The Level Control Trainer is an advanced process control educational setup designed to study the working of closed-loop liquid level control systems. This trainer helps students understand how liquid levels are measured, controlled, and maintained in industrial processes using sensors, controllers, and actuators.
Ideal for Engineering Colleges, Polytechnics, ITIs, and Research Laboratories, the level control lab equipment provides hands-on experience with feedback control principles, system response analysis, and process optimization techniques. It serves as a vital training tool for those studying instrumentation, chemical, and process control engineering.
The level control trainer consists of a transparent process tank, water reservoir, level transmitter, control valve, pump, and an electronic PID controller. It enables students to set up open-loop and closed-loop control experiments and observe system behavior under varying load conditions.
This process control level trainer allows the measurement of level variations using a differential pressure transmitter or capacitance probe. The system provides real-time feedback to the controller, which adjusts the control valve to maintain the desired set-point level automatically.
Mounted on a sturdy, powder-coated frame, this level control test rig ensures durability, safe operation, and easy visualization of the process. It’s designed to simulate real-world industrial level control systems, helping learners bridge theory and practice.
