Oil Heater Average Value Control

Overview

Oil heaters are used in the petrochemical and pharmaceutical industries to control the temperature of crude and reagent inside storage tanks and keep it within a certain range. Since the temperature of each point in the tank varies, you can avoid having to control the temperature of individual points by taking the average temperature and using the result as a control input value. With conventional controllers it was necessary to install several external computing units, but with the SMARTDAC+ measuring and control station the averaging is performed with an internal computing function, and the result can be input for controlling temperature.

Process outline

  • Input from multiple temperature sensors installed inside of the tank
  • Calculate averaged temperature value from six varying points
  • Carries out temperature control by using the average as a control input value

    Chemical plants rely on continuous and batch production processes, each posing different requirements for a control system. A continuous process calls for a robust and stable control system that will not fail and cause the shutdown of a production line, whereas the emphasis with a batch process is on having a control system that allows great flexibility in making adjustments to formulas, procedures, and the like. Both kinds of systems need to be managed in available quality history of product, and to be able to execute non-routine operations. With its extensive product portfolio, experienced systems engineers, and global sales and service network, Yokogawa has a solution for every plant process.
