aes ads PRODUCTION LOGGING-ELECTRIC LINE Dec., 1977 GLOSSARY OF COMMON TERMS GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS - Operating pressure range - Operating temperature range et + length . diameter + weight ~ Proof pressure : Percentage of rated pressure which will not cause changes in performance beyond the specified tolerances. - Burst pressure : Percentage of rated pressure which will not cause rupture of the sensing element or case. Changes in nominal performance (calibration etc ...) may occur. ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS ~ Power requirements : This characterizes the type of power supply required for the gauge - current or voltage supply, power etc... ~ Output data : Frequency proportional to the pressure applied. - Full scale (FS) : Maximum value of the output data for the full input. - Full range output (FRO) : Difference between full scale (FS) and output data for zero input. ~ Supply rejection Output variations following a DC supply change - expressed as percentage of FRO per unit of supply variation. - Stabilization time : Time interval required to reach accuracy range and the gauge has been switched ON.Dec., 1977 vecsoucresxs PRODUCTION LOGGING.ELECTRIC LINE - Thermal zero stability (TZSt) : Maximum deviation between any two room temperature zero output values obtained during a temperature calibration : expressed as a percentage of FRO or in ppm. - Thermal sensitivity stability (TSSt) : Maximum deviation between any two room temperature full range output values obtained during a temperature calibration expressed as a percentage of FRO or in ppm ENVIRONMENTAL CHARACTERISTICS - Vibrations : Output variation following a given vibration environment - generally expressed as percentage of PRO per g. = Shocks : Output variations following a given shock environment - generally expressed as percentage of FRO per g.
