About Multi Variable Control Trainer

Multi Variable Control Trainer

Edutek Instrumentation are offering Multi Variable Control Trainer Equipment. The Multi variable level control trainer is designed for teaching the basic level control principles and advanced study in complex systems for control engineering. It is a combination of two double tank systems, usually also known as Quadruple Tank system. The setup consists of supply water tank with two variable speed positive displacement pumps for water circulation, four transparent process tanks fitted with level transmitters, rota meters and flow dampers. These units along with necessary piping are fitted on standalone support structure. The process signals from level transmitters are controlled in mode through serial based dual loop controller.
