Electrical & Instrumentation Calibration & Check-Out

Since many new processing plants install state-of-the-art control systems such as DeltaVTM, commissioning and startup include such activities as:

• Check hardware, including wiring, to ensure that each motor starts from the correct motor control center (MCC)
• Check software addressing to ensure each motor & instrument responds from the correct icon on the display
• Start all pieces of equipment
• Check power supply & functionality
• Check safety & software interlock sequences using
  • PEHTC, written documentation and/or
  • Client-written documentation reviewed by PEHTC
• Perform system trial runs with water or sacrificial product
• Tune process control loops, such as temperature, pressure, flow
• Train operators
• Perform turn-over
