NEW ON-LINE PV CALCULATOR FROM STATUS

Status Instruments has launched a simple calculator available on its website to enable process engineers to easily calculate the conversion to and from electrical input and the output Process Value (PV) of a control system.

By entering the input value in mA or volts the calculator will tell the user the Process Variable (Deg C, Bar etc) for the defined configuration. It can also be used to obtain the input value in mA or volts
by entering the output Process Variable (Deg C, Bar etc).

"With any signal conditioning unit or transmitter, knowing the relationship between the electrical input (4 to 20) mA or similar and the process value (PV) °C, bar, L/min etc. can be essential in establishing the correct operation of a control system but it can be a laborious task to manually make the calculation. Our new calculator, available on-line, will cut the time and effort normally needed to make this essential calculation," explains Status Instruments' Managing Director, Ian Pullin. 

Status has also added the calculator to its free product configuration software.
The new PV calculator can be found at http://www.status.co.uk/calculator.aspx
