AIT 215 - Process Control Systems
Credits: 4
Lecture: 3
Lab: 3
Introductory course in Process Control Systems design, operation, and tuning of Proportional, Integral, Derivative (PID) controllers for regulating flow, temperature, pressure, and level of industrial process variables. Includes manual control, feedback control, automated controls, analysis process setup, operate, and troubleshooting processes of control systems. Also includes typical Pipe and Instrument Diagram (P&IDs) symbols and tags along with the development of a basic P&ID drawing.
Course Outcomes:
Students will be able to:
- Interpret process control system documentation, including identifying components on a Piping and Instrumentation Diagram (P&ID), instrument tag, and instrument index.
- Complete setup of analog sensors and signal conditioning equipment.
- Adjust analog sensors and signal conditioning equipment.
- Test analog sensors and signal conditioning equipment.
- Complete setup of pneumatic proportional valves and I/P transmitters.
- Adjust pneumatic proportional valves and I/P transmitters.
- Test pneumatic proportional valves and I/P transmitters.
- Build a process signal loop system.
