Description
SMC’s low cost, tabletop 3 Phase Separator training system delivers a wide range of basic and advanced technologies, fully integrated with Dynamic System Control software.
TPS 200 is a Desktop Three Phase Separator that utilizes standard industrial hardware, non-toxic oil and a PC-based DCS style control interface.
Fundamentals
TPS-200 system allows the user to explore more about the fundamentals of three phase separation. The oil, gas, water separation basics can be learned with this system:
- Physical layout (visual and practical)
- Flow vs. residence time (visual and theoretical)
- Flow vs. compositions (visual and using sim model)
- Pressure vs. flow/gas rates (visual and theoretical).
- Pressure vs. compositions (using sim model).
- Temperature vs. compositions (using sim model).
Activities
With the new TPS-200 system the user will be able to work and develop different skills using the following control systems:
- Transmitters (pressure, flow, level and interface level).
- Level Control (several sensor types, PID tuning and variable cascade control).
- Pressure control (PID tuning and several sensor types).
- Flow control (fluid flow control, ratio flow control and direct flow control).
- PLC system (PLC ladder may be viewed and limit switches).
- Safety Systems (ESD and cause and effect)
Separation Basics include:
- Physical layout – visual and practical
- Flow vs. Residence Time – visual and theoretical
- Flow vs Composites – using sim model (multiple); visual (2 component)
