The workshop Have you ever wondered about getting a thorough introduction to the fundamentals of instrumentation, industrial automation and control; thus allowing you to work and perform simple tasks in this key area? In attending this workshop, this could be the opportunity to walk out with a great grounding in the basics of this exciting field which is rapidly changing the way all plants operate. The constant drive to cut costs means that as an operator you will increasingly have to have more skills and know-how in the plant instrumentation and process control area. The topics covered commence on day one with an introduction to instrumentation and measurement ranging from pressure, level, temperature and flow devices followed by a review of process control including the all important topic of PID loop tuning. Day two is occupied with PLC and SCADA systems where the important topic of industrial data communication networks is also examined – again from a very simple understandable point of view. Finally, the workshop is rounded off with a hands-on review of reading and interpreting simple plant documentation such as P&IDs so that you can see and understand the operation of the plant through the documentation. You will leave this workshop with a strong understanding of the key concepts in instrumentation, process control, SCADA and PLCs. Pre-requisites The workshop is presented in easy to understand practical language. All you need to benefit from this workshop is a very basic understanding of mathematics and some electrical theory. Contact us for comprehensive pre-course reading and preparation if you are unsure about your level of understanding. The fee for each workshop covers all materials including workshop manual, lunches and refreshments
