Pressure Transducer Reading Error

Solved!
Go to solution

I am trying to read the pressure of a system using a 3-pin pressure transducer.  Details below.

Supply Voltage: 8-28VDC (I am using 24VDC)

Range: 0-3000psig

Output: 0-5VDC

It reads the pressure from 0 to approximately 15 but then stops reading.  The transducer should read to 3000psi but it just stops at 15.

 

Attached is the VI.  Could anyone help solve this issue please?

Hi elambdin,

 

Could anyone help solve this issue please?

Why are you using a DAQAssistent to read the voltage signal?

Why did you configure a ""Pressure (Bridge) Setup" - when you just want to read a voltage signal???

 

Read the voltage, then scale on your own (p:=U*3000psi/5V).

Or apply a DAQmx scale on the voltage reading channel!

Best regards,
GerdW
