摘要:
A magnetic flowmeter transmitter includes a flowtube and measurement circuitry which provides an output related to flow through the flowtube. Output circuitry, such as analog and pulse output circuitry, provides transmitter output(s) related to flow through the flowtube. Output verification circuitry of the transmitter is coupled to the output circuitry and provides verification of proper operation of the output circuitry by analyzing the output signals.
摘要:
A field device (100) is disclosed that includes a pair of electrodes (138,140) coupled to a process fluid (128) and a diagnostic circuit (156) coupled to the pair of electrodes (138,140) to monitor a common mode signal. The diagnostic circuit (156) is adapted to detect a poor ground connection associated with at least one electrode of the pair of electrodes (138,140) based on line noise associated with the common mode signal.
