Description
Control Valves, Actuators and Positioners Course: Operation and Design. Course in Control Valves, Actuators and Positioners: Operation and Design. This course is intended for engineers, valve mechanics, maintenance personnel, instrument technicians and others responsible for the selection, sizing, installation, commissioning, operation and maintenance of control valves, actuators and positioners. This course begins by examining the role and function of control valves and actuators and provides a technical perspective on the operation of positioners for control valve operation. You will gain valuable insight into the working principles and construction details of the following devices:
- Control valves (sliding and revolving stem / quick opening, linear and equal percentage)
- Mixing and turning 3-port control valves
- Diaphragm actuator (high pressure air and low pressure air)
- Piston Actuators (Single Function & Double Function / Fail Open (FO) & Fail Close (FC))
- Rack and Pinion Actuators (Single Function and Double Function / Fail Open (FO) and Fail Close (FC))
- Scotch Yoke Actuators (Single and Double Action / Fail Open (FO) and Fail Close (FC))
- Pneumatic positioners (force balance, speed balance)
- Digital Positioners
- I/P Converters
The course then takes you through a series of process examples and solved problems that require you to:
- Disassemble and assemble all types of control valves and actuators using 3D and 2D models
- Identify the net effect of various control/actuator valve assemblies (direct action, reverse action, failure open, failure closed…)
- Change an actuator from a single-acting configuration to a double-acting configuration
- Change the control/actuator valve assembly from closed-break to open-break configuration
- Construct a fitting curve for the control valve
- Determination of flow rate and pressure drop through a control valve for various valve lifters
- Match the valve’s features with the given application
- Investigates the effect of selecting a larger control valve than required
- Investigating the effect of differential pressure on valve lift and actuator performance
- Determine when the positioner should be installed
- ,
It will help you develop the skills needed to ensure the smooth operation of your process plant and piping systems. This course also covers:
- Comprehensive graphics
- Sectional considerations
- 3D Animation
It gives you a virtual hands-on experience in controlling valves, actuators, and positioners. So if you think you have a good understanding of a topic in the course, you can test your knowledge by taking a quiz. If you passed, that’s great! If not, you can re-watch the videos and notes or ask us for help in the Q&A section. We promise you that even though this is a technical tutorial, you will be able to go through it easily, painlessly, but with understanding, and after completing it, you will not be a process control engineer or an experienced instrumentation technician. But you will be ready to become one if you love it and stick with it. Thank you again for your interest in our online courses. It is an honor to serve you and make sure you learn valuable information with us.
