10.3.1 Sensor calibration
In the course of their life cycle, pressure sensors
can
deviate, or drift,
from the original
pressure characteristic curve. This deviation is caused by physical factors and can be
corrected with a sensor calibration.
Absolute pressure sensors cannot be recalibrated.
Perform the sensor calibration. Adhere to the sequence indicated!
1. Apply the lower pressure value to the device.
2. Enter the value for the
Lower sensor trim
parameter. Application → Sensor → Sensor
calibration → Lower sensor trim
The value entered causes a parallel shift of the pressure characteristic in relation
to the current calibration.
3. Apply the upper pressure value to the device.
4. Enter the value for the
Upper sensor trim
parameter. Application → Sensor → Sensor
calibration → Upper sensor trim
The value entered causes a change in the slope or a parallel shift of the current
calibration curve.

Deviations caused by physical factors are also known as "Sensor drift".
