This chapter concerned with static or steady state characteristics, these
C are the relationships which may occur between the output (O) and the
H input (I) of an element when I is either at a constant value or changing
A slowly.

M 1- Range:
E Input range: The input range of an element is specified by the
C minimum value of the input (IMIN) and the maximum value (IMAX).
H Output range: The output range of an element is specified by the
A minimum value of the output (OMIN) and the maximum value
(OMAX).
T
Examples:
R
1- A pressure transducer may an input range of 0 to 104 Pascal (PMIN =
O 0 and PMAX = 104 Pa), and an output range of 4 to 20 mA (CMIN = 4
N mA and CMAX = 20 mA).
I 2- A thermocouple may have an input range of 100 to 250 C (TMIN =
C 100 C and TMAX = 250 C) and an output range of 4 to 10 mV
(VMIN = 4 mV and VMAX = 10 mV).

Examples:

1- The above pressure transducer has an input span of (PMAX - PMIN =
T 104 – 0 = 104 Pa), and an output span of (CMAX - CMIN = 20 – 4 = 16
R mA).
O 2- The above thermocouple has an input span of (TMAX - TMIN = 250 –
N 100 = 150 C) and an output span of (VMAX - VMIN = 10 – 4 = 6
mV).

A Solution:
The general model of the displacement transducer is:
T
VO(x) = 19.3 x + N(x) + 54 ΔVS x
R VO(2.0) = 19.3 (2.0) + N(2.0) + 54 (0.4 – 0.5) (2.0)
O VO(2.0) = 38.6 + 12.9 – 10.8 = 40.7 mV

M Dynamic Characteristics
E Dynamic characteristics: The time that the input value change and the output
settles down to the steady state measured value.
C
Dynamic characteristics are:
H
1. Response time: The required time (elapsed time) for the output (measured
A value) to become equal 95 % of the input (true value)
T 2. Time constant: The elapsed time for the output (response or measured value)
R to become equal 63.2 % of the input value.
Small time constant Fast sensor.
O
Large time constant Slow sensor.
N
3. Rise time: Time taken for the output (response) to become equal 90 % or 95
I % of the input value (steady state value).
C 4. Settling time: The time needed for the output to settle within ± 2 % of the
S input value or steady state value.

R Time constant:
O 63.2 % of the response = 25.0 + 0.632 (100.0 – 25.0) = 72.4 °C
N To find the time constant make interpolation between 35.0 sec and 40.0 sec
I Time constant (τ) = 35.0 + [(40.0 – 35.0)/ (80.0 – 69.5)] (72.4 – 69.5)

N Settling time (TS):
I ± 2 % of the response = ± 0.02 (100.0 – 25.0) = 1.5 °C
