Venue: 148/150 Bode Thomas Street, Surulere-Lagos State.

This course aims to enable Technical personnel to understand the Instruments used in the industry and their application in control of process plants. Understand the operational principle of Instrumentation equipment/devices. Aside the generic understanding of instrumentation systems, participants have the opportunity of participating in hands-on practical demonstration and in the use of a real time laboratory process mini-plant.

Objectives

At the end of this course, participant will be able to:

  • Understand the Principle of measurement and control of process variables such as temperature, flow rate, level and pressure.
  • Understand the types of control valves, sensors, transmitters and switches; describe their characteristics and their respective applications.
  • Identify Instruments on field machines and in (PandI) Diagrams
  • Understand different types of process control structure/methods
  • Carry out operation, basic installation and maintenance of Instruments

Target group

Instrumentation and Process Engineers /Technicians; Supervisors, Maintenance Engineers/Technicians and Technical Instructors.

Methodology

Lectures complemented by hands-on simulation using laboratory process mini-plant and process real-time monitoring software.
