Diseño, construcción e implementación de un módulo didáctico para la evaluación del comportamiento de sensores de temperatura, controlado mediante PLC y monitoreado mediante Intouch

Abstract

In chapter 1, the background as design development, construction and implementation of the Educational Module for the evaluation of temperature sensors, which serve as support in the formation of the student in Electronic Engineering from the Polytechnic University Salesian. In chapter 2, detailing all the theoretical foundations such as systems, processes, models, etc., where the training module is based. In chapter 3, training module hardware is described based on the explanation of each of the devices used in the system in addition to their respective electrical and instrumentation diagrams. Developing the software, which is mainly composed of the control program implemented by process temperature TIA PORTAL, in the S7-1200 PLC, with which we verify the performance and main characteristics of the sensors is also described type thermocouples J, K and RTD, based on the graph in InTouch application. In chapter 4, the evaluation of the behavior of the three temperature sensors employees results is done in the project based on error criteria, repeatability and sensitivity based on voltage measurements for thermocouples and resistance for RTD, plus Controller optimization, testing communication between the PLC / InTouch and the development of a guide for use and maintenance of the training module.
