Several linear transmitters have been installed and calibrated as follows:

Flow rate 400 gal/min 15 psig Pneumatic

0 gal /min 3 psig transmitter
Pressure 30 in Hg 20 mA Current
10 in Hg 4 mA transmitter
Level 20 m 5 VDC Voltage
0.5 m 1 VDC Transmitter
Concentration 20 g/l 10 VDC Voltage
2 g/l 1 VDC Transmitter

a) Develop expression for the output of each transmitter as a function of its input. Be sure to
include appropriate units.

b) What is the gain, zero and span of transmitter ? Is the gain constant or variable?
