Process automation

Challenging – The process industry

Few industries have as many facets or are as interesting as the process industry, which produces a wide range of products for the most diverse areas of daily life. On the one hand, the chemical industry produces preliminary products for other industries. This group includes base chemicals, petrochemicals, polymers as well as refined and special chemicals. Key consumers include the automotive, packaging and building industries.

Even though the end products may differ, automation is making huge leaps forward in each of these areas. International competition and the resultant pressure to continually increase productivity as well as a continuously expanding range of variants and strict requirements for process and quality assurance demand automation solutions.

On the other hand, chemical products are used in the areas of health, the environment and nutrition. As well as the chemical and pharmaceutical industry, the process industry includes other sectors such as the biotechnology, paper and food industries.

Train efficiently

Festo – The partner to the process industry Festo is fast becoming a key partner to the process industry. It is only logical that the process automation learning system benefits from this know-how and is tailored to the requirements of different industries through its consistent modularisation: – Water supply and disposal industry – Food industry – Bulk goods industry – Chemical and petrochemical industries – Biotechnology/pharmaceutical industries – Paper industry

Why stop production to facilitate training? It is prohibitively expensive to shut down an industrial system to facilitate training. Comprehensive training in the individual areas of process automation requires industry-oriented model systems or training installations. „Learning by doing“ and „process orientation“ are two principles that are central to the successful imparting of the many detailed training aims in process technology. Simulation of a process engineering system on a PC provides the opportunity of using a simulation as an actual training system.

MPS® PA 204 Complete system


Control technology is clearly and practically explained using the P, PI or PID control algorithm. The temperature sensor – the reactor station uses a PT100 resistance thermometer – supplies a unit signal of 0 – 10 V via the measuring transducer. The controller approaches the setpoint temperature via the continuously controllable heater and keeps it constant.

12


Using a constant flow rate, the three raw materials are mixed to a recipe in the mixing station. The flow rate is recorded by means of an electronic flow sensor with impeller and additionally displayed using a variablearea flowmeter. The controller adjusts the necessary flow rate via the pump with analogue control.

Pressure control ensures constantly high filter quality during flushing. The pressure sensor with LCD display, analogue output and switching output always supplies the correct measurement variable. The controller ensures constantly high filter quality during rinsing via the proportional pressure regulator.

The filling level of the dosing tank is detected in the bottling station using an analogue filling level sensor. The controller regulates the filling level to the required setpoint value via the continuously controllable pump. The filling level in the dosing tank is kept constant during filling, which optimises the quality of the filling process.


Function The system is made up of the filtration, mixing, reactor and bottling stations. The filtration station filters a liquid. The filtrate is pumped from the first tank into the second tank through the filter using various process valves. The filtered liquid is then fed into the first tank in the mixing station. The mixing station mixes different recipes from three reservoir tanks. The finished mixture is pumped to the reactor station, where it is tempered. Depending on the recipe selected, different temperature profiles with different stirring times are activated. The bottling station fills the liquid into bottles. These bottles are transported to the filling position via conveyors. A pneumatic separator separates the bottles. The bottles are filled with different filling quantities from the dosing tank in accordance with the recipe selected.

Special training aims – Construction, wiring and commissioning of a system for process technology – Measurement of electrical and process-related variables such as level, flow rate, pressure and temperature – Design and commissioning of control circuits – Evaluation of the control response – Networking of process engineering systems – Process operation and monitoring, system management – Selection, application and actuation of process valves – Analysis of control processes and control circuits – Parameterisation and optimisation of P, PI or PID controllers – Drafting of open-loop and closedloop control programs – Process operation and monitoring – Inspection, maintenance and servicing

MPS® PA Stations

Filtration station

Function The filtration station filters liquids. The filtrate is pumped from the first tank into the second tank through the filter using a knife gate. The filtered liquid reaches the second tank via a butterfly valve with pneumatic semi-rotary drive. The filtered liquid can be pumped onwards to the next station using a separate pump. The filter can be rinsed using a rinse program. Regulated compressed air is additionally blown through the filter to loosen deposits.

