These methods are based on the assumption that thefield devices, such as measuring transmitters, transducers,valve positioners, control valves, and other devices are prop-erly installed

37、NSIDERATIONS FORTRANSMISSION SYSTEMSThe following major factors should be considered in thedesign of transmission systems:a. The relationship of time constants among process, trans-mission, and control lines, since this relationship mayinfluence a control loops actual performance. Thisproblem is pri

38、marily associated with pneumatic transmis-sion.b. The reliability of air and electric power supplies.c. The routing and installation of tubing, wiring, and pipingto maintain circuit integrity; to reduce the possibility ofdamage from fire, overheating from hot process lines orequipment, and mechanica

39、l abuse; and to ensure immunityfrom electrical and radio-frequency interference. d. The resistance of material and construction to corrosioncaused by chemicals in the atmosphere or splatter fromnew construction or maintenance. e. Provisions for manual control, testing, and ready accessto instruments

40、 for maintenance. f. Safety requirements and the effect of federal, state, andlocal regulations and of national and local codes.3.3 ELECTRONIC The preferred signal transmission today is electronic.Electronic methods and needs are discussed in depth in thisdocument, starting with Section 4.3.4 PNEUMA

43、g technology and will find more use inthe future. At present, use is usually limited to dedicated cablesbetween portions of control systems, and for some specialapplications. Cables, connectors, and matching electronics areavailable. The user is cautioned to verify that the cable selectedis appropri

44、ate for the application in strength and mechanicalmakeup, and that the electronics are appropriate. If the signalpower is limited to Light Emitting Diode (LED), sources,rather than a Laser source, there is little concern of ignition ofhazardous vapors. If the cable has no metal components whichcould

45、 carry electrical currents, then fiber optics providescomplete electrical, galvanic, isolation between the connecteddevices, thus eliminating concerns of ground currents. 3.6 DIGITAL FIELD BUSSeveral proprietary digital communications schemes areavailable today for field instruments, and standards a

46、re underdevelopment to permit convenient interconnection. Digitalcommunications between microcomputer-based devices canutilize the intelligence of the devices to improve accuracy, toimprove utility, to reduce check-out costs, and to facilutatefurther advances in control and control systems. These te

47、ch-niques also allow multiple devices to share one wire pair toreduce wiring costs. Where metallic wiring is used, the usualconcerns of grounding, electrical surge, and electrical safetyall apply.4 General Information On ElectronicSystems4.1 GENERALThis section includes practices for classified and

48、non-clas-sified areas. The discussion of electric signal transmissionnecessarily includes signals, analog or digital, that are usedin measurement and control systems. The instrumentsinclude sensing elements, transmitters, analyzers, con-trollers, and display devices. The installation of signal wirin

49、g requires practices thatwill prevent excessive distortion of the signal. Signal wiringis only part of an electronic signal transmission system. Thedesign and installation of the wiring, transmitter, andreceiver must result in a system that is suitably accurate forthe application. Factors that must be considered includeregulatory codes, requirements of a specific set of equip-ment, and electrical characteristics of the environmentthrough which the wiring passes.
