MANU-1075Automation Systems
The focus of this course is to help students to build a foundation for basic concepts of an industrial process control system. Upon completion of this course, students will be able to identify and explain the applications of different process instruments, final control elements and motor control devices. They will understand the typical process control loops and loop responses. Basic PLC and HMI programs will be covered. Aspects of designing a process measurement and data acquisition system will be addressed. Various industrial communication protocols will be reviewed, as well as Safety Instrumented System (SIS) standards.
