#SE-120-2E, Duration: 2 days
Objectives:
In a typical plant, over 75% of assets are tied to control
systems. Performance monitoring results in a steady and continuous
improvement in the product quality, cost reduction, throughput, and waste
reduction in process plants. Tracking the performance, determining plant or
unit health becomes essential. Also, directing your resources in the areas of
the plant where they are really needed will directly have an impact on the
costs. Performance monitoring identifies the areas in your plant where the
greatest economic gains are possible.
Who Should Attend:
Anyone concerned with the performance of processes or
control loops. Instrumentation technicians, and supervisors, production
managers, process, electrical, and project engineers. Management can also
appreciate the importance of loop tuning and the new tools available to
achieve objectives of today and meet the challenges of tomorrow.
This seminar will allow you to define what are the KPI (key performance
indices) for the different areas in your plant. You will learn about most
common performance indicators, how to benchmark your process, how to identify
process and equipment problems, how to pinpoint operation problems…
