Process Control Training
Builds a better understanding of the components of a process control system.
Suggest this intensive topical program to electronic and instrumentation technicians, as well as electricians already working with process control equipment who need to upgrade their skills. Trainees learn everything from systems operation to maintenance procedures to troubleshooting with the process control training program.
As a prerequisite, students should be proficient in mathematics through algebraic equations, and have a basic, working knowledge of the principles of electricity, test equipment, electronic components, circuits, and troubleshooting.
Upon completion of the process control training program, they'll be able to:
- Relate the role of the controller in a process control system.
- Describe how the various solid state logic systems are used in industrial control applications.
- Describe temperature, pressure, flow, humidity, weight and level applications, measurement, and control techniques.
- Discuss the operation of a numerical control system, motor control systems, programmable controllers, and their relationship to computers and robots.
