Final Control Element Pneumatic and Electrical Operated

Overview – Pneumatic & Electrical Control Valve Trainer

The Final Control Element Pneumatic and Electrical Operated Trainer is a specialized process control educational setup designed to study the operation, calibration, and response of final control elements such as electrical and pneumatic control valves. This advanced training equipment enables students to understand how control signals regulate flow, pressure, and level in various industrial automation systems.

Ideal for Engineering Colleges, ITIs, and Technical Training Centers, this final control element trainer bridges the gap between theoretical learning and industrial applications. It demonstrates the real-world performance of both electrically operated and pneumatically actuated control valves, allowing learners to visualize the role of the final control element in process loops.

Product Description – Final Control Element Educational Setup

The Final Control Element Pneumatic and Electrical Operated Trainer is built with two integrated systems — one for pneumatic control valves and another for electrical actuators. The unit demonstrates how control signals (4–20 mA or 0–5 V DC) operate the valve to adjust flow rates or process variables.

The pneumatic control valve section includes an air supply, I/P converter (current-to-pressure), positioner, and feedback mechanism, while the electrical section includes a motorized control valve with limit switches and position feedback indicators. Together, they help users study valve dynamics, response characteristics, hysteresis, and calibration.

Constructed with industrial-grade components, the trainer features a powder-coated steel panel, clear instrumentation layout, and safety protection circuits. It serves as a reliable lab system for long-term academic and industrial training use.
