Coupled Tanks Apparatus

Experiments:
Design and operation of analogue proportional, proportional + integral, or proportional + integral + differential control controllers
System dynamics in process systems
Steady-state errors and closed-loop transient responses
Ziegler/Nichols controllers tuning rules
Calibration of transducer and actuator circuits
Multivariable control
Flow control
Step-change tuning  
State feedback
The flexible design of the equipment allows the user to develop many other analysis and control exercises to suit their needs. It is good for extended or advanced control experiments, and is ideal for student project work.
