There remuneration and other perks may be in International Standard according to their individual skills. PLC/ Automation Lab The PLC lab of SIIT contains Multiple Workstations equipped with Computers, PLC units and other Interfacing Devices to train students how to program and upload Ladder Logic Code. Students program ladder logic code using the RSLogix software, which provides a graphical interface representing conditional computer programming functions such as if/else statements. The primary objective of the PLC lab is to familiarize students with how signals from Input Devices (i.e. switches, sensors, etc.) can interface with PLC units in order to invoke certain actions (i.e. start/stop an electric motor, turn on a light, etc.). A PLC functions similar to the computer. A computer processes input (i.e. keyboard entries, sounds from microphones, etc.) and invokes a certain output (i.e. showing the letter you typed on the screen, sending a request through the internet, etc.). Similarly, a PLC unit processes input and invoke output, but the inputs to a PLC unit are usually devices such as sensors, buttons, switches, etc. The outputs are usually signaling to start/stop motors, turn on/off lights, sound a horn, etc. The lab is based on the International Brands Allen Bradley, Siemens, Honeywell, ABB and Omron etc of Programmable Logic Controllers, which are widely used in factories and other settings.

4 4 SCADA SCADA stands for Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition. It is not a full control system, but it focuses on the supervisory level.scada is a purely software package which positioned on the top of hardware to which it is interfaced, in general through Programmable Logic Controllers(PLCs) or any other hardware modules. SCADA can be used for Monitoring and Controlling the Plant or Equipments. The control may be automatic and sometimes initiated by operator commands. The primary interface for an operator is a graphical display usually through computer screen. The updating in Parameters in the field will be reflected or updated in computer screen. For Monitoring the situations in Plants the Operators or Engineers must have knowledge about SCADA software and its controls. Variable Frequency Drive [VFD] A Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) is a type of Motor Controller that drives an Electric Motor by varying the Frequency and Voltage supplied to the Electric Motor. Frequency (or hertz) is directly related to the Motor s Speed (RPMs). If an application does not require an Electric Motor to run at full speed, the VFD can be used to ramp down the Frequency and Voltage to meet the requirements of the Electric Motor s load. As the application s motor speed requirements change, the VFD can simply turn up or down the motor speed to meet the speed requirement. A VFD controls the speed of an AC Motor, which provides flexibility to the process since Speed can be changed easily for Process Optimization. Optimizing Motor Control Systems by installing or upgrading to VFDs can reduce energy consumption in facility by as much as 70%. Additionally, the utilization of VFDs improves product quality, and reduces production costs. VFD may enhance the user s profitability by improving the process, which in turn produces a fast Return On Investment (ROI).VFD s are used in Mechanical Field for controlling the

5 Pump Control Systems and also it is used in Electrical and Instrumentation fields. So now a-days engineers need to have awareness about the use and working of VFDs.

LabVIEW LabVIEW is a highly productive development environment for creating custom applications that interact with Real-World Data or Signals in fields such as science and engineering. It is a software development environment that contains numerous components, several of which are required for any type of test, Measurement, or Control Application. It can be used for acquiring Data and Processing Signals, Instrument Control, Automatic Test and Validation System, Embedded Monitoring and Control Systems etc. So students with technical background have an extra advantage if they have knowledge in latest design software like LabVIEW. Instrumentation Lab Instrumentation Lab in SIIT is capable of providing Practical Training in Pressure Gauge to modern Smart Transmitters. The Lab of SIIT is well equipped and capable of imparting training for the Operation and Maintenance of various Measurements & Control Systems of the Industrial Parameters like Pressure, Temperature, Flow, Level, Vibration, Conductivity etc. and the Final Control Systems like Control Valve, the Control Systems of DCS/PLC/SCADA etc. Instruments The familiarity with the imported Instruments imparts the work experience equivalent to long term apprenticeship in modern industries, during the training period itself. Therefore the students become capable of working as experienced persons immediately on completion of the course. Difference from others Other institutes including Engineering Colleges use just mere Training Kits fitted in demonstration boards manufactured by companies in their

6 6 practical labs and they have no live relation with real instruments using in Industrial Plants, but in SIIT we use only Real Plant Process Instruments for Practical Section to students, they are obtained from Real Industrial Working Plants, so they are real instruments than mere training kits. 1. This uniqueness makes SIIT s students also unique in Practical Knowledge. 2. This Uniqueness highly helps SIIT s students to score marks job interviews in both Theoretical Viva and Practical Test, because they are familiar with Real Process Control Instruments. 3. This Uniqueness helps SIIT s students to easily be simulate with working atmosphere immediately on entering into job in any type of sophisticated plant without anybody s help, because they are already familiar with the Real Industrial Instruments in SIIT Lab and Operational Working Mini Plants of SIIT. Two Operational Working Mini Plants The major attraction of SIIT Lab is the PLC Controlled Working Mini Plants [2 Mini Plants] with Pressure, Temperature, Flow and Level Control Loops in operation. They are equipped with five Control Valves, seven Electronic Transmitters, Solenoid Valves and other Process Control /Measuring Instruments. Students use the facility for On-Site Calibration of Transmitters & Control Valves, Loop Checking, PID Control Tuning, Instrument Tubing Practice and Cable Glanding & Termination Practice and to have a Plant Overview in general.
