  1. Pressure transmitter drift

    Hello all this isnt strictly omron/programmer but has anyone used much in the way of pressure transmitters? we have a wika s-11 pressure transmitter on one of our machines installed roughly 7 months ago where the scaling does not seem to be linear, i only started working here around that time so i dont know how it was installed etc. but its a 0-40 bar 4-20mA transmitter connected to an ad081 4000 resolution connected to a cj2m. so the conversion should be nice and easy 100 raw data = 1 bar however it seems to be scaling logarithmicly to me as we checked with a 2 different guages and when they were at 2 bar the transmitter was showing 137 raw data and at 8 bar it was showing 737 raw data and this seems to keep scaling in this fashion as we get to higher bar. is this a common fault on transmitters? is there anything else that could be causing this? how often would you normally expect a transmitter to last? i checked my scaling FB on another transmitter connected to a compressor and it worked correctly so its not the maths used   thanks in advance
