With Answers
|| || ||
__________ is the science of automated measurement and
|| || || || || || || ||
control. - CORRECT ANSWER(S)✔✔Instrumentation
|| || ||
_________ is the physical system we are attempting to
|| || || || || || || || ||
control or measure. Ex: pressure, level, temp, flow -
|| || || || || || || || ||
CORRECT ANSWER(S)✔✔Process ||
__________ _________ is the specific quantity we are
|| || || || || || || ||
measure in a process. Ex: pressure, level, temp, flow -
|| || || || || || || || || ||
CORRECT ANSWER(S)✔✔Process Variable (PV) || || ||
____________ is the value we desire the process variable to
|| || || || || || || || ||
be maintained at, another way is to say it is the "target"
|| || || || || || || || || || || || ||
value for the process variable. - CORRECT
|| || || || || || ||
ANSWER(S)✔✔Setpoint (SP) ||
__________ ________ ________ is a device directly sensing
|| || || || || || || ||
the process variable and translating that sensed quantity
|| || || || || || ||
into an analog representation. Ex: thermocouple,
|| || || || || || ||
thermistor, RTD - CORRECT ANSWER(S)✔✔Primary || || || || ||
sensing element (PSE) || ||
, _____________ is a device converting one standardized || || || || || || ||
instrumentation signal into another standardized || || || || ||
instrumentation signal, and/or performing some sort of || || || || || || ||
processing on that signal. - CORRECT || || || || || ||
ANSWER(S)✔✔Transducer
__________ is a device translating the signal produced by
|| || || || || || || || ||
a primary sensing element (PSE) into a standardized
|| || || || || || || ||
instrumentation signal. - CORRECT || || || ||
ANSWER(S)✔✔Transmitter or Secondary Element || || ||
________ and ______ are the values of the process
|| || || || || || || || ||
measurement deemed to be 0% and 100% of a || || || || || || || || ||
transmitter's calibrated range. - CORRECT || || || || ||
ANSWER(S)✔✔Lower and Upper range values (LRV and || || || || || || ||
URV)
_______ refers to the width of the range (URV-LRV) -
|| || || || || || || || || ||
CORRECT ANSWER(S)✔✔Span ||
________ refers to the beginning-point of an instrument's
|| || || || || || || ||
range. (equivalent to LRV) - CORRECT
|| || || || || ||
ANSWER(S)✔✔Zero
_________ is a device receiving a process variable (PV)
|| || || || || || || || ||
signal from a primary sensing element or transmitter,
