There a some conventional distillation column control strategies. Which of the strategies below is best described as a one that indirectly controls the heat input to the column?
Each compressor have it's own pressure to flow profile at a defined speed. Which of the compressors below would have an inconsistent flow and predictable pressure?
One of the more common applications for ratio control is fuel to air control schemes. Which of the control schemes below would use a a signal arriving at both the air and fuel controllers from the firing demand controller, while allowing for excess air for combustion??
Starting a boiler is an extremely complicated procedure. Which of the start-up steps would include the pressure for the igniter system being acceptable limits?
Several control strategies involve the control of one or more FCEs. Which of the control stategies below does each FCE use the full control signal?
In a reciprocating compressor, the piston rod is put under extreme forces and requires monitoring. Which of the situations below would a pneumatic eutectic sensor be used?
There are a variety of complications that can arise while using a reciprocating compressor. Which one of the events would be mitigated by a tight control of the water jacket and lube oil?
Even a peak operating boiler must be protected from various issues that effect it's performance. Which of the terms below would be best be prevented by a chemical treatment coinciding with regular blowdowns, keeping the TDS near 0.03 ppm?
If an unusual condition appears, compressor control systems have instruments that will shut down the compressor safely. Which of the shutdown classes below is best described as monitoring only those conditions that apply to start-up?
SAMA has various symbols for the elements or functions of a boiler. Which of the answers below correctly identifies "A"?
Which of the terms can be best described as a condition of a system or process that does not change over a period of time?
Which of the answers below is best described as the quantitative measurement of best controlled and manipulated variable pairings to limit loop interaction?
There a some conventional distillation column control strategies. Which of the strategies below is best described as a one that does not control output flows from the column?
Electric switches and transmitters make up the bulk of the sensors in a safety system. Which type of sensor architecture below is best described as a shutdown that can be initiated by a single component?
Which of the answers below best describes a disadvantage that does not belong to a manually controlled system?
The indirect ratio scheme calculates it's ratio using a flow relay. Which of the methods below does the flow relay use?
Which of the answers below is best represented by the number "5" on a typical H1 segment?
Which of the answers below best represents the PB if the controller gain is 1.75?
There are multiple parts to a large industrial water tube boiler. Which of the answers below is best described as a tube not directly heated, that allows thermal movement of water to the mud drum?
There are multiple parts to a large industrial water tube boiler. Which of the answers below is best described as an area where the temperature of the superheated steam is controlled with boiler feedwater?
Because steam demands can vary, there are several control methods that work in concert to ensure efficient boiler operation. Which of those strategies would be to control the volume of boiler feedwater sprayed in to the steam?
Electric switches and transmitters make up the bulk of the sensors in a safety system. Which type of sensor architecture below is best described as a shutdown that can be initiated by two components together?
In the reciprocating compressor system, there are numerous specialized components. Which of the components below would be best described as one that improves the efficiency and range of operation?
