Measure what can be measured and make measurable what cannot be measured
(Galileo Galilei, 1600)
A measurement system is comprised of the equipment used
to sense an experiment’s enviroment, to change and condition
what is sensed into a recordable form, and to record its values.
A measurement system’s main purpose is to produce an accurate an accurate
numerical value numerical value of the measurand.
Ideally, the recorded value should be the exact value of the physical
variable sensed by the measurement system.
Measurement System 3
Present-day applications of measuring instruments measuring instruments can be classified into three major areas.
The firstfirst of these is their use in regulatingregulating trade, applyinginstruments that measure physical quantities such as length, volume and mass in terms of standard units.
The secondsecond application area of measuring instruments is in
monitoring functionsmonitoring functions.

greenhouse or open the windows if it is too hot.

Some quantities can thus be measured directly, other can be
measured only indirectly.
The great majority of physics measurements are indirect
measurements.
The Young’s modulus of a brass wire cannot be experimentally
determinated by finding how many times the unit of Young’s modulus,
usually determinated by measuring a force and three lengths, and from
them calculating the Young’s modulus.

Pengelompokan alat ukur 3:
Active and passive instruments
Instruments are divided into active or passive
ones according to whether the instrument
output is entirely produced by the quantity
being measured or whether the quantity being
measured simply modulates the magnitude of
some external power source.
Measurement System 10
Passive pressure gauge.
The pressure of the fluid is translated into a movement of a pointer against a scale. The energy expended in moving the pointer is derived entirely from the change in pressure measured: there are no other energy inputs to the system.
Measurement System 11
Petrol-tank level indicator.
The change in petrol level moves a potentiometer arm, and the output signal consists of a proportion of the external voltage source appliedacross the two ends of the potentiometer.
The energy in the output signal comes from the external power source: the primary transducer float system is merely modulating the value of the voltage from this external power source.
Measurement System 12
One very important difference between active and passive
instruments is the level of measurement resolution that can be
obtained.
In terms of cost, passive instruments are normally of a
more simple construction than active ones and are
therefore cheaper to manufacture.
Measurement System 13
Pengelompokan alat ukur 4:
Null-type and deflection-type instruments
Passive pressure gauge:a good example of a deflection type of instrument,
A deflection type of instrument, where the value of the quantity being measured is displayed in terms of the amount of movement of a pointer.
Measurement System 14
Deadweight pressure gauge:
a null-type instrument.
Weights are put on top of the piston until the downward force balances the fluid pressure.
Weights are added until the piston reaches a datum level, known as the null point.
Pressure measurement is made in terms of the value of the weights needed to reach this null position.
Measurement System 15
Pengelompokan alat ukur 5:
Analogue and digital instruments
An analogue instrument gives an output that varies
continuously as the quantity being measured changes.
A digital instrument has an output that varies in discrete steps and so can only have a finite number of values.

General architecture of a measurement system
Three main functions can be distinguished:
data acquisition
data processing
data distribution
Measurement System 16
Data acquisitionData acquisition:: to obtain information about the measurement
object and convert it into an electrical signal. All data is transferred
via a single connection to the data processing element.
Data processingData processing: includes processing, selecting or otherwise
manipulating measurement data in a prescribed manner. This task is
performed by a microprocessor, a micro-controller or a computer.
Data distributionData distribution: to supply processed data to the target object. The
multiple output indicates the possible presence of several target
instruments such as a series of control valves in a process installation.

inductance, and charge
Magnetic: magnetic field intensity, flux density, and
magnetization
Mechanical: displacement or strain, level, position,
velocity, acceleration, force, torque, pressure, and flow rate

SensorSensor always are based on some physical principle or law.
These include, but are not limited to, the sensor’s:•Operational bandwidth•Magnitude and frequency response over that bandwidth•Accuracy•Voltage or current supply requirement•Physical dimensions, weight, and materials•Enviromental operating conditions (pressure, temperature, relative humidity, air purity, radiation)•Type of output (electrical, mechanics)•Further signal conditioning requirement•Operational complexity•Cost
The choise of either designing or selecting a particular sensor start with identifying the physical variable to be
sensed and the physical principle or law associated with that variable. Then, the sensor”s input/output characteristics
must be identified.

