Diseño e implementación de un prototipo de planta con un control de nivel por presión hidrostática, comunicación remota y monitoreado mediante el software my open lab.

Abstract

A PID controller (Proportional-Integral-Derivative Controller) is a feedback control mechanism widely used in industrial control systems. This calculates the error or desviation between a measured value and a desired value. In this project, A PID controller was applied to industrial plant prototype with hydrostatic pressure level control. Using a pressure transmitter to measure the pressure in bares (bar) inside the tank and a Variable frequency drive to control the rotational speed of an alternating current (AC) motor, a PID controller was programmed to control the level in centimeters (cm) of the fluid inside the tank using the MYOPENLAB software, these measured values were verified using the pressure equation to calculate the fluid height inside the tank. Seeing the lubricant workshop "El Alemán" needs in that it requires a type of control where don’t operate manually the residual oil of the cars, this project allows to reduce the risks of serious accidents like burns of different types by the handling of these oils.
