Process Control & Instrumentation is becoming an increasingly important engineering topic, since the subject plays a crucial role in the design, operation and maintenance in areas such as power plants and chemical and industrial process plants. Advanced Control Systems have advanced dramatically during the last decade. They become more modular and more sophisticated offering a vast variety of control functions for all the systems that operate within a modern “intelligent” facility. Enhanced functionally of the automation systems also means more complexity, interactive strategies, new technologies and systems management with resulting better control and improved reliability.
This course is designed to update the participants with the latest technologies in instrumentation and process control system. The course will describe the various types of sensors relating to level, pressure, flow and temperature. Also included is an in-depth look at control valves, actuators with associated accessories together with practical valve sizing and selection techniques. The topics of digital field communications and Smart transmitters form an integral part of this course.
A major part of the course is devoted to detailed exposition of currently used control valves, the associated terminology, valve performance, valve and actuator types, control valve accessories as well as to the correct selection and sizing of control valves for a wide range of applications. The course addresses the important issues related to valve installation and maintenance. In addition, this training course also utilizes an extensive collection of state-of-the-art, externally generated process management and video material concerned with all aspects of plant management, including smart wireless solutions to the collection of plant data. In addition, the subjects of digital control systems will be discussed with sessions on Distributed Control Systems (DCS) Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC), SCADA systems and Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS).
Upon successful completion of this course, the delegates will be able to:
· Apply an advanced knowledge and skills in process control and instrumentation
· List down the different technologies currently in use in pressure, temperature, level flow measurement
· Identify the types of control valve and use a system approach in actuator selection
· Determine the various process considerations for the instrumentation for industrial applications
· Review and apply the different types of control loop strategies and learn the features and application of Distributed Control System (DCS)
· Discuss the system components and operation of the Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC) and learn the configuration of the SCADA systems
· Acquire advanced knowledge on Process Safeguarding including safety instrumented systems (SIS), safety integrity level (SIL) and loop safety considerations
· Identify the various trends in flow calibration and apply meter proving and become acquainted with field communications
This course provides an overview for all significant aspects and considerations of basic and advanced process control and instrumentation for process control engineers and supervisors, instrumentation and control system engineers, automation engineers, instrumentation engineers and technologists. Further, process engineers, electrical engineers and supervisors and those involved in the design, implementation and upgrading of industrial control systems will also benefit from practical aspects of this course.