Calibration and ResponseCalibration and Response
A single numberA single number has more genuine and permanent value than an expensive library full of hypothesesfull of hypotheses. (Robert J. Mayer, c. 1840)
Measurement system and their instrument are used in experiment to
obtain measurand value that usually are either steady or varying in time.
The error arise in the measurand value simply because the instrument
are not perfect; their output do not precisely follow their inputs.
These errors can be quantified through the
process of calibrationcalibration.
In a calibration, a known input value (called the standart) is applied to the
system and then is output is measured.
Calibrations can either be static (not a function of time) or dynamic
(both the magnitude and the frequency of the input signal can be a
function of time).
Calibration can be performed in either sequential or random steps.
In sequential, the input increased systematically and then decreased.
In random, the input is changed from one value to another in no
particular order.

Measurement System 32
1. Accuracy and inaccuracy (measurement uncertainty)
The accuracy of an instrument is a measure of how close the output reading of the instrument is to the correct value.
Inaccuracy is the extent to which a reading might be wrong, and is often quoted as a percentage of the full-scale (f.s.) reading of an instrument.
If, for example, a pressure gauge of range 0-10 bar has a quoted inaccuracy of ±1.0% f.s. (± 1% of full-scale reading), then the maximum error to be expected in any reading is 0.1 bar. This means that when the instrument is reading 1.0 bar, the possible error is 10% of this value.
The term measurement uncertainty is frequently used in place of inaccuracy.
Measurement System 33
2. Precision/repeatability/reproducibilityPrecision is a term that describes an instrument's degree of
freedom from random errors.
If a large number of readings are taken of the same quantity by a
high precision instrument, then the spread of readings will be very
small.
Repeatability describes the closeness of output readings when the
same input is applied repetitively over a short period of time, with the
same measurement conditions, same instrument and observer,
same location and same conditions of use maintained throughout.
Reproducibility describes the closeness of output readings for the
same input when there are changes in the method of measurement,
observer, measuring instrument, location, conditions of use and time
of measurement.
Measurement System 34
Measurement System 35
3. Tolerance
Tolerance is a term that is closely related to accuracy and defines
the maximum error that is to be expected in some value.
The electric circuit components such as resistors have
tolerances of perhaps 5%. One resistor chosen at random from
a batch having a nominal value 1000 and tolerance 5% might
have an actual value anywhere between 950 and 1050 .
4. Range or span
The range or span of an instrument defines the minimum and maximum values of a quantity that the instrument is designed to measure.
Measurement System 36
5. Linearity
It is normally desirable that the output reading of an instrument is linearly proportional to the quantity being measured.
Measurement System 37
6. Sensitivity of measurement
The sensitivity of measurement is a measure of the change in instrument output that occurs when the quantity being measured changes by a given amount.
Thus, sensitivity is the ratio:
The sensitivity of measurement is therefore the slope of the straight line drawn on.
For example, a pressure of 2 bar produces a deflection of 10 degrees in a pressure transducer, the sensitivity of the instrument is 5 degrees/bar (assuming that the deflection is zero with zero pressure applied).
Measurement System 38
Example
The following resistance values of a platinum resistance thermometer were measured at a range of temperatures. Determine the measurement sensitivity of the instrument in ohms/oC
SolutionIf these values are plotted on a graph, the straight-line relationship between resistance change and temperature change is obvious. For a change in temperature of 30oC the change in resistance is 7 . Hence the measurement sensitivity = 7/30 = 0.233 /oC
Measurement System 39
7. Threshold
This minimum level of input is known as the threshold of the instrument.
As an illustration, a car speedometer typically has a threshold of about 15 km/h. This means that, if the vehicle starts from rest and accelerates, no output reading is observed on the speedometer until the speed reaches 15 km/h.
8. Resolution
When an instrument is showing a particular output reading, there is a lower limit on the magnitude of the change in the input measured quantity that produces an observable change in the instrument output.
Using a car speedometer as an example again, this has subdivisions of typically 20 km/h. This means that when the needle is between the scale markings,we cannot estimate speed more accurately than to the nearest 5 km/h. This figure of 5 km/h thus represents the resolution of the instrument.
Measurement System 40
9. Sensitivity to disturbance
All calibrations and specifications of an instrument are only valid under controlled conditions of temperature, pressure etc. As variations occur in the ambient temperature etc., certain static instrument characteristics change, and the sensitivity to disturbance is a measure of the magnitude of this change.
