Description

The Basic Process Trainer is a single loop system allowing the study of the principles of process control, using liquid level and flow rates as the measured process variables. The system is a completely self-contained, low pressure flowing water circuit supported on a bench-mounted panel, making it suitable for individual student work or for group demonstrations.

Features

• Contains a selection of level & flow sensors & indicators
• Flow controlled by linear motorised control valve
• On/Off and proportional control
• P, PI and full PID control with autotune facility
• Couples with Temperature Trainer for dual loop control
• Modern push fittings
• Water used as the process fluid
• Comprehensive lab notes and Discovery software
