SOLTEQ® Equipment for Engineering Education & Research FLOW CONTROL TRAINER MODEL: SE 102 HE Flow Control Trainer (Model: SE 102) has been designed for students demonstration on various types of flow measurement devices as well as to give the students a hands on experience on how a flow loop can be controlled using microprocessor based controller. The equipment consists of industrial grade instrumentation to exhibit a realistic working environment of a standard industrial flow process using various types of measuring instruments and different kinds of control strategy. T The equipment is self-contained constructed on an epoxy coated mild steel frame with four lockable castor wheels. The instrumentation and valves are strategically located for easy access. For safety reasons, the control panel is protected against water splashes. The process piping are made of industrial pipes. are laid in separate conduit from instrument cables. Identification tags are provided for every major item found in the equipment. A mimic diagram is also included showing the flow of the process. PROCESS DESCRIPTION The system exhibits realistic response times using standard industrial process instruments widely used in industries. All electrical wiring is laid in flexible PVC conduit and instrument cables are screened. Individual starters to the pumps are provided. Power cables for the pumps The SOLTEQ flow Control trainer (Model: SE 102) has been designed for student experiments on the measurement and control of water flow. It is constructed on an epoxy coated steel frame with lockable castor wheels. Equipment for Engineering Education & Research A pump is provided for transferring the water from a sump tank through a pneumatic control valve before passing through a flow metering devices. A rotameter is installed or local indication of the water flow rate. The water circuit includes three parallel pipes, each with isolation hand valves and a flow metering device. Three flow metering devices, namely standard orifice plate, venturi meter, and magnetic flow meter are supplied. A calibration tank is provided for the purpose of flow meter calibration. Subsequently, the water flows back to the sump tank. A differential pressure transmitter is supplied for the measurement of pressure drop across either orifice or venturi meter. The pressure drop value will be used to calculate the water flow rate. Output signal from magnetic flow meter is connected to a microprocessorbased controller as its measurement input. Output o the controller is linked to the pneumatic control valve to manipulate the water flow rate. The unit is supplied with a chart recorder. All instrumentations supplied are of industry standard and all electrical wires are numbered for identification. The electrical wirings are laid in flexible PVC conduit. In addition, all instrument wirings are screened. The pump has its own starter whereas power cables for the pump are laid in a separate conduit different from the instrument cables. The control and patch panel are safely protected against water splashes.
