Boiler Control & Automation

This course provides a comprehensive understanding of boiler control and automation systems used in industrial and process plants. It covers boiler operation, process parameters, instrumentation, control loops, and automation strategies for safe and efficient boiler performance. Participants learn about pressure, temperature, level, flow, and combustion control associated with boiler systems. The course explains feedwater control, drum level control, steam pressure control, and fuel-air ratio control. It also introduces burner management systems, boiler safety interlocks, alarms, and trip systems. Participants gain knowledge of control valves, sensors, transmitters, and final control elements used in boiler automation. The course covers PLC, DCS, and SCADA-based boiler monitoring and control concepts. It also discusses combustion optimization, boiler efficiency, steam quality, and operational stability. Practical troubleshooting approaches for common control and instrumentation problems are included. The course is suitable for engineers, technicians, operators, and maintenance professionals working with industrial boiler and utility systems.
