Rapid advances in Instrumentation and Process Control technology have greatly expanded the variety of tasks performed by instrument technicians at industrial plants. They must calibrate, troubleshoot, and repair instruments ranging from pneumatic booster relays to microprocessor-based automatic controllers. To successfully perform these tasks without adversely affecting plant production and maintenance costs, effective training is essential.

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.

Below is a list of the product areas which are under the Instrumentation & Process Control training systems umbrella:

• Computer Control Instumentation & Process
• Flow Process
• Level Process
• pH Process
• Pressure Process
• Process Control
• Temperature Process
