Compressor package control
Open suction and recycle, start unloaded, prove rotor speed and place the machine on line without bypassing process permissives.
What technicians actually practise
Control problems with process consequences
Every flagship combines PLC logic, dynamic machine state, failure conditions and deterministic grading. Learners must make the process safe—not just energise a coil.
ESD and blowdown
A fire-and-gas or high-pressure demand latches shutdown, isolates running paths and opens emergency depressurisation.
Burner management foundations
The boiler startup lab covers purge proof, pilot and ignition timing, flame confirmation, main fuel admission and flame-loss trip.
Pipeline and process patterns
Flushing valves, chemical dosing, analog pressure scaling, level alarms and pump alternation build the reusable controls behind pipeline auxiliaries.
Scenario library
Start with the vertical. Build the transferable skills.
Gas Compressor ESD & Blowdown
Start on recycle, prove speed, build discharge pressure, respond to fire-and-gas and depressurise after ESD.

Open scenario Burner Startup Sequence
Prove purge air, time pilot ignition, confirm flame and latch a safe trip on flame or water loss.

Coordinate timed valve paths and prove each transition before advancing the sequence.

Evidence beyond course completion
Assignments can grade normal operation, unsafe demands, boundary conditions and recovery behavior against the same machine model.
- Sequence an unloaded compressor start from live feedback
- Recognise and respond to high discharge pressure before reset
- Demonstrate isolation and blowdown after an ESD demand
- Apply first-out, burner and pipeline-control patterns in graded labs
Scope, stated plainly
This is controls training software, not a safety-certified SIS, compressor performance tool or digital twin of a production facility. It cannot establish SIL, validate cause-and-effect, replace API/IEC engineering, or control field equipment.
