The GUNT Flow Control Demonstration Unit offers a comprehensive introduction to control engineering fundamentals using a practical flow control example. All components are clearly arranged on a vertical front panel, supported by a large-format process schematic for easy understanding.
Product Features
- This experimental unit provides a comprehensive experimental introduction to the fundamentals of control engineering using an example of flow control.
- All components are clearly laid out on a vertical front panel.
- The large-format process schematic provides an aid to understanding.
- A pump delivers water from a storage tank into the pipe section.
- The flow rate is measured by a paddle-wheel sensor.
- The transparent rotameter enables the control process to be observed very clearly.
- The controller used is a state-of-the-art digital industrial controller.
- The actuator in the control loop is an electric control valve.
- A ball valve in the pipe section enables defined disturbance variables to be generated.
- The controlled variable X and the manipulating variable Y can be tapped as analogue signals at lab jacks.
- This enables external recording equipment, such as a plotter or an oscilloscope, to be connected.
- An instrumentation and control software (RT 650.40) with interface module (USB) is available as an accessory.
- This enables the key process variables to be represented, and control functions executed.
