The GUNT Pressure Control Demonstration Unit offers a complete, hands-on introduction to the fundamentals of control engineering through a practical example of pressure regulation. Components are neatly arranged on a vertical panel with a large-format schematic to aid understanding.
Product Features
- This experimental unit provides a comprehensive experimental introduction to the fundamentals of control engineering using an example of pressure control.
- All components are clearly laid out on a vertical front panel for intuitive learning.
- Large-format process schematic helps visualize the control system structure.
- The controlled system is operated by compressed air supplied by the laboratory.
- Two in-line pressure tanks allow the construction of a second-order controlled system.
- Disturbances can be introduced via alternate air tapping using a hand-operated valve.
- Both pressure tanks are equipped with manometers for real-time pressure observation.
- Pressure is measured using a precision pressure sensor.
- A state-of-the-art digital industrial controller manages the control loop.
- An electro-pneumatic control valve serves as the actuator in the system.
- The controlled variable X and the manipulating variable Y are available as analogue outputs at lab jacks.
- External devices such as plotters or oscilloscopes can be connected for data recording and analysis.
- An optional instrumentation and control software (RT 650.40) with USB interface allows for visualizing process variables and executing control functions.
