Best Answer

Terminal linearity is when there is no flexibility allowed in the placement of the straight line in order to minimize the deviations ( or non-linearities). The straight line must be located so that each of its end points coincides with the device's upper and lower range values. This means that the non linearity measured will be larger than that measured by the independent linearity definitions.

What is the limit of linearity range?

Limit of Linearity is the concentration at which the calibration curve departs from linearity by a specified amount. A deviation of approximately 5% is usually considered the upper limit. Common at higher concentrations.

What is coil linearity?

A variable linearity coil has a coil which is wound around a magnetic core, a permanent magnet for charging a bias magnetic field to the magnetic core, and a magnetic field adjusting coil for adjusting the bias magnetic field. The coil and the magnetic field adjusting coil are respectively disposed horizontally such that an axial line of each of the coils lies perpendicular to lead terminals to which terminal ends of each of the coils are connected. The coil, the magnetic field adjusting coil, and the permanent magnet may be contained in a casing and the terminal ends of each of the coil and the magnetic field adjusting coil are connected to lead terminals which are embedded into the casing

How to Calculate Pressure Transmitter Accuracy?

accuracy with only one variable. Accuracy takes into account several different variables, only one of which is non-linearity. In other words, non-linearity alone does not determine a device’s overall accuracy. These are the five variables a user should consider when determining pressure transmitter accuracy: Two methods are used to generate the reference line needed to find a pressure transmitter’s non-linearity: the terminal method, also called endpoint method (blue line) and the best fit straight line method (brown line). The linearity is the largest deviation from the reference line to the actual response (red line). Non-linearity Non-linearity is the largest deviation between the actual response (red curve) and a reference line. There are two common methods for generating this reference line The terminal method, also called the endpoint method, draws a straight line from the actual zero point to the actual full scale value endpoint. Since this method is based on the characteristic curve’s endpoints, it is a truer representation of a pressure transmitter’s non-linearity. The best fit straight line (BFSL) method is a straight line that stays within a certain percentage deviation from the characteristic curve, or actual response. The endpoints do not figure into this method. BFSL method values are typically half of terminal method values, meaning that a pressure transmitter with a ±0.25% BFSL non-linearity allows for a ±0.50% error. Zero offset and span tolerance when calculating pressure transmitter accuracy Zero offset The zero offset is the deviation between the ideal line’s zero point and the characteristic curve’s zero point (see Fig. 4). Span tolerance Span tolerance is the deviation of the actual span from the ideal span between the zero point and the full scale point. The span offset is not related to the zero offset and has to be added to it. Hysteresis Hysteresis is the lag between a change in pressure and the corresponding change in the pressure transmitter signal. It is an indication of how fast or slow a pressure transmitter responds to input changes. Non-repeatability Non-repeatability is the maximum difference in the signal of the pressure transmitter for the same applied pressure. It is an indication of how much the transmitter duplicates measurements for the same input.