Measurement and control

Sensors detect the filling level of the container in the filtering station. This permits lessons on simple control exercises for monitoring the pumps right up to complete control projects involving complex processes. Pressure control ensures constantly high filter quality during flushing. The pressure sensor with LCD display, analogue output and switching

14


output always supplies the correct measured variable. The controller with P, PI or PID control algorithm ensures constantly high filter quality during rinsing via the proportional pressure regulator. Control technology is clearly and practically explained in this way.

MPS® PA Stations

Shutting off, opening, closing The right selection of process valve, drive, drive accessories and control valve plays an important role in complex process sequences. The filtering station uses an extremely wide range of process components. All the valve actuators are actuated via a directly connected NAMUR valve.

MPS® PA Stations

Mixing station

Function The mixing station mixes different recipes from three reservoir tanks. The liquid from one of the three reservoir tanks is pumped into the main tank in a controlled manner by opening the respective two-way ball valve. The finished mixture can be pumped to the next station via a second pump – or pumped back to the reservoir tank.


16

Using a constant flow rate, the three raw materials are mixed to a recipe in the mixing station. The flow rate is recorded by means of an electronic flow sensor with impeller and additionally displayed using a variablearea flowmeter. The output signal from the flow sensor is converted to a standard signal from 0 – 10 V. The mixing station can also be actuated through binary means using the integrated comparator. The controller


adjusts the necessary flow rate via the pump with analogue control – using a simple two-point controller or various dynamic controllers such as P, PI or PID. This permits a clear explanation of control technology on various levels.

MPS® PA Stations

Always the right mixture The component mix of the mixing station offers a wide selection of typical components from process engineering. Pumps and process valves, various sensors for signal detection as well as electronic modules for signal conversion permit the right „training mix“.

Sensors for detecting the filling level of containers. With overflow protection thanks to additional sensors on each container, thereby virtually eliminating the possibility of overflow.

Complete Mixing station

Signal converters convert all analogue signals from the station to standard signals from 0 – 10 V. Practical for the purpose of experimentation: integrated comparators also supply purely binary signals.

MPS® PA Stations

Reactor station

Function The reactor station tempers a liquid. Depending on the recipe selected, different temperature profiles with different stirring times are activated. A cooling pump is activated to cool the liquid. The tempered liquid can be pumped onwards to the next station using a separate pump.


Sensors detect the filling level of the reservoir in the reactor station. This facilitates lessons on simple control exercises for monitoring the pumps right up to complete control projects involving complex processes. Exact adherence to the various temperature profiles when activating the recipes is achieved by means of temperature control. The temperature sensor (PT100 resistance thermometer) supplies a unit signal of

18


0 – 10 V via the measuring transducer. The controller with P, PI or PID control algorithm can approach the setpoint temperature values via the dynamically controlled heating unit and keep the values constant. Simple control exercises, for example control using the two-point controller, can be realised using the reactor station. Control technology is clearly and practically explained in this way.

MPS® PA Stations

Heating and stirring Key basic operations in many process engineering systems involve heating and stirring. The components of the reactor station are designed to permit a wide range of experiments in this area.

Infinitely adjustable heating with control signal from 0 – 10 V. A safe experimental environment permits integrated linking of the heater with the integrated temperature switch – thus ruling out the possibility of „running dry“ in a practical way.

Complete Reactor station

MPS® PA Stations

Bottling station

Function The bottling station fills bottles with liquid. The liquid is pumped into the dosing tank from the reservoir. The bottles are transported to the filling position via conveyors. A pneumatic separator separates the bottles. The bottles are filled with different filling quantities from the dosing tank in accordance with the recipe selected.


The filling level of the dosing tank is detected in the filling station using an analogue filling level sensor. The controller regulates the filling level to the required setpoint value via the dynamically controlled pump (0 – 10 V). The filling level in the dosing tank is kept constant during filling, which optimises the quality of the filling process. Various control algorithms such as P, PI or PID can be applied and optimised during experiments.

