Distributed Control System DCS Training & Certification Course Course Overview

A distributed control system is developed to manage the complicated and geographically distributed control systems throughout the plant. Such systems are ideal to be used in a wide range of industries, including refineries, power plants, water treatment plants, automobile industries, oil industries, and gas plants. DCS Training is equally ideal for working professionals and corporate companies.

Multisoft Systems is a prominent name in the field of corporate training. It provides industry-based training for more than 800 different technologies, including distributed control systems. A distributed control system comes with many control loops; it is a computerized control system. Such systems are designed in contrast with the systems that use centralized controllers – either discrete controllers located within a central computer or at a central control room. A DCS is ideal to be used in a wide range of industries, including refineries, power plants, water treatment plants, automobile industries, oil industries, and gas plants.

Distributed Control System (DCS ) Course Objectives:
  • You will be able to manage the complicated and geographically distributed control systems in refineries, power plants, pharmaceutical industries, water treatment plants, automobile industries, oil industries, and gas plants after attending this course.
