This trainer teaches fault diagnosis and rectification in industrial processes. Faults are introduced by the instructor via switches concealed behind a locked compartment, to which the student does not have access. These switches provide both short circuits and open circuits and can also switch in or out circuit elements to simulate a variety of fault conditions. Additional faults can be inserted into the process through the replacement of working components with faulty ones, e.g. faulty flow switches; faulty relays; faulty solenoid coils and faulty control valve electronic circuit board. The process involves initially filling a header tank with water and then cycling the level between a set upper and lower limit, whilst simultaneously creating a demand from the header tank via two on/off solenoid drain valves into a sump tank.
Flow is produced by a pump and controlled by relay operated on/off solenoid valves which control:
The level of water in the header tank is monitored by float switches which open and close at the following points:
Designed for students studying industrial process maintenance, it can also be used as a process trainer in its own right, using either industrial process
Controllers or programmable logic controllers (plcs). A 34-252-1 plc board (supplied separately) is available for users to
Develop their own plc programs.
