Where I (mA) is the 4-20 mA current, R
(ohms) is the

resistance of the pickoff resistor, and V
(mV) is the
measured
voltage drop over R

inputs
The optional 100uF capacitor shown in parallel with the R
Volt
reduces measurement noise. It should have a voltage rating
higher than the largest supply voltage and be sure to observe
correct polarity.
The value of R
is limited by the amount of impedance
Volt
that the MAS-1 circuitry can drive current through. The val-
ues in Table 1 represent the maximum load that the MAS-1
can drive at the given supply voltage. Equation (2) was
derived from the values in Table 1, which were obtained
through direct measurement. V
represents the supply volt-
in
age to the MAS-1, which ranges from 10-32 VDC. R
