Mining processes offer a diverse set of challenges for automated valves and controls. Proper equipment selection requires a full understanding of the difficulties associated with each unit operation, as well as a knowledge of the numerous equipment options available to satisfy those needs.
Capturing the performance of the overall outage, measuring the effectiveness of the strategy, benchmarking for maintenance and reliability comparisons, and updating the customers’ documentation are crucial to the success of future events and plant operations between them. If overruns occurred, the source of those overruns should have already been approved prior to execution but should be part of the review process as well. This will be fed into the lessons learned documentation.
Proportional regulators, also known as I to P or E to P valves, provide an easy and reliable way to convert a control signal to a pressure. They are essential in applications where precise pneumatic control is critical. While some proportional regulators are used straight out of the box with no configuration, others require tuning to perform in specific ways. This tuning process can seem daunting, leading to the reputation that these regulators are “more art than science.” However, for customers looking to customize the response of a product, field-tunable regulators are necessary. In this blog post, we’ll explore the benefits of tuning proportional regulators and how DAS software streamlines the tuning process for the Sentronic series of regulators.
