A differential pressure transmitter is calibrated 0 to 50 inches of water and transmits a 4 to
20 mA d.c. signal. This transmitter, is placed across an orifice plate which is sized to create
50 inches of water differential at 5 gallons per minute, What s the flow rate when the signal
is 12mA d.c. ?

A differential pressure is used to measure level of water in a tank. If the transmitter is

calibrated to measure levels from 20 cm to 80 cm, what will the transmitter output when
the level of water is at 45 cm?
In the measurement of level of water (range of 5m to 30m), using a pressure to current
transmitter, a level of 5m corresponds to a current of 4 mA. Determine the current for a
level of 25m.

The flow rate of a liquid flowing in a pipe is measured using a restriction based flow
measurement system.

a) Write the equation relating the pressure drop across the restriction and the flow
rate.
b) If a flow rate of 10 m^3/sec corresponds to a pressure drop of 8 psi, what will be the
flow rate when the pressure drop is 13 psi?
If an input signal of 6 mA d.c. is injected to an electro/pneumatic converter, what is the
output signal in psi?

A tooted-rotor tachometer has a rotor of 12 teeth. If the tachometer output shows a total of
629 pulses, how many revolution has the rotor made?

1 rev = 12 pulses ----- (1)

n rev = 629 pulses ----- (2)

(2)/(1) n rev/1 rev = 629 pulses/12 pulses

n = 52.42 pulses
n = 52 rev
