A pick and Place machine is being used to transfer a box.
The arm is extended (out) by energizing a solenoid valve; when the valve is de-energizes, the arm retracts (in). In the same way, a second valve closes the grip (when energized) or opens
the grip (when de-energized).
Here's a diagram of this "machine":

cylinder continues to extend until the ramp depresses
the activation mechanism on Valve C.
When Valve C is shifted, air is directed to the
Retraction pilot of the four-way directional control
valve. The pilot shifts the valve to direct air to the rod
end of the cylinder. The cylinder begins to retract. The
ramp moves off Valve C, which allows the Retraction
pilot line to vent. The cylinder continues to retract until
the ramp depresses the activation mechanism on Valve B
This allows system air pressure to again activate the
Extension pilot, beginning another sequence. The cylin-

Conventional float actuated device is used as a level measurement sensor, which consist of pulley and a pointer which move over a graduated scale. Let say you are asked to develop a controller-based float actuated system having a sensor for level measurement or may be more than one sensor is required for accurate level measurement, which sensor will you use and why? Draw the whole schematic showing the position of the sensor or sensors. Will pulley be part of your new digital system, if yes justify your answer, if no, then how you will develop a system without using pulley.

In an industry, the water in a boiler tank needs to be kept at constant pressure, water to the tank
comes at constant flow rate and steam is coming from a valve to maintain the pressure. A pressure
gauge is used to measure the water pressure in the tank.

Provide the block diagram representation using a PID controller for the above mentioned
condition (Control the pressure using the proportional valve.).
b.

The level of liquid in a reboiler on a distillation column is controlled by using feedback control to throttle a
valve on the liquid product (see below P&ID). However, the pressure of vapour above the liquid in the reboiler
also affects the flow rate of liquid product, as an increase in pressure above the liquid will push the liquid
through the product line faster.
a) Draw a cascade arrangement where the vapour pressure is measured as the secondary variable.
b) Draw a cascade arrangement where the actual flowrate in the liquid product stream is measured as the
secondary variable.
