Process automation

Few industries have as many fac-ets or are as interesting as the proc-ess industry, which produces a wide range of products for the most di-verse areas of daily life.

On the one hand, the chemical indus-try produces preliminary products for other industries. This group in-cludes base chemicals, petrochemi-cals, polymers as well as refined and special chemicals. Key consumers in-clude the automotive, packaging and building industries.

On the other hand, chemical prod-ucts are used in the areas of health, the environment and nutrition. As well as the chemical and pharmaceu-tical industry, the process industry includes other sectors such as the biotechnology, paper and food in-dustries.

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

Train efficiently

Festo – The partner to the process industry

Festo is fast becoming a key part-ner to the process industry. It is only logical that the process automation learning system benefits from this know-how and is tailored to the re-quirements of different industries through its consistent modularisa-tion:

– Water supply and disposal industry – Food industry

– Bulk goods industry

– Chemical and petrochemical indus-tries

– Biotechnology/pharmaceutical industries

– Paper industry

Why stop production to facilitate training?

It is prohibitively expensive to shut down an industrial system to facili-tate training. Comprehensive train-ing in the individual areas of process automation requires industry-ori-ented model systems or training in-stallations. „Learning by doing“ and „process orientation“ are two princi-ples that are central to the success-ful imparting of the many detailed training aims in process technology. Simulation of a process engineering system on a PC provides the oppor-tunity of using a simulation as an ac-tual training system.

Fluid Lab

®

_-PA

Fluid Lab®_{-PA can be used to teach}

and demonstrate the fundamentals of control technology. The main com-ponents required for actuating the MPS®_{PA stations using a PC are the}

„EasyPort D/A“ and the Fluid Lab®

-PA software.

Fluid Lab®_{-PA can be easily installed}

on any Microsoft Windows operat-ing system.

Key features

Three main functions are integrated in Fluid Lab®_{-PA in combination with}

the EasyPort D/A: Measurement

For detection and evaluation of measured variables from 8 digital/ 4 analogue input signals. Open-loop control

For binary or continuous control of 8 digital/2 analogue outputs. Closed-loop control

For freely selectable closed-loop con-trol functions such as 2-point, P, I, PI and PID.

Actual process or simulation All exercises and experiments can be performed online on the actual proc-ess in conjunction with the station or offline using the pre-integrated simulation.

„Settings“ menu item

The following parameters can be set here for the four analogue input channels and the sensors connected to them:

– Factor – Offset – Filter – Inversion

The analogue and binary output sig-nals can also be switched and the signal states of the inputs read off. General PC system settings can also be made here.

„Process Sequence“ menu item The process sequence of each sta-tion can be easily started from Fluid Lab®_{-PA. All of the process steps are}

visualised and can be monitored on the flow chart.

„Measuring and Control“ menu item All the functions of the MPS®_PA

station can be clearly and directly controlled. The states of the proc-ess valves, pumps and sensors are graphically recorded, which means they can be directly evaluated. The following functions are provided for recording the sensor characteristics and determining the step response: – Selection of measuring channels – Factor for physical scale – Adaptation of the time scale – Display of the input signals – Setting of output signals, switching

on/off of the manipulated variable – Printing of the measured value

dis-play or saving as a .jpg file „Analysis“ menu item Analyses of a wide range of proc-ess components can be directly per-formed using predefined exercises, for example:

– Recording of sensor characteristics – Recording of pump characteristics – Recording of heating

characteris-tics

This permits a fast and thorough un-derstanding of the typical process components.

„2-Point Controller“ and „Continuous Controller“ menu item For easy parameterisation of the re-quired controller with an immedi-ate effect on the process. One click of the mouse starts various control-ler functions for the selected control system. Documentation of the con-troller parameters is also straight-forward. The measured values and characteristic curve profiles can be easily printed out.

_{PA 204 Complete system}

Control technology is clearly and practically explained using the P, PI or PID control algorithm. The temper-ature sensor – the reactor station us-es a PT100 rus-esistance thermometer – supplies a unit signal of 0 – 10 V via the measuring transducer. The con-troller approaches the setpoint tem-perature via the continuously control-lable heater and keeps it constant.

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 addi-tionally displayed using a variable-area flowmeter. The controller ad-justs the necessary flow rate via the pump with analogue control.

Pressure control ensures constant-ly high filter quality during flushing. The pressure sensor with LCD dis-play, analogue output and switching output always supplies the correct measurement variable. The control-ler ensures constantly high filter quality during rinsing via the propor-tional 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.

(13)

Function

The system is made up of the filtra-tion, mixing, reactor and bottling sta-tions. The filtration station filters a liquid. The filtrate is pumped from the first tank into the second tank through the filter using various proc-ess valves. The filtered liquid is then fed into the first tank in the mixing station. The mixing station mixes different recipes from three reser-voir tanks. The finished mixture is pumped to the reactor station, where it is tempered. Depending on the recipe selected, different tempera-ture profiles with different stirring times are activated. The bottling sta-tion 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.

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 fil-tered 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 pro-gram. 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 constant-ly high filter quality during flushing. The pressure sensor with LCD dis-play, analogue output and switching

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

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 sec-ond pump – or pumped back to the reservoir tank.

Measurement and control 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 addi-tionally displayed using a variable-area 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 in-tegrated 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.

(17)

Always the right mixture The component mix of the mixing station offers a wide selection of typ-ical components from process engi-neering. 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 lev-el of containers. With overflow pro-tection thanks to additional sensors on each container, thereby virtually eliminating the possibility of over-flow.

