Introduction to Instrumentation and Process Control Training Seminar

Training Process Control Personnel Can Save You Time and Money-Become More Efficient at Troubleshooting and Calibrating Process Control Equipment with National Technology Transfer, Inc. (NTT, Inc.)!

Testimonials
"The hands-on labs were excellent. Very instrumental to my learning. Bob has lots of energy and creates a non-threatening learning environment. I was not afraid to ask questions which is very important."

Course Description:

  • Hands-On training. Learn by doing-spend approximately 40% of the time actually working with various instruments and controllers.
  • Receive firsthand instruction learning to program, connect input/output devices, solve elementary and then more complex problems, plus troubleshoot.

Course Benefits:

  • Increased versatility.
  • Reduce downtime with effective troubleshooting.
  • Get a better command of your analysis equipment.

What You Will Learn:

  • How the various instruments measure temperature, pressure, flowrate, level and position, pH, weight and density
  • What causes errors in instruments, plus how to minimize and troubleshoot them
  • What the differences are between open and closed loop controls, feedback and feed forward controls, PLC, DCS and stand-alone controllers
  • How analog signals are produced, processed, and protected from noise
  • What Proportional, PI, and PID control strategies are
  • How to calibrate transmitters and tune controllers

  Agenda  
 
  • Basic Concepts (Purposes for control systems, Terminology, Signal types, Shielding & grounding, Signal conversion, Final control elements)
  • Piping & Instrument Diagrams (P&IDs)
  • Control Technologies
  • Basic Electrical & Math Concepts
  • Pressure Instrumentation & Measurements
  • Temperature Instrumentation & Measurements
  • Flow Instrumentation & Measurements
  • Level Instrumentation & Measurements
  • Density, Specific Gravity & Analysis
  • Manipulating the process
  • Troubleshooting
  • Controllers
  • Control Systems
Hands-On Training:
  • Density & specific gravity measurement
  • Sensor checkout
  • Hookup to calibration stands
  • Transmitter calibration check
  • Program/tune controller
  • Setup of differential pressure, temperature, and other process-simulation devices
  • Calibration or setup with hand-held calibrator
  • Checking current output with VOM and tracing around loop
  • Simulate and source 4-20mADC signals

Students work on specialized hands-on training equipment built specifically for this purpose. The trainers consists of a pneumatic supply and control equipment, DC voltage supply, differential pressure transmitter, a digital pressure gauge, a current to pneumatic transducer, and three mode controller.
Working on the trainers, students investigate different temperature measurement devices, calibrate a differential pressure transmitter, and construct a current signal loop and a full closed loop for tuning a three-mode controller. All mechanical and electrical components provide access for system troubleshooting. Students learn to use service tools and equipment such as supply pressure regulators, digital multi-meters, current signal generators, and various hand tools.
