ACCURACY AND CALCULATION EXAMPLES

Overall Accuracy
The accuracy includes input accuracy, which converts the sensor input into a digital value, and output accuracy, which converts the digital value into an analog signal.
The accuracy of the device is the total of the input accuracy and the output accuracy
Input accuracy
Input accuracy for the setting value span is shown as following formula.
Input accuracy = (input range ÷ input setting value span) × 0.1%
Output accuracy
Output accuracy for the setting value span is shown as following formula.
Output accuracy = (output range ÷ output setting value span) × 0.02%
For current output,
Output accuracy = (output range ÷ output setting value span) × 0.04%
Calculation examples
Input: input range 0 - 100 kHz, input setting value span: 50 - 100 kHz
Output: output range 0 - 20 mA, output setting value span 4 - 20 mA
Input accuracy = (100 kHz ÷ 50 kHz) × 0.1% = 0.2%
Output accuracy = (20 mA ÷ 16 mA) × 0.04% = 0.05%
Accuracy = input accuracy 0.2% + output accuracy 0.05% = 0.25%
