For information regarding process control instruments look under this Yellow™ heading. To increase efficiency and revenue, an organisation may look internally in order to identify processes that can be automated. Automation lowers handling errors, repetitive manual labour, and miscellaneous non value activities. It also reduces rejects, increases quality and production, thus boosting productivity and profit. Automation should also be considered where worker safety is a concern, such as handling volatile and hazardous materials. This is where process control systems and instruments benefit industries such as food processing, manufacturing and packaging, printing, etc.
Engineering and process control firms provide consultation services to prospective clients regarding areas that they need to automate. These firms visit a client’s premises to survey processes that can benefit from automation and make recommendations regarding equipment and controls to install. Part of their service includes installation into the client’s establishment as well as providing 24 hour support and preventive maintenance as dictated by the client. As an example, controls that can be installed for clients in the food industry include: automatic blenders, mixers, colour inspection, colour sorting, moisture control, temperature control, humidity control, timers and counters. Other industries may require a different set of controls, but the premise stays the same - automation and process controls can provide efficiency, safety, and reduced costs.
Process control instruments can manage pressure, flow, temperature, density, mass, speed, weight and level. Some manufacturers also provide instruments and calibration services to process control systems already installed. At the end of all calibrations the client is usually provided with a summary report that includes the state of the instrument, the current condition of the instrument, and recommendations to improve performance and reliability.
