MLT is a 4-day course that introduces participants to effective methods for determining optimal tuning parameters for regulation of process.

The non-oscillatory EnTech tuning techiques, based on Lambda concepts, are taught with a focus on minimizing process variability. Effectiveness is gained by the implementation of a tuning strategy that matches control element dynamics to process operating requirements.

Participants learn how to recognize acceptable/unacceptable control loop performance and to identify the most common source of problems. Fundamental tuning concepts, including the PID controller, process dynamics, valve motion characteristics (backlash and stiction), setpoint tracking and regulation, minimum variance, integrating processes, and level control are reviewed/demonstrated using case study expamples.
