    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Performance characteristics and test methods to be used for d.c. powered electrical transmitters with analogue direct current output used in differential pressure measurement.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This British Standard specifies requirements for d.c. powered electrical transmitters with analogue direct current output used in differential pressure measurement.

    This standard applies only to transmitters with a linear relationship between differential pressure input and current output for general industrial use, and does not apply to aerospace, marine, laboratory and medical requirements.
