Control of typical industrial processes....?

plz explain...

...and its advantages?





You'll have to be more specific than that.





Most industrial processes are controlled using PID loops. PID = Proportional / Integral / Derivative. Basically you determine what you call the 'setpoint' (like a temperature setting on a thermostat), and the control algorithm (PID loop) will do all the math in the background to make the system work.





Most 'process' signals are either 0-10V or 4-20mA.





But to learn any more than that you'll need to ask a more specific question.Control of typical industrial processes....?
Adding to Sunset's answer:


Having been in the Chemicals industry, and been around a lot of explosion proof equipment in Class 1 Division 1 Groups C%26amp;D areas, I must add that 3-15 psi is also a common signal.





Uncontrolled processes have a tendency to not work, or even blow up.
