Lab-Volt Instrumentation and Process Control
The Lab-Volt Instrumentation and Process Control systems are designed for hands-on training in the measurement, control and troubleshooting of industrial processes. The trainers can operate independently, or be combined together in different configurations to simulate more-complex processes. The Flow, Level, Heat Exchanger and Analytic stations use water as the process media, while Pressure and Temperature stations are based on air. Student courseware starts with an introduction to the basic characteristics of main process variables, and proceeds progressively to the study of process fundamentals, calibration of sensing devices and transmitters, and the operation of microprocessor-based controllers. Closed-loop control of processes and troubleshooting exercises are an integral part of the training program, and computer-based training and simulation software provides flexibility when adding to or upgrading existing programs.
