Contek Systems - Process Control Consultancy

Contek Systems - Process Control Consultancy

"Control engineering consultant for the oil and gas industry. Process control, de-bottlenecking, compressors, slugging and control system PID tuning." - John Greene

Observing Process Data by Contek Systems Ltd

"The root-cause of many control problems can be rather more subtle than poor PID tuning: see this tutorial for a selection of some control-related problems solved by Contek over the last few years."

U-Tune Tuning Calculator

Calculate proportional-integral tuning parameters for process controllers using the results of an open-loop step response.

The calculator supports the common controller algorithms and parameter types and provides two sets of parameters, one for fast and the other for slow responding loops.
