6.14.1 Optimizing continuous SMART Meter Verification
Example
For continuous SMART Meter Verification, there is only one test criteria value to configure, and it
will be used for all flow conditions. The factory default is set to five percent to minimize the
potential for false failures under empty pipe conditions. For best results, set the criteria to match
the maximum value of the three test criteria set during manual meter verification (no flow,
flowing full, and empty pipe).
For example, a plant might set the following manual meter verification test criteria: two percent
for no flow, three percent for flowing full, and four percent for empty pipe. In this case, the
maximum test criterion is four percent, so the test criteria for continuous SMART Meter
Verification should be set to four percent. If the tolerance band is set too tightly, under empty
pipe conditions or noisy flowing conditions, a false failure of the transmitter test may occur.
