Modular Mixing Plant

Description

  • Modular process plant for the investigation of system behavior
  • Transparent pipe sections for optical access
  • Bypasses and valves allow the emulation of error scenarios

Methods

  • Parameter identification of module behavior
  • Generation of faults (leakage, clogging) in the modules for the validation of various methods of fault diagnosis (e.g. soft sensors and data conflicts)

Technology

  • magnetically coupled centrifugal pump
  • three-head piston diaphragm pump
  • three identical progressing cavity pumps
  • two mixing modules with static mixers
  • Recording of pressure differences, volume flows, filling levels and rotaional speeds
  • electric ball valves for opening bypasses and throttling the mixers
  • Control and regulation in real time via dSpace system
