving @ 90% and 110% of
Normal Flow and calculate linearity of meter from formular ;
Formular ; %Linearity = { [M.F.(max) - M.F.(min) ] / M.F.(Average) } x 100

2.13 If %Accuracy morn than +/- 0.10% must be linear factor proving follow up flowrate
setting.
2.14 Check %Repeatability and %Accuracy value within specification or not.
If not, Should be operate follow up item 2.10 - 2.13 again.
2.15 After meter proving finish, Open bypass valve and OFF hydralic pump and close
Inlet and Outlet valve at proving connection.
2.16 Open drain valve and drain product without compact prover after compact prover
product empty and close drain valve.
2.17 Disconnect flexible hose out proving connection and disconnect power , analog ,
and Digital Signal Plug.
2.18 Input meter factor value at normal flowrate to flow computer.
