Programme Aims:
Analog Automation involves the use of continuous signals to control and monitor processes using technology such as analog sensors & transducers, controllers, actuators, proportional solenoids and variable-speed drives are utilized to control processes where precise regulation of physical variables like temperature, pressure, flow and level is required. These systems are typically deployed in applications where real-time adjustments are necessary based on continuous input data. It is commonly employed in industries where real-time process control and high precision are critical, such as chemical processing, oil and gas, pharmaceuticals, food, beverage production power generation, and water treatment.
The course is 10% theory and 90% interactive using practical based exercises and is delivered over 2 days.
Areas covered include:
- Principle of operation of PLCs
- Fundamentals of analog signal processing
- Essential elements of communication with PLCs via TIA (Totally Integrated Automation)
- Ladder logic-based programming encompassing analog inputs & outputs, signal scaling, comparison & conditional logic, timers and continuous control
- Data types & tagging philosophies
- Fault finding and resetting systems
The software platform is Siemens TIA using Siemens 1500 PLCs with integrated HMIs. The course provides a hands-on approach to the utilization of PLCs using tailored practical exercises based on real-life industry scenarios. These real-life scenarios can be tailored to mimic the learner’s area of employment.
Resources:
Analog material content will be provided to each learner prior to commencing the on-site hands on practically based course. Consuming this content is an optional choice for the learner but should be considered as self-directed learning. Consumption of this analog material prior to attending the course will enable learners to gain knowledge and understanding of the topics covered, terminology within this industry and allow more focus on the practical skill sets required to master the topic covered.
Duration: 2 days
