Instruments and Devices for Boiler Control Systems Webinar

The Instruments and Devices for Boiler Control Systems online PDH webinar is a part of our group of on-demand online webinars.

This webinar provides an introduction to instruments and devices employed in boiler control systems.  Both panel instruments and local devices and instruments are discussed.  Requirements are provided for controllers, recorders, totalizers, indicators, status lights, annunciators, selector switches, pushbuttons, and plant control stations.  You will learn about control valves, pressure regulators, solenoid valves, actuators, current-to-pneumatic converters, dampers, pressure relief valves, rupture disks, level instruments, flow instruments, temperature measurements, pressure measurements, electronic transmitters, electrical instrument switches, analyzers, flame detectors and continuous emission monitoring.  You will be introduced to recommended boiler control panel instrumentation as well as local boiler devices.

This webinar will give mechanical and electrical engineers and other design and construction professionals an introduction to the types and application of instruments and devices used in control systems for boilers and boiler plants.

This webinar is intended for mechanical and electrical engineers and other design and construction professionals wanting to learn about devices and instruments used to control boilers and boiler plants.

Learning Objectives

At the end of the webinar, you will be able to:

• Describe about instruments and devices for boiler control and boiler plant control.
• Understand the characteristics of digital, analog and pneumatic controllers and where they are employed.
• Explain the recommended control modes for flow, level, pressure and temperature control loops.
• Apply the requirements for boiler plant control stations.
• Apply requirements for local control devices and instrumentation.
• Understand when and where to employ concentric, eccentric, square edge, quadrant edge, segmental and annular orifice plates for flow measurement.
• Use the characteristics of flow nozzles, venturi tubes, rotameters, magnetic, positive displacement and turbine meters for flow measurement in the design of instruments and devices for boiler control
