Product training: Measuring devices, positioners and process controllers

Compact and practical

Enquiry about training

Content and objectives

The GEMÜ product training course "Measuring devices, positioners and process controllers" provides you with practical expertise on the design, function and application of modern control and measurement technology. We focus on electropneumatic positioners and process controllers as well as the associated measuring devices. You will learn how the systems are designed, how they work - and how they can be used safely and efficiently in automated processes. For an optimum understanding, we recommend that you complete the product training course on the relevant valve types beforehand.

Fundamentals of measuring devices, positioners and process controllers

Functional principle

You will learn about the basic functionality of electropneumatic positioners and process controllers as well as the appropriate measuring devices. This includes signal processing, feedback, control behaviour - and the connection to valve control in industrial applications.

Product advantages

We will show you the practical advantages of positioners and process controllers in the control loop: precise positioning, reliable feedback and simple integration into modern automation systems

Design and components of measuring devices, positioners and process controllers

Analysis of electropneumatic systems

You will gain an insight into the design of various GEMÜ controller types. We will familiarise you with the basics of control, air supply, signal processing and mechanical coupling to the actuator.

Use and safety functions

You will learn which safety functions are available for different controller types - such as fault diagnosis, self-test or fallback level - and when they are used.

Special variants and system solutions

You will receive an overview of special solutions, for example for EX zones, decentralised control or non-reactive control. We also cover modular expansion options.

Applications and areas of use

Industry-specific use cases

Positioners, process controllers and measuring devices are used in many industries, such as the chemical, pharmaceutical, food and water treatment industries. You will learn which requirements are decisive in the respective fields of application.

Technical selection criteria

You will learn how to select the right system - depending on the medium, temperature, pressure, signal type, connection standard or control protocol. We also take into account aspects such as compatibility with control systems or hygienic design.

Experienced. Certified. From the field.
