LOOP TEST PROCEDURE OF EACH INSTRUMENT

a. Pressure Transmitter Loop:
Verify the installation as per hookup and also the bench calibration report.
Verify the cable termination as per the inter connection drawing and for cable
megger reports.
Execute the continuity check.
Check and verify the DCS Configuration for applicable points.
Power on circuit and verify the Transmitter Tag No. and range is as per latest Data
sheet, by using HART communicator.
Apply the pressure for Digital Smart Transmitters by using test equipment (hand
pump) 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100% of the instrument range simulation to check the
transmitter response at DCS.
Confirm / verify the corresponding reading in the DCS / Integral indicator and at
remote indicator if applicable.
For smart transmitters case (HART) communicator shall be used for simulation
purpose instead of hand pump.
For Foundation Field bus case (FF) communicator shall be used for simulation
purpose instead of hand pump.
For Non- smart transmitters case (loop simulator i.e. 4~20 mA) source to be used
for simulation purpose instead of hand pump.
Alarms function (in DCS) shall be checked by Simulating /Verifying the required
signal.

b. Level Transmitter Loop (GWR TYPE):

Verify the installation as per hookup.
Verify the cable termination as per the inter connection drawing and for cable
megger reports.
Execute the continuity check.
Check and verify the DCS Configuration for applicable points.
Power on circuit and verify the transmitter range is as per latest Data sheet.
The tank is made emptied. The value of 0% is set by excluding the offset value
from the bottom of the tank. The value is set by using either the HART
Communicator or at the Level Transmitter. For Level Transmitter with Foundation
Field bus FF Communicator is used.
The value of 100% is set by HART communicator or at the Level Transmitter when
the tank is fully filled. The value is set by using either the HART Communicator or
at the Level Transmitter. For Level Transmitter with Foundation Field bus FF
Communicator is used.
For smart transmitters case (HART) communicator shall be used for simulation
purpose.
For Foundation Field bus case (FF) communicator shall be used for simulation
purpose.

c. Gas Detector/ Beacon/Horn

Check and verify the DCS configuration for applicable points.
Precede the calibration of gas detector by introducing the applicable gas for H2S
 and LEL.
Apply the magnet for 0% and verify the status at gas detector display/DCS.
Apply 50% and 100% to gas detector and verify the status at gas detector
display /DCS.
Check the Beacon status at high alarm condition.
Check the Horn status at high alarm condition.

d. Switches Loops:
Check and verify the DCS configuration for applicable points.
Simulate the contact operation (Make/Break) at the switch terminal block and
verify the status in the DCS.
Hand switches, Start / Stop, Open / Close hand switches shall be checked by
operating the switch mechanism.
