DUBLIN, Jan. 15, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — The “Process Instrumentation & Control Methods” conference has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.
This course starts with an introduction of Process Measurements systems and basic Fluid Dynamics which is indispensable for the following subjects that are directly related to all types of Field Instrumentation as they are the base for reliable Process Control.
Principles and several methods of Process Control will be discussed comprehensively. Methods to determine the response of typical type of Processes are the base for correct controller tuning. Selection of the correct type control valve and optimal tuning method is critical for efficient and safe Process Control.
The Process industry often indicates that the fluid control valve is responsible for 60 to 70 percent of poor functioning control systems mainly as a result of poor selection which can be related to a lack of understanding of the principles of the valve operation and selection of the correct characteristic. The problems are not limited to the valve itself but are also associated to the combination of the valve actuator, signal converter and positioner.
This training program provides an insight into the applied types of valves and actuators and guidance to ensure the optimum valve selection and operation. As indicated earlier, the field Instruments should be reliable to obtain a reliable measurement input for the Process Controller and so the properties, advantages and disadvantages for Flow, Level, Pressure and Temperature instruments are an essential part of this course.
Applied Accuracy Terminology is also an important subject as required to make justifiable comparisons between the different types of measuring devices.
Who Should Attend:
This course is intended for all who are interested in or involved with Process Instrumentation and Control and like to obtain knowledge for a better understanding and so also to be able to operate and maintain process equipment competently and efficiently.
This course is not limited to those involved with it in their daily job like process technologists, instrumentation supervisors and technicians, control system engineers, process operators, electrical engineers and supervisors, but also to those involved in the design, implementation and maintenance of industrial control systems.
