These non standard signals are converted to a standard signal by a Transmitter. Different type of standard signals are used in Industrial Instrumentation. The measuring device has ohm resistor. As for current signals,they are converted to voltage signals like this. The transmitter regulates the loop current as per the sensing element. Transmitters for measuring other parameters will have the same possibilities for connection and communication methods, with the main differences being in the sensing element design of transmitter and electronic equipment will be same with slightly software modification.
The main advantage of a two-wire loop is that it minimizes the number of wires needed to run both power and signal. The use of a current loop to send the signal also has the advantages of reduced sensitivity to electrical noise and to loading effects. Since the receiving electronics connected to the transmitter is designed to ignore common-mode signals, the resulting common-mode electrical noise is ignored.
The sensitivity to loading effects is reduced because the current in the twisted pair is not affected by the added resistance of long cable runs. A long cable or other series resistance will cause a greater voltage drop but does not affect the current level as long as enough voltage compliance is available in the circuit to supply the signal current.
The circuit compliance to handle a given voltage drop from additional loop devices depends on the transmitter output circuit and on the power supply voltage. If 6 volts, for example, are needed to power the transmitter and its output circuit, then 18 volts of compliance remain to allow for wire resistance, load resistance, voltage drops across intrinsic safety IS barriers and remote displays, etc. These are not loop powered and therefore have a separate means for providing power by adding one or two more wires.
This preserves the ability to reject electrical and magnetic common-mode interference. Other data signals may also be impressed upon the same wire pair, or alternatively, various digital communication techniques can be used instead of a current loop, if required.

Hi Bro, Hru? God support to u and God bless u. Translated from portuguese to english: I have never seen a site with so much good information. Thank you very much. Any history behind? Also I would like to mention that the mA loop only draws what the transmitter output is. One practical consideration is that current signals can extend much further than voltage signals, allowing robust signal wire lengths of up to 1, meters. Most mA loops use two wires, but there are also three- and four-wire configurations that separate a positive supply from the output connection.
There are pros and cons to using a mA current loop. The pros are that the mA current loop is the dominant industry standard, is better for long distances, is the simplest to connect and configure, uses less wiring than similar systems, and is very easy to troubleshoot for common problems like broken wires.
