10. Case Study (9 hours)

Examples chosen from local industrial situations with particular aftention paid
to the basic measurement requirements, accuracy, and specific hardware
employed environmental conditions under which the instruments must
operate, signal processing and transmission, output devices:
a) lnstr.umentation for a power station including all electrical and non-
electrical parameters.
b) lnstrumentation for a wire and cable manufacturing and bottling plant.
c) lnstrumentation for a beverage manufacturing and bottling plant.
d) lnstrumentation for a complete textile plant; for example, a cotton mill
from raw cofton through to finished dyed fabric.
e) lnstrumentation for a process; for example, an oil seed processing plant
from raw seeds through to packaged edible oil product.
0 lnstruments required for a biomedical application such as a medical
clinic or hospital.
g) Other industries can be selected with the consent of the Subject
teacher.

Practical:
The laboratory exercises deal interfacing techniques using microprocessor or
microcontrollers. There will be about six lab sessions which should cover at least
following:
1. Simple and Handshake data transfer using PPI.
2. Basic l/O device interfacing like keyboard, seven segments, motors etc
3. Analog to Digital interfacing
4. Digital to Analog interfacing
5. Design exercise (small group project)

Study in detailthe instrumentation requirements of a particular proposed orexisting

industrial plant and design ari instrumentation and data collection system for that
particular industrial plant. The final report should present the instrumentation
requirements in terms of engineering specifications, the hardware solution
suggested, a listing of the particular devices chosen to satisfy the requirements,
appropriate system flow diagrams, wiring diagrams, etc. to show how the system
would be connected and operated.
