Course Description
This 3-day Instrumentation and Process Control course covers typical field devices and instruments for measuring and controlling variables in process control. Participants will be introduced to closed-loop feedback control and PID functions. This course also introduces the Programmable Logic Controller (PLC), and Distributed Control Systems (DCS).
Participants will have an opportunity to build basic PLC ladder logic programs using an Allen-Bradley based PLC simulation software, and use Control Loop Simulation software to explore responses and experiment with PID settings.
Participants will need to bring a PC laptop. Prior to the course participants will be provided with The Control Loop Simulation software. Participants will also be given detailed instructions for the download and installation of the PLC Simulation program LogixPro® 500.
Please note: The PLC and Control Loop Simulation software will only operate in a WINDOWS environment.
(Optional) Participants with MAC OS laptops will participate in instructor-led demonstrations, but not be able to perform individual hands-on experimentation.
A complete set of course materials and lunch is included in the Essentials of Instrumentation & Process Control course.