The characteristics of the control process can be modified using hand valves already integrated. Control technology is clearly and practically explained in this way.

MPS® PA Stations

Transporting, separating, filling Few segments of the diversified process industry are associated with such a wide range of end products as the food industry. All foodstuffs, whether dairy products, baked goods, juice, beer or wine have their own requirements with regard to the handling and production of the corresponding end products. Transporting, separating, dosing and bottling play an important role here. Optical sensors, adjustable using background suppression, monitor transportation on the conveyors of the filling station.

Complete Bottling station

The pneumatic separator ensures that there is never more than one bottle at the filling position.

The filling quantity can be easily adjusted by selecting different recipes.

Process automation – Compact Workstation

Compact Workstation with level, flow rate, pressure and temperature closed-loop control systems

Optimisation relative to your space requirement Maybe you‘re restricted in the amount of space you have available but you want each of your training workstations to offer a high level of complexity. If so then the Compact Workstation with four integrated closed-loop control systems is the solution for you. As shown in the flow chart, the individual control systems can be activated by simply repositioning the ball valves. The flexible piping system enables you to change the flow scheme or integrate other components quickly and easily. Function The four control systems in the Compact Workstation can be operated individually. The level and flow rate control systems can be structured as a cascade control system through the addition of an appropriate controller. The layout of the sensors and servo drives permits experimentation with both continuous (e.g. P, I, PI, PID) and discontinuous action controller types (e.g. 2-point controllers). The pump can either be controlled directly or operated in controlled speed mode. The manipulated variable of the controller in the flow rate and pressure control systems can alternatively act upon a proportional directional control valve. A ball valve with pneumatic drive is built into the return between the high-level container and the lower reservoir. The pneumatic drive can be used to simulate a “load” for switching on a disturbance in the level control system or as an on-off valve for emergency switch-off. Scope of delivery of the Compact Workstation (Basic version including manual without actuation components)

Piping and instrument flow chart An important part of project work in process engineering is developing a piping and instrument flow chart. A piping and instrument flow chart explains the electrical, measuring and control technology functions using measuring points and final control elements. The measurement variable or another input variable, its processing, its direction of action and directional specifications and positions should follow from the chart.

Hybrid processes

Hybrid processes

Boundless variety Qualification solutions and training factories for production and process automation. Tell us what you need – we‘ll design your ideal learning environment and establish the required dependencies at process level. We look forward to designing solutions with you for special topics such as: – Water treatment – Cooling and refrigeration technology – pH value measurement – Conductivity measurement – Pneumatics in process engineering, for example slide valve actuators with positioners, specifically for the paper industry.

MPS® PA, combined with MPS® stations

It is only logical that the MPS® PA (process automation) stations can be combined with stations from the greater MPS® family. This makes MPS® an interesting proposition for basic and further training in many industries which are dominated by process automation but still require elements from production automation. The well thought-out modular design with clear-cut interfaces protects your investment and facilitates adaptation to future developments in components as well as open-loop and closed-loop control systems. This means that the system can be adapted to new requirements.

Production automation and process automation

AFB – The modular concept factory for all hybrid production tasks

The learning system for all processes associated with production automation and process automation. – Production – Handling of seals – Packaging – Filling – Transportation and routing – Storage – Input/output The ideal solution for hybrid production process requirements in the food sector. The platform connects stations and elements from the MPS® Modular Production System with stations from the MPS® PA learning system and the Compact Workstation. The system is therefore completely modular and new processes and training content can be added gradually. Project work with hands-on training can take place at individual stations, on partially integrated production lines and in a fully integrated learning factory.

Customer-specific solutions

You have specific requirements? Numerous installations across the globe have given rise to a range of solutions with a particular focus on hybrid automation. An example of this is provided by Siemens AG Professional Education Berlin, whose mixing and filling station demonstrates how a continuous flow process is brought into line with a gradual container filling process. The students experience an operational process showing the entire sequence of an automated customer order processing system.
