Method Statement for Instrumentation

 Insulation Resistance Test shall be performed only for power supply

wiring after continuity test. Megger tester of rated voltage 500 V
shall be used for testing. Power and control cables shall be tested
@ 250 V DC.
 Switches action shall be verified. Switch contact make or break can
be checked by multi meter. Pressure switch can be checked and
calibrated by using dead weight tester or monometer using dry air or
nitrogen as source of pressure.
 Indicator and gauge shall be adjusted at zero point and checked the
span.
 Actuator shall be checked by multi meter and by providing
temporary power for proper action.
 Temperature/Pressure Controller and Transmitter shall be calibrated
against standards at 0%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% of span prior to
installation, for rising as well as falling. Precision standards
calibrator shall be use for checking.
 Impulse tubes and instrument air lines shall be pressure tested.
3.3 Notice of Inspection and Testing
 Client and ADVANCED VISION CO. shall witness all the inspection
and test notice of readiness for inspection testing shall be given to
client, 2 days in advance prior to the date of witness.

per related drawing. Instrument shall bear TAG NUMBERS as
reference for proper location in the Control Panel.
 All instruments will be installed only if the location is secure, safe
and ready for installation.
 Mounting of instrument will be done according to vendor’s
procedure and recommendations and approved drawing.
