There are three different methods to insert faults: – Local fault insertion is done by accessing the fault panel on a particular device to activate faults as required. – Remote calibration fault insertion is performed by changing the calibration parameters of a device from the instructor’s computer over either the HART communication protocol (requires the appropriate modules). – Remote fault insertion is achieved by remotely modifying the state of I/O relays on a PLC from a computer or from a touch screen terminal. Industrial Realism To plan, monitor, maintain, and improve continuous production processes, instrumentation and process technicians and engineers need an in-depth understanding of basic industrial processes as well as their instruments and control devices. To prepare students for the workplace or to upskill current industry workers, practical experience with industrial components and communication protocols is important during their studies. Our industrial process training systems are a cost- and space-savvy way to bring the plant into your classroom. Complete Courseware A complete course program underpins the training systems. Over 40 illustrated courses guide students step by step through self-paced, autonomous practical experimentation. They cover theory and practice of measurement, control, and troubleshooting of temperature, pressure, flow, and level processes and their devices. Designed for training purposes, these modular systems enable teachers to create a wide variety of configurations to mimic real-life control loops. Extensive courseware guides students through the configuration, wiring, calibration, and troubleshooting of various instruments and devices.
