Pressure Detectors OBJECTIVES TERMINAL OBJECTIVE 1.0 Given a pressure instrument, RELATE the fundamental principles, including possible failure modes, to that specific instrument. ENABLING OBJECTIVES 1.1 EXPLAIN how a bellows-type pressure detector produces an output signal including: a. Method of detection b. Method of signal generation 1.2 EXPLAIN how a bourdon tube-type pressure detector produces an output signal including: a. Method of detection b. Method of signal generation 1.3 STATE the three functions of pressure measuring instrumentation. 1.4 DESCRIBE the three alternate methods of determining pressure when the normal pressure sensing devices are inoperable. 1.5 STATE the three environmental concerns which can affect the accuracy and reliability of pressure detection instrumentation. 1.6 EXPLAIN how a strain gauge pressure transducer produces an output signal including: a. Method of detection b. Method of signal generation 1.7 Given a basic block diagram of a typical pressure detection device, STATE the purpose of the following blocks: a. Sensing element b. Transducer c. Pressure detection circuitry d. Pressure indication Rev. 0 Page v IC-02
