Continuous process plants rely on Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) loop controllers as a primary method of achieving control of flow, pressure, temperature, level, and other measurable and controllable variables. Unfortunately, many PID loops can be difficult to tune properly and are not intuitive. Manual tuning efforts are time-consuming and offer little proof that an optimum solution has been reached. Estimates indicate that more than 65% of process PID loops are underperforming with up to 30% operating in manual mode; both of these conditions result in reduced process stability, product variations, increased energy expenses, and additional equipment wear.
Join us to discover how an intuitive 6-step approach to PID tuning results in improved throughput and yield, minimized energy consumption, and lessen defects.
In this webinar you will learn:
- How loop tuning directly affects the bottom line in a process operation
- Understand what defines a well-tuned loop
- How to rapidly identify and correct tuning loop performance problems
- How to apply the 6-step process
- How the 6-step process has worked in an actual application
