Answer / chandrasekarapandian

For this issue take a water tank on which our Level
Transmitter is measuring level in meters Or any required
unit but generally 4 to 20 mA --> 0 to 100 % . Now we can
set 90% as HIGH and 95% as HIGH HIGH . Through by means of
proper alarm setting we can automate our process
comfortably . Alarm priorities depend on the process
requirement. In this process as HIGH alarm blinks that
gives just a warning, But HIGH HIGH alarm blinks that will
need to close the inlet of water tank to avoid overflow.

I have observed in field instrumentation work... I remove the fuse of an analog transmitter then it shows 7.75 kg/sq cm (which is practically wrong value)in DCS and when put the fuse it shows 0 in dcs. Then cheach the field transmitter termination and found moister. clean that and then it shows 1.1 kg/ sq cm which is right value. Please describe the above phenomenon.
