INDUSTRIAL AUTOMATION COMPONENTS Field Instruments Control Hardware Control Software
Automation : Typical installation . . . . SCADA Software Communication Cable Control Hardware Control Panel Field Cabling Junction Box Field Cabling Sensors Placed in the field
Automation : Advanced Technology . . . . SCADA Software Communication Cable Control Hardware Control Panel Field Bus Network Field Bus Scanners Field Cabling Smart Transmitters Placed in the field
SENSORS ( FIELD INSTRUMENTS ) Sensors with transmitters are the field devices placed in the field who actually sense the parameter and send the analog signal to the control hardware. The analog signals used are Ohm (RTD), mV (Thermocouple), 4-20 mA, +/-10 V, etc
WIDELY USED SENSORS ( FIELD INSTRUMENTS ) RTD : Output in Ohms (Temperature) Thermocouples : Output in mV (Temperature) Pressure Transmitters : 4-20mA, 0-10 V .. Flow Transmitter : 4-20mA, 0-10 V .. Level Transmitter : 4-20mA, 0-10 V .. Conductivity meter : 4-20mA, 0-10 V .. Density meter : 4-20mA, 0-10 V .. pH transmitter : 4-20mA, 0-10 V .. And Many more
