PROCESS CONTROL & MEASUREMENT TRAINER
A bench-mount trainer for teaching Process Measurement & Control through the 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 a better understanding and hands-on experience
in process control.
The PT001 was developed for use with National Instruments measurement and control platforms. It utilizes
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
perform 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 are used in the industry.
The whole system is connected to the specialized control software that is implemented in LabVIEW graphical programming language.
