logic controllers (PLCs).
Communication

Energy
The safe transfer of data from the process to the control station and from the
control station to the process is a key aspect of process control engineering.
Field bus systems are employed in the interconnection of multiple devices,
such as controllers, PLCs and actuators, with the control station.

- controller optimisation 1 manual for RT 060
Technical Description
- software-based controlled system simulation
This compact experimental unit offers every opportunity to learn the * comparison of different controlled system
fundamentals of control engineering through experimentation on a linear parameters
position control system.
The experimental setup is mounted on a housing which accommodates
all the electronics. A transparent protective cover permits safe
observation of the experiments. A carriage can be moved by a DC motor
via a toothed belt. The linear positioning is measured by a rotary encoder
and delivered as a voltage signal. The output signal from the sensor is
sent to the software controller. The output signal from the controller
influences the motor current. The motor is automatically shut down if the
carriage reaches one of the two end positions.
The powerful state-of-the-art software is an integral part of the training
system, embodying the principle of hardware/software integration (HSI).
It enables the experiments to be conducted and evaluated in a user-
friendly manner. The software has network capability. The link between Software screenshot: step response to change in reference variable with
the experimental unit and the PC is made via a USB port. P controller (permanent control deviation)
The well-structured instructional material sets out the fundamentals and Order Details
provides a step-by-step guide through the experiments.

Technical Description * closed-loop and open-loop control visualisation
Computer-assisted communication between automation components software
over a field bus is a standard approach in industrial control systems. - familiarisation with the system elements
The RT 450 training system works with Profibus DP. A Profibus card * Profibus card as communications interface
performs the function of the field bus master and serves as the * OPC server
communications interface (CIF). The field bus slaves – in this case the * system configurator
controller module and the PLC module - must likewise be field bus-
compatible. The components must be equipped with a Profibus module
to facilitate this operation.
One of the key features of the visualisation software, based on
LabVIEW, is a chart which is used to present visuals of time functions.
The software can also be used to operate and parameterise process
controllers (RT 450.10 and RT 450.11). The communications interface
(CIF) controls the data interchange between the software and the slaves.
Communication is bidirectional: changes made in the software are
transmitted directly to the slaves. Controller settings made on the
controller’s keypad are also transmitted to the software.
Data interchange between the software and the CIF is provided by way
of an OPC server. An OPC server is the standard interface for Profibus connections on RT 450
interchange of process data. 1 Profibus card, 2 controller module with Profibus module (RT 450.10),

The liquid used in RT 681 is water, and the gas is ambient air. A water
jet pump generates the negative pressure in the vacuum tank. The 1 CD with software for parameterisation and
negative pressure firstly draws water from a collecting tank into the configuration of the controllers
vacuum tank. Secondly, ambient air is drawn in and mixed with the water 1 set of instructional material
before entering the vacuum tank. The water/air mixing ratio can be
adjusted by way of rotameters and valves. The negative pressure in the
vacuum tank degasses the water again. A pump transports the water out
1 ambient air, 2 pump for operation of water jet pump, 3 collecting tank, 4 pump
of the vacuum tank back into the collecting tank. A control valve is used (vacuum tank), 5 level control valve, 6 vacuum tank, 7 water jet pump, 8 pressure
to influence the flow rate and thus the level in the vacuum tank. Another control valve;
pump circulates water from the collecting tank to operate the water jet F flow rate, P pressure, L level, PIC controller (pressure), LIC controller (level)

negative pressure in the vacuum tank is adjusted. The negative pressure Order Details
and level are mutually dependent variables. It is this dependence that
makes this multivariable control system so complex. 080.68100 RT 681 Multivariable Control:

Technical Description
Specification
With RT 682 the complexities of a multivariable
control system can be learned in a practical manner. [1] coupled level and temperature control in one stirred
The model for the controlled process is a typical tank
application from process engineering: A chemical [2] circuit with stirred tank, collecting tank and pump
reaction taking place in a heated stirred tank. The [3] heat recovery with heat exchanger
reactants entering the stirred tank are pre-heated by [4] stirred tank with double jacket and heater; level
the outflowing products in order to enhance energy display for tank and jacket
efficiency. [5] temperature control with heater and 3-way
Water is used as the product and reactant for motorised valve as actuators
RT 682. A pump transports the reactant out of a [6] level control with pneumatic control valve as
collecting tank via a heat exchanger into the stirred actuator
tank. The reactant is pre-heated by the heat [7] temperature controller and level controller
exchanger. A heater in the double jacket permits configurable and parameterisable with software
control of the temperature in the stirred tank. Another [8] 2-point controller for constant temperature in
pump transports the heated product out of the stirred collecting tank via external cooling water
tank via the heat exchanger back into the collecting [9] optional process control software RT 650.60 via
tank. A bypass in the inlet routes the flow past the heat Profibus DP interface
exchanger. A three-way motorised valve adjusts the
ratio between the flow heated in the heat exchanger Technical Data
and the flow in the bypass. This is a further method of
