LearningObjectives • Demonstrate converting transmitter input signals to output signals • Follow lab procedure without guidance to perform transmitter calibration • Document transmitter nameplate data
Operation % INPUT = % OUTPUT i.e: When input is 75%, Output is 75% TRANSMITTER INPUT OUTPUT
Conversion Formula Range: Always Two values; URV: Upper Range Value LRV: Lower Range Value: 4–20 ma , URV = 20, LRV= 4 Span = 16, URV–LRV (20 –4)
Conversion Formula • Output = % Span x Span + LRV • If input is at 75% of Span Than; • Output = .75 x (20 – 4) + 4 • Output = 8 milliamp
