Pressure Transmitter
Explanation of the terms: Transmitter’s Turn down (TD) ratio, set span and zero based span
Calibration Flow Transmitter
Consider a Pressure Transmitter and we will discuss some important parameters related to it.
4 20MA Transmitter
Range : is the measurement limit and covers from the minimum to the maximum pressure that the transmitter can measure, e.g.,
Pressure Transducer
0 to 5080 mmH2O. The maximum span is 5080 mmH2O.

URL (Upper Range Limit) : is the highest pressure at which the transmitter was designed to measure, respected the sensor upper Categories
range limit.

Select Category
LRL (Lower Range Limit) : is the lowest pressure at which the transmitter was designed to measure, respected the sensor lower
range limit.

4 20MA Transmitter
URV (Upper Range Value) : is the maximum pressure at which the transmitter calibrated.

Pressure Transmitter
LRV (Lower Range Value) : is the minimum pressure at which the transmitter calibrated.
Calibration Flow Transmitter

Span (Range Calibrated) : the work range where the calibration is done is known as span, for example, from 500 to 3000 mmH2O, Pressure Transducer
where the span is 3000-500 = 2500 mmH2O. The Span is equal to URV – LRV.

Turndown(TD) or Rangeability :  is the relation between the maximum pressure (URL) and the minimum measured pressure 24% 36%
Mới
(minimum calibrated span). For example, a transmitter range is 0-5080 mmH2O and will be used on 10:1, indicating which

transmitter will measure 0 to 508 mmH2O. TD = URL/ Calibrated Span.

Case 1:  
50% 28%

|Lower range value| ≤ |Upper range value|

Hi All,

In the above, please elaborate the eἦect of Turn Down Ratio of higher or lower during operation or selection of
transmitters.

Hi , I have certain doubts in case 2 Formulas to calculate

1. If TD = URL/URV , then it should be 1000/0 as per the formula mentioned ma from PV, LRV and
URV
 April 25, 2015
2. Span = URV – LRV, then it should be 0-(-300), which is 300.
Please correct me if am wrong
