Rationale:

Number of components are used in chemical process industries for automation; both in the

field and in the control room. It is essential for a diploma engineer to have a thorough knowledge of

these components from calibration, testing and maintenance point of view.

Automation is becoming increasingly important in all walks of life and has opened new

prospects of job employment. The subject, classified as elective under Instrumentation covers all

such automation applications, conventional and advanced sensors used for this purpose.

The topic- Project engineering is also covered so that the diploma engineer does not feel

handicapped while interpreting the documentation for new plant is done or if existing plant is to be

expanded.

Objectives:

The Students will be able to:

1) Be able to identify various control system components and will be able to test and

calibrate them.

2) Understand the automation requirements of chemical industries and construction industry

in particular.

3) Be able to interpret process flow diagrams, will be able to prepare documents required in

projects (New or Expansion)
