An Intensive 5-day Training Course
Process Measurement, Instrumentation & Control
- Format: Classroom
- Duration: 5 days
- Language: English
- Accredited: CPE, KHDA Certified training courses
INTRODUCTION
To control a process in real life, the efforts and skills of the engineer and technical staff should be grouped together. There are many alternative ways to control industrial processes. Moreover, there are enormous settings for the controller parameter. Therefore, a fundamental understanding of the principle of operation of a range of sensors/transducers and instrumentation techniques applicable in an industrial situation combined with an understanding and knowledge of process control techniques and tuning methods equips the engineer or technician with the necessary skills and makes them invaluable in their workplace.
In this EuroMaTech Process Measurement, Instrumentation & Control training course, Delegates will investigate the operating principles and concepts of instrumentation and measurement systems and will acquire the knowledge relating to the characteristics and properties of the variables being measured. Moreover, the delegate will gain an understanding of the Process control systems and methods used in a modern industrial system.
This EuroMaTech Process Measurement, Instrumentation & Control training course will highlight:
- Introduction to the principles and fundamentals of Process Measurement and Instrumentation systems and Process variables. Symbols and units used and sample calculations
- Principles of operation of Sensors and Transducers used for Temperature, Pressure, Flow and Level measurement
- Ultrasonic techniques for non-invasive process measurement
- Principles of Process Control and study of the main Control strategies used, leading to an explanation of the 3-term PID controller
- Explanation of a method used to ‘tune’ a PID controller
- Practical activities to design, build, calibrate and signal condition a typical sensor application
TRAINING OBJECTIVES
TRAINING OBJECTIVES
By attending this EuroMaTech Process Measurement, Instrumentation & Control training course, delegates will be able to:
- Have a solid understanding of the principles of operation of a range of sensors and transducers
