SE-100-3 - Seminar on Modern Control Methods
Objectives
Process control technology evolves rapidly. This seminar will allow you to review traditional control techniques and explore new optimization methods. This will enable you to identify the techniques that are best suited to increase your plant productivity.
Who should attend
Anyone concerned with process or control loop performance: instrumentation technicians and supervisors, production managers, process engineers, electrical engineers, or project engineers. Managers can also appreciate the importance of loop tuning and the new tools that are available to improve plant productivity.
Schedule
From 8:30 am to noon and from 1:00 pm to 4:30 pm, every day.
