Exercise n°1
a) What is the resolution of a 10 bits digital sensor for a span of 16 mA?
b) A pressure sensor gives a span of [25 psi, 150 psi], specify the error that measures 103 psi, if the
accuracy is of: (1) ±1.5% Span, (2) ±2% FSD, (3) ±1.3% reading?
c) What is the accuracy of the pressure measurement instrument if its transfer function is of 27 mV/kPa
±2.1% (FSD) and the transmitter precision is of ±1.7% (FSD)? Give the pressure accuracy range of
231 mV ?

Exercise n°2
A vessel of 150 inches requires an interface measurement; it includes two fluids with specific gravities of 1.0
and 1.08, see fig. I.1. Determine the interface of a mixture of fluids if the transmitter output is 18.4 mA?

Exercise n°3
The resistive elements of strain gauge are of 6kΩ, see fig. I.2, a digital voltmeter of 0.1V, 1V, and 10V of
calibration with a resolution of ±0.1% FSD is used to measure the output voltage. Let us consider 𝑅1 fixed and
𝑅2 is the measuring element. For a supply of 10V, what is the minimum variation of 𝑅2 which could be
detected?

bridge balance, R1 = 15kΩ, R2 = 27kΩ, R3 = 18kΩ, and C1 = 27Nf?
