CD Automation announced the distribution of Lumel’s RE92 temperature and process controller. The advanced dual loop controller is ideally suitable for the most demanding industrial control ...

CS series process control modules enable PID loop control of any process without using a PLC. A variety of modules are available for temperature, flow, or pressure control. Single- and dual-loop ...

Proportional-integral-derivative (PID) control is one of the most common types of automatic control used in the power industry. A PID controller continuously ...

CD Automation tries to simplify really geeky topics such as PID loop control. The engineers of CD Automation have created new software to sit on the REVO human machine interface (HMI) touch panel ...

PID loops are a central component of modulating boiler control systems with applications ranging from basic steam header pressure control to cascading 3-element drum level control. A modern ...

It’s not, “You say ‘tomato’ and I say ‘tomahto.’ ” With advanced process controls (APCs), you either know what they are or you don’t. If you do know, you know they give for-real, money-in-your-pocket ...

Except, that is, “when you consider the aging workforce and the institutional knowledge of processes and instrumentation that has been slipping away.” Thus, advances in ...

For many engineers, the process of tuning a servomotor is a mysterious black art. But the procedure needn't be painful. Just a modest amount of knowledge can bring familiarity with some of the ...

There are two types of motion control engineers: Those who are comfortable tuning a servo loop, and those who aren't. The latter basically, have two options. The first is to use a non-servo device ...

Good building mechanical design requires a firm grasp of the mechanical engineering fundamentals (thermodynamics, psychrometrics, the fan laws, etc.). The same can be said about the BAS design needed ...
