Current Loop System. The DC power supply provides the power to the system. The transducer regulates the flow of current through the wires at 4 to 20 mA, where 4 mA represents a live zero and 20 mA represents the maximum signal. A 0 mA signal signifies a break in the loop. The data acquisition device measures the regulated current flow.

A 4-20mA current loop circuit is shown in Figure 1. In a current loop, the current is drawn from a DC loop power supply, then flows through the transmitter using field wiring connected to a loop load resistor in the receiver or controller, and then back to the loop supply, with all elements being connected in a series circuit.

This makes the transmitter terminal voltage inversely proportional to loop current: the transmitter sees approximately 25 volts at 4 mA loop current (0% signal) and approximately 21 volts at 20 mA loop current (100% signal). The use of the word “approximate” is very intentional here, for loop power supplies are usually non-regulated.

A current loop requires voltage to drive the current. This is provided by the power supply, with the voltage of the supply labeled as Vtot. Current then flows through the loop, passing through each load. The voltage drop at each load can be calculated from Ohm's Law. The voltage drop V1 across R1 is: Figure 2. Ohm's Law

The current flows back to the controller through the wire. The loop current flows through Rreceiver to ground and returns to the power supply. The current flowing through Rreceiver produces a voltage that is easily measured by an analog input. For a 250Ω resistor, the voltage will be 1 VDC at 4 mA and 5VDC at 20mA. Current Loop Components

A 24 VAC transformer provides power to the controller and the BAPI VC350A current loop power supply (The primary high voltage wiring to the transformer is not shown). The VC350A should be mounted as close as possible to the controller. The positive output of the VC350A is connected through a cable to the Red or positive terminal of the transmitter.
