ESTE 275 - Instrumentation and SCADA

Credits: 3
LEC hours per week: 2
LAB hours per week: 2
Advanced control principles are covered in this course with a strong emphasis on instrumentation input/output calibration, wiring, and PID loop control. Students will setup network connections to remotely control level and flow in a process by using instruments (i.e. sensors) - used in the processing and manufacturing industries - to obtain process information for adjusting a process controller’s settings. This course will apply the skills learned in ESTE 270, ESTE 250 and ESTE 255 to demonstrate PLC and DDC control of the Process Level and Flow training equipment. Formerly: EST 285.
Prerequisite(s): Grade of C or higher in ESTE 270, ESTE 250 and ESTE 255 or instructor permission
