SCI-EDU790003
Description:
Computerized Level Control Trainer
Specification:
The Trainer provides a comprehensive experimental introduction to the
fundamentals of control engineering using an example of level control.
A pump delivers water from a storage tank to the transparent
level-controlled tank.
The liquid level is measured by a pressure transducer installed at the
base of the level-controlled tank.
The controller used is a state-of-the-art digital industrial controller.
The actuator in the control loop is a pneumatically operated control
valve with an electro-pneumatic positioner.
A ball valve in the outlet line enables defined disturbance variables to
be generated.
The controlled variable X and the manipulating variable Y are plotted
directly on an integrated 2-channel line recorder.
Alternatively, the variables can be tapped as analogue signals at lab
jacks on the switch cabinet.
This enables external recording equipment, such as an oscilloscope or a
flatbed plotter, to be connected.
Process control software is optionally available.
