Process Control & Measurement Trainer

Description:

A bench-mount trainer for teaching Process Measurement & Control through level, flow, temperature, and pressure.
The PT001 trainer includes all the required sensors and actuators to perform the full experiment list for teaching process control and measurement. Using PT001, the student will acquire better understanding and hands-on experience in process control.
The PT001 was developed for use with NI’s measurement and control platforms. It utilizes the platform features such as; real-time and FPGA processing, intelligent communication interfaces, rugged I/O modules, among others. The industrial I/O modules filter, calibrate, and scale raw sensor signals to engineering units and performs self diagnostics.
The curriculum covered includes teaching the principles of acquiring different physical phenomena, On/Off Control, PID control, Feedforward and other types of control used in the industry.

Curriculum Coverage:

• Acquiring Physical Phenomena
• On/Off Control
• PID Feedback Control
• Setpoint Profile Generation
• Lead-Lag Compensation
• Feedback/Feedforward Control
• Multiloop Cascade Control
• Ratio Control
• Flow Meters Comparison (with option)
