Or Afternoon Batch : 1.30 PM to 5.00 PM

Curriculum & Qualification Authorities:

Learners can have choices to obtain qualification from any of the following:

International Qualifications:

1. TÜV Rheinland (Germany)

Diploma in Process Control

Instrumentation

2. City & Guilds Institute of London, UK.

Advanced Diploma in Instrumentation

Scope of Job of this course:

In very huge and gigantic Process Industries to small plants also the machineries are

working with fully Computerized and Automated Systems . All the computerized and

automated systems are working for the Measurement & Control of Process Elements

like Temperature, Pressure, Flow and level etc… in Production Process . These

Measurement and Control are achieved by Process Instruments like Transmitter,

Transistor, Transducer, Control Valves, Solenoid Valves, and Micro Processors etc...

For Construction and Erection of new plants and Maintenance , Calibration , Onsite

Maintenance/Troubleshoot of existing plants plenty of vacancies

of Instrumentation Professional arising very year, but there are no

sufficient professionals are available to fulfill the vacancies for the

present and immediate future as per the current scenario.

Type of Industries:

Petrochemicals, Pharmaceuticals, Fertilizers, Plast ics, Pulp and Paper, Oil and

Gas, Refineries, Aerospace, Alcoholic Beverages, Al ternative Energy Production,

Automobiles, Aviation, Beverage, Cement,

Chemical & Related Manufacturing, Dairy, Electric

power, Electronics Manufacturing, Energy, Food

Industry, Natural Gas Pipelines, Renewable

Energy, Semiconductor, Steel & Iron, Textiles

etc…..

Job Opportunities of this course:

SIIT’s Student’s passing out with International Certificates can enter into career as

Instrument Technician and can grow up into the hierarchy of Foreman , Supervisor ,

Site Engineer and Plant Engineer and to highest and reputed

position of Plant Manager in International Companies all over

the world as well as National Companies . There remuneration

and other perks may be in International Standard according to

their individual skills.

Instrumentation Lab

Instrumentation Lab in SIIT is capable of providing Practical Training in Pressure

Gauge to modern Smart Transmitters . The Lab of SIIT is well equipped and capable

of imparting training for the Operation and Maintenance of various Measurements &

Control Systems of the Industrial Parameters like Pressure, Temperature, Flow, Level,

Vibration, Conductivity etc. and the Final Control Systems like Control Valve, the

Control Systems of DCS/PLC/SCADA etc.

Instruments

The familiarity with the imported Instruments imparts the work experience equivalent to

long term apprenticeship in modern industries, during the training period itself.

Therefore the students become capable of working as experienced persons

immediately on completion of the course.

Difference from others…

Other institutes including Engineering Colleges use

just mere Training Kits fitted in demonstration

boards manufactured by companies in their

practical labs and they have no live relation with

real instruments using in Industrial Plants, but in

SIIT we use only Real Plant Process Instruments

for Practical Section to students, they are obtained from Real Industrial Working

Plants , so they are real instruments than mere training kits.

1. This uniqueness makes SIIT’s students also unique in Practical Knowledge.

2. This Uniqueness highly helps SIIT’s students to score marks job interviews in both

Theoretical Viva and Practical Test, because they are familiar with Real Process Control

Instruments.

3. This Uniqueness helps SIIT’s students to easily be simulate with working atmosphere

immediately on entering into job in any type of sophisticated plant without anybody’s

help, because they are already familiar with the Real Industrial Instruments in SIIT Lab

and Operational Working Mini Plants of SIIT.

Two Operational Working Mini Plants

The major attraction of SIIT Lab is the PLC

Controlled Working Mini Plants [2 Mini Plants]

with Pressure , Temperature , Flow and Level

Control Loops in operation. They are equipped

with five Control Valves , seven Electronic

Transmitters , Solenoid Valves and other

Process Control /Measuring Instruments .

Students use the facility for On-Site Calibration

of Transmitters & Control Valves, Loop

Checking, PID Control Tuning, Instrument

Tubing Practice and Cable Glanding &

Termination Practice and to have a Plant
