Explanation of Errors in Moving Iron Instruments

Errors in Moving Iron Instruments

There are two types of error which occur in moving iron instruments. They are

1. Errors with both A.C and D.C work:

(a) Hysteresis error

(b) Stray magnetic field error.

(d) Friction error.

2. Errors with A.C work only:

(a) Frequency error.

(b) Error due to reactance of the instrument coil.

(d) Error due to waveform.

(A) Hysteresis error is serious type of error in MI instruments when used on D.C circuits. The effect of this error is that the readings are higher when current increases than when it decreases.

This error can be reduced by employing vanes of mumtal (i.e. mumtal is magnetic material having low hysteresis loss and high permeability) and by working it over a low range of flux densities.

(B) Stray magnetic field error may be serious because of the weakness of the operating magnetic field. This error can be reduced by enclosing the movement in an iron case (or) shielding the instrument with the help of steel case.

(C) Temperature error is due to change of temperature that affects the instrument resistance and stiffness of the control spring.

(D) Friction error is due to the friction of moving parts this can be avoided by making torque-weight ratio high.

(E) Frequency Error change in frequency may be cause errors due to change of reactance of the operating coil and also to the changes in magnitude of eddy current set up in the metal parts of the instrument near the operating coil.

(F) Error due to reactance of the instrument coil the change in instrument coil reactance owing to change in frequency causes serious error in case of voltmeters.

(G) Eddy current error affects both ammeters and voltmeters equally. The frequency error may be compensated for by connecting a suitable capacitor C in the parallel with swamping resistance R (C = L/R², if frequency is not too high).

(H) MI instruments may be seriously affected by waveform both on account of the change in the form of flux waveform and in case of voltmeter, the effect of harmonic upon the inductance.

TDA2030 complete tone control

At this time I present a series of amplifiers that use IC TDA2030, but this series is equipped with a tone control. Tone controls include Bass, Treebel, and Volume. Power amplifier and tone control has been put together in a single PCB. As well as its power supply circuit was also used as one with the power amp, and tone control. Making it easier in the installation and will look neat. Schematics Layout PCB PCB design This amplifier is a mono amplifier type, can be modif for guitar amplifiers. If not coupled amplifier (mic preamp) then you must deactivated potensio treble and bass, why? because if not using a mic preamp and still maintain potensio treble and bass sound input (input) from the guitar will not or the maximum discharge is not tight on the speakers. So you must deactivated a way to decide which directly connected capacitor with the tone control circuit, and capacitor were connected directly to potensio volume and input jack.

PID instruction in Allen Bradley PLC Closed Loop Control

PID instruction in Allen Bradley PLC [Proportional/Integral/Derivative] Closed Loop Control For Processor SLC 5/02SLC 5/03SLC 5/04SLC 5/05 MicroLogix 1200 and MicroLogix 1500 (A special PID file replaces the old integer file control block.) Description of PID in PLC This output instruction is used to control physical properties such as temperature, pressure, liquid level, or flow rate of process loops. The PID instruction normally controls a closed loop using inputs from an analog input module and providing an output to an analog output module as a response to effectively hold a process variable at a desired set point. The PID equation controls the process by sending an output signal to the actuator. The greater the error between the setpoint and the process variable input, the greater the output signal, and vice versa. An additional value (feed forward or bias) can be added to the control output as an offset. The result of the PID calculation (control vari...

NE566 Function Generator Circuit Diagram

The NE566 Function Generator is a Voltage-Controlled Oscillator of exceptional linearity with buf fered square wave and triangle wave outputs. The frequency of oscillation is determined by an external resistor and capacitor and the voltage applied to the control terminal. The Oscillator CAN be programmed over a ten-to-one frequency range by proper selection of an external resistance and modulated over a ten-to-one range by the control voltage, with exceptional linearity.
