The document describes a compact workstation that has four closed-loop control systems for level, flow rate, pressure and temperature. The control systems can operate individually or be structured in a cascade control system. The workstation allows experimenting with different controller types and includes components like pumps, valves and sensors to simulate disturbances.

Compact Workstation
Level, flow rate, pressure and temperature closed-loop control systems

Function
The four control systems in the Compact Workstation can be operated
individually.
The level and flow rate control systems can be structured as a cascade
control system through the addition
of an appropriate controller.
The layout of the sensors and servo
drives permits experimentation with
both continuous (e.g. P, I, PI, PID)
and discontinuous action controller types (e.g. 2-point controllers).
The pump can either be controlled
directly or operated in controlledspeed mode.
The manipulated variable of the controller in the flow rate and pressure
control systems can alternatively act
upon a proportional directional control valve. A ball valve with pneumatic drive is built into the return
between the high-level container
and the lower reservoir. The pneumatic drive can be used to simulate
a load for switching on a disturbance in the level control system
or as an on-off valve for emergency
switch-off.
