I have an Omega logger with a 0-24mA at a test facility trying to log dissolve oxygen readings. The DO sensors are 4-20mA. Initially I thought this was a scaling issue, but the values in the logger and that from the DO analyser are just not consistent.
for example, a 4mA output from the DO analyser showed 4.75 from logger
while
a 20mA output from DO analyser showed a value of 19.1 on the logger.
The issue must come from the logger, because the loop between the DO sensing probes and analyser has been verified to be working correctly. Screens are fitted on the lines, so any interference from other process equipment is minimised.
I just would like to understand why some dataloggers have a 0-24mA range and what needs to be done to measure sensors that give a 4-20mA signal?
