Course 7202      CEUs: 2.1

Overview

This 3-day course is designed for process and control engineers who are applying DeltaV Predict and Predict Pro.  It provides practical examples of how to determine the benefits of MPC application and how this control may be used to meet specific application requirements. Students will gain hands on experience through lab exercises based on realistic dynamic process simulations.

Prerequisites

7201 DeltaV Advanced Control
