APPENDIX 3. INPUT SELECTOR (IS) BLOCK
A3.6 Application Example
The following describes the temperature control system of a fixed bed-type reactor. In this case, there are instances
where the point showing the maximum temperature changes due to catalytic deterioration, raw material flow, etc.
Therefore, a large number of measurement points are provided, and the maximum value obtained among these
measurement points is input to the controller to control reactor temperature.
