Abstract: A survey of A.G.A. member companies experienced with transducers was conducted by the Automation Committee in 1968 and 1969. The purpose of the study was to define better the gas industrys problem with transducers and to make recommendations to assist in solving the problem. The study was completed under the direction of D. E. Jenks, Consumers Power Company. Based on a sampling of 18 gas industry members the most common transducer problems are as follows: 1. Temperature effect on sensitivity and zero. 2. Shift or drift in calibration without temperature or pressure fluctuation. The survey also indicated that 50% were not satisfied with present purchasing guidelines and over 90% of the companies surveyed would use an industry- wide guideline if available. The problem noted as the least common was that of component failure. As a result of this survey the Automation Committee selected a task group to prepare guidelines for transducers and flow computers.
