Introduction to Instrumentation System

 Instrument:

An instrument may be defined as a device for determining the magnitude of a quantity for a physical variable.

Measurement and Measurement System:

Instrumentation is the operation for determining the value of the quantity. A measurement or instrumentation system is a means used to carry out the measurement. It generally involves using an instrument as physical means of determining a quantity or variable. The purpose of the measurement system is to give the user numerical value corresponding to the variable be measured. For a variety of reasons, the numerical value may not actually be the true value of the variable.

Due to various errors, the measured values will not be exactly equal to the true value of the quantity under measurement.

Physical variables and transducer

unit 3 Physical Variables and transducers  Sensor Sensors are electrical devices that have the capability of sensing different physical variables. The sensor may be classified on different bases one of them is a physical quantity. Hence on the basis of a physical quantity or physical vibration involved the sensors are classified as: Resistive sensor  The input being measured is transformed into a change in resistance. examples: potentiometer, resistance thermometer, strain gauge, etc. Inductive sensor The input being measured is transformed into a change in resistance. example LVDT. Capacitive Sensor The input being measured is transformed into a change in capacitance. example: capacitive Displacement sensor. On the basis of power supply required: Active Sensor Active sensors are those which do not require an external power supply.  example: thermo-couple Passive Sensor Passive Sensors are those which require a power supply. example: Potentiometer. Physical variables and ...
