Flow and Level Cascade Process Trainer Model PCT 028

Sci-tech Flow and Level Cascade Process Trainer Model PCT 028 is designed to enhance student understanding of the operating principal of the industrial process control of level cascade flow technology.

Using scaled down miniature industrial flow and level control plant, consisting of two water tanks, upper and lower tanks, with circulating pump which will circulates the water for lower tank to upper tank, if the level of the upper tank reaches the required level, then the bypass valve starts opening to divert the flow back to the pump inlet. Student can experience the method of adjusting the bypass valve and experience the application of the plant system.
