2 wire transmitters are used to convert non-electrical
parameters, e.g. temperature, pressure,
relative humidity etc. to an electrical standard signal of 4
to 20 mA.
The transmitters are connected to a d.c. voltage source
by means of 2 cables. The power consumption of the
transmitter from the d.c. current source changes linearly
in the range from 4 to 20 mA, depending on the
parameter being measured.
The advantages of the two wire system are easy
installment and problem-free connection. The length of
the cables does not influence the measured signal. A
further additional advantage is the so-called “live zero”
signal i.e. 0 parameter corresponds to a current of 4
mA. In this way, this value is also clearly transmitted and
cannot be confused, for example, with a system which
is switched off or an ununterrupted line.