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 sta-tion using a separate pump.

Measurement and control 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 tem-perature profiles when activating the recipes is achieved by means of temperature control. The tempera-ture sensor (PT100 resistance ther-mometer) supplies a unit signal of

0 – 10 V via the measuring transduc-er. 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. Sim-ple control exercises, for examSim-ple control using the two-point control-ler, can be realised using the reactor station. Control technology is clearly and practically explained in this way.

(19)

Heating and stirring

Key basic operations in many proc-ess engineering systems involve heating and stirring. The compo-nents of the reactor station are de-signed to permit a wide range of ex-periments 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.

Signal converters convert all ana-logue signals from the station to standard signals from 0 – 10 V. Prac-tical for the purpose of experimen-tation: integrated comparators also supply purely binary signals. Stirrer with DC motor.

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.

Measurement and control The filling level of the dosing tank is detected in the filling station us-ing an analogue fillus-ing 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.

(21)

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 cor-responding end products. Transport-ing, separatTransport-ing, dosing and bottling play an important role here.

Optical sensors, adjustable using background suppression, monitor transportation on the conveyors of the filling station.

The filling quantity can be easily ad-justed by selecting different recipes. The pneumatic separator ensures

that there is never more than one bottle at the filling position.

Process automation – Networked system

Function

A networked system enables level control, flow rate control, pressure control and temperature control sys-tems to be operated simultaneously. Each station is equipped with a Sie-mens DR19 and can therefore also be operated individually. The sta-tions are connected to the host com-puter (PC) via Profibus DP. Access to the process variables of all sta-tions is provided by the operation and visualisation software InTouch or WinCC.

Step by step to greater complexity Training starts with individual groups of students at the individual stations tackling tasks of similar complexity. The complexity can be gradually in-creased later by merging the stations into one system.

Training aims

This system complements the train-ing aims of the Compact Worksta-tion.

– Commissioning and maintenance personnel:

Realizing bus networks. From plan-ning, design and configuration through to realisation. – Operators:

Process operation, monitoring and performance training as part of system management.

The networked system can be sup-plied as a version with 4 stations (level control, flow rate control, pres-sure control and temperature con-trol) or as a version with 3 stations (no pressure control).

In both cases, a connecting station comprising a pump and 8 x 2/2-way solenoid valves controls the flow of water between the stations. Six or eight capacitive sensors (depend-ing on whether there are 3 stations or 4 stations respectively) monitor the level of the containers. Supplied with a SIPART DR19 controller and S7-313-2DP.

Integrated systems:

from the control station to the field Modern communication technology enables you to „see“ the sensor from the control room. The critical ques-tion remains as to which signals are relevant for display or which inter-vention options should be made accessible to individual groups of people. The system provides a quick insight into complex relationships and points to trends in the latest technologies and methods through the use of hardware and software from market leaders.

SIMATIC WinCC is a PC-based con-trol and monitoring system designed for visualising and controlling proc-esses, sequences and machines. InTouch is an interactive system for visualising, monitoring and con-trolling industrial processes on IBM compatible computers.

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 sys-tems can be activated by simply re-positioning the ball valves. The flex-ible piping system enables you to change the flow scheme or integrate other components quickly and easily. Function

The four control systems in the Com-pact 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 con-troller in the flow rate and pressure control systems can alternatively act upon a proportional directional con-trol valve. A ball valve with pneu-matic drive is built into the return between the high-level container and the lower reservoir. The pneu-matic 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

Can be equipped with accessories for controllers, control unit and/or touchpanel. It can also be converted from the ER format to DIN A4 format at any time by the user. The activa-tion and/or control devices can be replaced in just seconds.

Pneumatic drive

With ball valve and signal box. Train-ing aims: Design and application ar-eas of various metering and shut-off devices when controlling the flow of liquids.

Intelligent in the field – closedloop control with the CPX/ FEC valve terminal and the FED 120 touchpanel

The Festo Front End Controller with integrated web server and Ethernet interface is ideally suited to current communication tasks.

Piping and instrument flow chart An important part of project work in process engineering is develop-ing a pipdevelop-ing and instrument flow chart. A piping and instrument flow chart explains the electrical, meas-uring and control technology func-tions using measuring points and final control elements. The measure-ment variable or another input vari-able, its processing, its direction of action and directional specifications and positions should follow from the chart.

Visualisation with WinCC or InTouch on request.

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 spe-cial topics such as:

– Water treatment – Cooling and refrigeration

technology

– pH value measurement – Conductivity measurement – Pneumatics in process

engineer-ing, for example slide valve actua-tors 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 automa-tion.

The well thought-out modular de-sign with clear-cut interfaces pro-tects 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

Customer-specific solutions The learning system for all processes

associated with production automa-tion and process automaautoma-tion. – Production

– Handling of seals – Packaging – Filling

– Transportation and routing – Storage

– Input/output

The ideal solution for hybrid pro-duction process requirements in the food sector. The platform con-nects stations and elements from the MPS®_{Modular Production}

Sys-tem with stations from the MPS®_PA

learning system and the Compact Workstation.

The system is therefore complete-ly modular and new processes and training content can be added grad-ually. Project work with hands-on training can take place at individual stations, on partially integrated pro-duction lines and in a fully integrated learning factory.

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 sta-tion demonstrates how a continu-ous flow process is brought into line with a gradual container filling proc-ess. The students experience an op-erational process showing the entire sequence of an automated customer order processing system.
