Controller
A process measurement controller is a device that maintains the output of process
variables within a set range. It uses feedback from sensors to adjust the output
when it deviates from the setpoint.
Process measurement and control is a crucial part of industrial systems, helping to
ensure efficiency and safety. It involves:
- Monitoring: Continuously monitoring process variables like temperature,
pressure, flow rate, and level
- Adjusting: Adjusting parameters to maintain the desired output
- Reducing waste: Minimizing waste by maintaining process variables within the
desired range
- Improving quality: Improving product quality by maintaining process variables
within the desired range
- Reducing downtime: Reducing downtime by maintaining process variables within
the desired range
