Session 10 – Objectives (Page 1) 1. Define terms associated with controllers: auto/manual switch local/remote switch setpoint tuning direct acting reverse acting proportional band/gain integral/reset derivative/rate 2. Define “bumpless” transfer of auto to manual/manual to auto control. 3. Describe the process for switching from auto control to manual control on a local controller. Instrumentation I - Session 10
Session 10 – Objectives (Page 2) 4. Describe the process for switching from manual control to automatic control on a local pneumatic controller without bumping the process. 5. Demonstrate various control skills, such as: make setpoint adjustments on a local controller operate a local controller in manual mode make setpoint adjustments on a remote pneumatic controller switch from manual to automatic control on a remote pneumatic controller without bumping the process. 6. Given a drawing or actual local pneumatic controller, read the chart and state the high and low range values. 7. Given a simulator or actual device, identify if a control loop is in control or out of control and identify the information used to make the decision. Instrumentation I - Session 10
Session 10 – Objectives (Page 3) 8. Given a drawing or actual device, identify and describe the operation of the following: local controller remote controller split range controller cascade/remote setpoint (RSP) controller ratio controller 9. Provide an application requiring the following devices: 10. Describe the role of the final control element as it relates to the process and the control loop. Instrumentation I - Session 10
Session 10 – Objectives (Page 4) 11. Describe three types of final control elements and provide an application for each type: control valve – manipulates a process flow (liquid/gas) in response to a control signal damper/louver – manipulates an air flow to control draft setting or temperature setting motor – starts or stops in response to a control signal. 12. Given a drawing or actual instrument, identify and describe the operation of the following: louver/damper final control element variable speed motor used as a final control element instrument air regulator Instrumentation I - Session 10
