Summary: | Temperature sensor calibration in the majority of measurement laboratories is performed on the ground of measurement procedures. The procedures specify the timespan for the temperature of the tested sensor to stabilize. In practice, the fact of time constant increase above expectations can be observed. This results from the method of operation, time of use, and level of contamination of individual sensors. The paper proposes a method to optimize the calibration process of resistance temperature sensors based on the measurement of the time constant and, on this basis, to determine the sensor stabilization time during calibration. |
