why we used for range in pnumatic 3-15 psi and current 4-20
ma?
Answer Posted / saravanamurthy
Hi,
4-20 mA standard is mainly to differentiate the conditions
live zero and dead zero i.e let me tell an example consider
a level sensor fixed in a tank . now the tank is empty .
then the sensor will send the reading as 0mA this zero is
live zero, if there is no standard as 4-20mA. in the same
case if there is any problem in the sensor output then also
the reading ll be 0mA this zero is Dead zero.In order to
differentiate the fault and the original process condition
we have chose this range as the standard.
Thanks & Regards,

A DP transmitter is used to measure the level of an open tank. The drain line of the tank is connected to a control valve, and is configured as, if the level of the tank is 90% the valve should get open 10%. And if the tank level is 10%, the valve should get open 90%. Draw wiring diagram and explain how to configure DP transmitter and control valve using HART communicator. If the span error at output is 1%, what will be the %opening of the control valve at 60% level of the tank?
