 EXPLANATIONS OF TERMS
■ ACCURACY • Thermocouple
This transmitter’s accuracy is theoretically defined as the addition 1) K thermocouple, 0 – 1000°C
of A/D and D/A conversion errors: Absolute value accuracy (Table 1): 0.25°C
Accuracy = A/D Conversion Error + D/A Conversion Error 0.1% × 1000°C = 1°C > 0.25°C
The A/D conversion error means that measured as HART signal CJC error (0.5°C) added: 1 + 0.5 = 1.5°C
which is A/D converted from the analog input signal. 1.5°C / 1000°C × 100 = 0.15 %
The D/A conversion error of this transmitter is relatively very ➠ Overall accuracy including CJC error = ±0.15% of span

The “Accuracies” given in Table 1 therefore equals the A/D con- 0.1% × (150 – 50)°C = 0.1°C < 0.25°C
