what is hot loop check and cold loop check.
Answer Posted / guest
A Cold Loop check is cold because it is done without
powering the loop.
A cold check consists of checking wire continuity from the
field instrument through junction boxes and through DCS/PLC
marshalling panel terminals to the control panel. Once
continuity has been confirmed, then a Hot Loop Check is
performed on the Loop's I/O.
A Hot loop check is 'hot' because it is done with the loop
powered up.
A Hot loop check consists of
- simulating a process input at the field instrument and
then checking the instrument's output and the response to
the process signal input at DCS/PLC.
- simulating outputs at the control end and checking for
correct response at the field end.
