reversing 4-20ma logic
reversing 4-20ma logic
(OP)
thanks for the help on an analyzer in previous post. i now find i have another difficulty coupling the sensors i'm considering and the equipment i want to control. the equipment expects a directly propotional 4-20 man signal but the sensor will yield an inversely proportion signal.
this is a pressure application 0-28" water column.
so 4ma on the sensor represents 0 pressure and 20ma represents 28". I need to reverse that logic so that 20ma represents 0 pressure and 4 ma represents 28". Is there a "reverser" that i can put in the current loop or that sets up its own current loop and then can output the inverse of the result onto the operating loop.
thanks

If you really are stuck, then look for devices like this one:
