Calibration White Paper Improving power plant performance calibration process WORLD-CLASS CALIBRATION SOLUTIONS

Improving power plant performance with a modern calibration process - 2

BEAMEX Calibration White Paper Improving power plant performance with a modern calibration process alibration is an essential activity in power plants and there are various reasons to establish a proper calibration process. Improving power plant efficiency is one obvious reason in order to ensure profitability, while proper calibration is also vitally important for safety. Furthermore, correctly calibrated emission monitoring equipment is essential in regulated areas. Various national and international regulations and standards require certain calibrations to be performed. Naturally, the...

Improving power plant performance with a modern calibration process - 3

BEAMEX Calibration White Paper The automated calibration solution should guide the workforce, which may not be composed of specialists in metrology, through the calibration work in a metrologically correct way. Regulations, emissions and invoicing-related measurements There are regulations for continuous emissions monitoring systems in power plants. Depending on the plant type there may be series of gas analyzers which monitor the flue gas for example for; sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, hydrogen chloride, airborne particles and organic compounds, just to...

BEAMEX Calibration White Paper determining Pass/Fail status. Results may be typed into an electronic database, if one exists, and the confirmation that the work has been performed is also manually entered into a computerized maintenance management system (CMMS). So in short, an outdated legacy calibration process can be labor intensive, may result is poor calibration accuracy, generate a lot of paperwork and be prone to errors related to manual data entry. implement a modern calibration process are to improve calibration efficiency, save costs, obtain higher quality calibrations and be...

Improving power plant performance with a modern calibration process - 5

BEAMEX Calibration White Paper Although implementing a new calibration process is far smaller in scope than implementing, for example, a new ERP system, there are still many similarities. The implementation should start with establishing the project framework in order to have a common understanding of the project targets, specify the roles of the parties in the project team and steering group, establish management rules, determine testing and acceptance criteria. This blueprinting process is an important phase where the documentation of the current process (as it is) and the target process...
