Tune, Optimise, Excel: A Suite of PID Study Machines

These compact PID study equipment are designed for benchtop use.

Level Control System

SKU# CT5971

The Level system consists of a reservoir water tank, a variable speed pump, a pressure-based level sensor, and clear process vessel with a scale. A proportional valve provides the process vessel drain. An overflow pipe in the process vessel prevents it from being overfilled and the system allows students to adjust the pump speed and valve opening.
