Equation 3 - Digits Calculation using Linear Conversion 

 

The “Digits” calculation for the Vibrating Wire transducer output when using polynomial 

conversion is based on this equation: 

 

Digits = frequency

Equation 4 - Digits Calculation using Polynomial Conversion 

 

Frequency, in the above equations, represents the resonant frequency of vibration of the wire in 

the transducer (in Hertz) as determined by the datalogger. 

 

To convert calibration factors (pressure transducers are usually psi per digit) to other engineering 

units consult Table 4. 

 

NOTE:

 In LogView Sensor Settings, when output units are set different than inputs units, a 

conversion factor (see Table 4) is automatically applied to the gage factor of each sensor. See the 

LogView User’s Guide for more information on Sensor Settings.
