What is negative range in transmeter?

Answer Posted / manohar chotrani

Negative range of a transmitter is nothing but the range
required to measure the vacuum of any equipment.If the
pressure inside a tank or equipment drops below zero and
goes to negative side then it is measured by the
transmitter.Maximum of 14.7 psi vacuum can be measured at
ideal conditions.For example a transmitter range is
calibrated as -600 to +600 mm of water means the
transmitter will measure negative pressure inside a pipe or
column or tank and give output as 4 mA and at pressure of
600mm(positive )it give 20 mA output

How to Calibrate Ultrasonic Level Transmitter in field

Q1: Consider part of a control loop, which excludes the transmitter, consisting of a process, a controller and a control valve which may be represented by two dead times of 0.5 min each and three exponential lags of 0.8 min., 1.0 min. and 1.5 min. respectively. We wish to express this system as an overall first order plus dead time (FOPLD) model ie gain, time constant and process dead time. (We will see later that this is often done, to simplify controller tuning). For this exercise, gain is considered to be 1.0. (A) If the transmitter is a flow transmitter whose behaviour can be described by a dead time of 0.2 min. and an exponential lag of 0.5 min. in terms of the overall dead time and overall first order lag how can the system behaviour be approximated ? Overall dead time = Overall time constant = (B) If the transmitter is a temperature transmitter with a temperature sensor in a protecting well whose behaviour can be described by a dead time of 0.7 min. and an exponential lag of 15 min. how can the overall system behaviour be approximated now? Overall dead time = Overall time constant =
