Introduction

The Fundamentals of Process Control Training course provides a comprehensive introduction to the principles and practices of process control in industrial settings. Participants will learn key concepts such as control loops, measurement systems, controllers, and their role in maintaining optimal process performance. The course covers both theoretical foundations and practical applications, preparing individuals to effectively monitor and control processes in various industries.

Objective

Upon successful completion of this course, the delegates will be able to:

Explain the theory of process control

Identify all industrial process applications, control of process variables

Act safe and efficiently operate the process.

Recognize the most common variables controlled are pressure, level, temperature,

and flow.

Define many different methods used to control these processes, this monitoring and control is generically called process control. Level, pressure, temperature, and flow are all controlled in a similar fashion.

Discuss the difference between direct- and reverse-acting controllers.

Define common terms and symbols used in process control.

Describe the function of self-regulated and non-self-regulated processes."

Introduction to industrial instrumentation

Refresh knowledge of basic electricity, electronics and physics

Sensors and their use in the measurement of a wide variety of physical variables —such as level, pressure, flow, temperature, humidity, and mechanical measurements—are discussed in The use of regulators and actuators for controlling pressure, flow, and the control of the input variables to a process are discussed in Documentation as applied to instrumentation and control is introduced, together with standard symbols recommended by the Instrument Society of America (ISA) for use in instrumentation control diagrams.

Audience

This course is tailored for:

•          Electrical Operators, Technicians and Engineers.

•          Chemical Operators, technicians and Engineers

•          Managers, engineers, and technicians working in the field of instrumentation and process control.

It is anticipated that the prospective participant will have a basic understanding of

mathematics, electricity, and physics.
