The GUNT Pressure Control Trainer offers hands-on learning in industrial pressure regulation using real-world components and smart sensor technology. The system simulates both first and second-order control behavior using one or two series-connected pressure vessels. Air pressure is monitored and controlled using IO-Link enabled smart pressure sensors and an electropneumatic valve with a positioner. The integrated PLC with touchscreen or GUNT software provides full control and data visualization, making the trainer suitable for advanced instruction in process automation and Industry 4.0 environments.