Such environmental changes affect instruments in two main ways, known as zero drift (bias) and sensitivity drift.
Zero drift or bias describes the effect where the zero reading of an instrument is modified by a change in ambient conditions
Sensitivity drift (scale factor drift) defines the amount by which aninstrument's sensitivity of measurement varies as ambient conditions change.
Measurement System 41
Measurement System 42
Example A spring balance is calibrated in an environment at a temperature of 20 oC and has the following deflection/load characteristic.
It is then used in an environment at a temperature of 30 oC and the following deflection/ load characteristic is measured.
Determine the zero drift and sensitivity drift per oC change in ambient temperature.
Measurement System 43
10. Hysteresis effects
The non-coincidence between these loading and unloading curves is known as hysteresis.
Two quantities are defined: •maximum input hysteresis •maximum output hysteresis
Measurement System 44
Hysteresis is most commonly found in instruments that contain springs, such as the passive pressure gauge
Devices like the mechanical flyball (a device for measuring rotational velocity) sufferhysteresis from both of the above sources because they have friction in moving partsand also contain a spring.
Hysteresis can also occur in instruments that contain electricalwindings formed round an iron core, due to magnetic hysteresis in the iron.
This occurs in devices like the variable inductance displacement transducer, the LVDT and the rotary differential transformer.
Measurement System 45
11. Dead space
Dead space is defined as the range of different input values over which there is nochange in output value.
Measurement System 46
DYNAMIC CharacteristicsDYNAMIC Characteristics
The dynamic characteristics of a measuring instrument describe its
behaviour between the time a measured quantity changes value and
the time when the instrument output attains a steady value in
response.
As with static characteristics, any values for dynamic characteristics
quoted in instrument data sheets only apply when the instrument is
used under specified environmental conditions. Outside these
calibration conditions, some variation in the dynamic parameters can
be expected.
Measurement System 47
In any linear, time-invariant measuring system, the following general relation can be written between input and output for time (t) > O:
where qi is the measured quantity, q0 is the output reading and ao... an, bo... bm are constants.
If we limit consideration to that of step changes in the measured quantity only, then the equation reduces to:
Measurement System 48
If all the coefficients a1 . . . an other than a0 in the equation are assumed zero, then:
where K is a constant known as the instrument sensitivity as defined earlier.
A potentiometer, which measures
motion, is a good example of such
an instrument, where the output
voltage changes instantaneously as
the slider is displaced along thepotentiometer track.
Measurement System 49
If all the coefficients a2...an except for ao and a1 are assumed zero inthe equation then:
Any instrument that behaves according to the equation is known as a first order instrument.
If d/dt is replaced by the D operator:
Defining K = bo/ao as the static sensitivity and = a1/ao
Measurement System 50
The liquid-in-glass thermometer is a good example of a first order instrument. It is well known that, if a thermometer at room temperature is plunged into boiling water, the output e.m.f, does not rise instantaneously to a level indicating100oC but instead approaches a reading indicating 100oC in a manner similar to that shown in the figure.
Measurement System 51
If all coefficients a3... an other than ao, a1 and a2 in the equation are assumed zero, then we get:
K (static sensitivity), (undamped natural frequency) and (damping ratio)
This is the standard equation for a second order system and any instrument whose response can be described by it is known as a second order instrument.
Measurement System 52
Measurement System 53
For case (A) where = 0, there is no damping and the instrument output exhibits
constant amplitude oscillations when disturbed by any change in the physical
quantity measured.
For light damping of = 0.2, represented by case (B), the response to a step
change in input is still oscillatory but the oscillations gradually die down.
Further increase in the value of reduces oscillations and overshoot still more, as
shown by curves (C) and (D), and finally the response becomes very overdamped
as shown by curve (E) where the output reading creeps
up slowly towards the correct reading.
Measurement System 54
Clearly, the extreme response curves (A) and (E) are grossly unsuitable
for any measuring instrument. If an instrument were to be only ever
subjected to step inputs, then the design strategy would be to aim
towards a damping ratio of 0.707, which gives the critically damped
response (C).
As the form of the input variable changes, so the best value for varies,
and choice of becomes one of compromise between those values that
are best for each type of input variable behaviour anticipated.
Commercial second order instruments, of which the accelerometer
is a common example, are generally designed to have a damping
ratio () somewhere in the range of 0.6-0.8.
