Abstract

This research focuses on the analysis of the flow rate control system of fresh water in the pulp and paper industry, specifically in the cooker process at PT. XYZ. The control system used involves feedback to ensure the consistency and quality of the final product. By utilizing a Distributed Control System (DCS), this study examines the closed-loop diagram, process flow, DCS programming, and the actual performance data of the fresh water flow rate control system. The results indicate that the control system effectively regulates the fresh water flow rate to achieve the desired viscosity in starch production. Although there is a slight deviation between the set point and the measured instrument reading, the resulting error remains within acceptable tolerances.

Abstract

In order not to be disconnected from the electrical energy source, a backup system is needed. One way is to use a charging system when PLN is on and storing it in an accumulator for use during a PLN blackout. However, when charging, the electricity stored in the accumulator is in the form of DC current, so it needs to be converted back to AC current, namely with an AC to DC inverter. The inverter system uses switching which creates harmonics. Disturbances in the electric power system caused by wave and current distortion are called harmonics. Harmonics can cause sinusoidal waves to become less sinusoidal, caused by high frequency waves which are multiples of the fundamental frequency. To reduce harmonics, install an EMI filter at the inverter output. This research measures the effectiveness of installing a filter using Labview 2014 software on a 500 W custom low inverter with inductive, resistive and capacitive loads using Labview software and the NI myDAQ instrument. The results of the research are that the standby/no-load power required for the common mode EMI filter is 0.03 A’s at a voltage of 220VAC. In no-load conditions there was an increase in THDv of 0.03 from before the filter 1.7% to 1.739%, and a decrease in THDi of 0.12 from 1.311% to 1.119%. In conditions with inductive loads, there was a decrease in THDv by 0.104 from before the filter 1.202% to 1.098%, and THDi by 0.099% from before the filter 1.325% to 1.226%. In conditions with resistive loads, there was a decrease in THDv of 0.12 from before the filter of 1.218% to 1.09%, and THDi of 0.003 from before the filter of 1.144% to 1.114%. In conditions with capacitive load, there was an increase in THDv of 0.185 from before the filter of 1.219% to 1.404% and a decrease in THDi of 0.035 from before the filter of 1.44% to 1.109%.

Abstract

The teaching material is an important element in the learning process because it has a variety of crucial functions. First, the material allows the student to learn independently without the presence of a teacher or a friend. Second, the student can study anywhere and at any time according to their wishes. Third, it helps the student become an independent learner. Lastly, it serves as a guide that guides the student's learning activity. As a result of interviews with instructors in the field of Electrical Equipment, it is known that the material module of the Solar Power Plant does not support learning. Therefore, the aim of this study is to create a learning module about electrical devices that can be used as a learning support in the classroom for students in class XI of Electric Power Plant Engineering at SMK. Using the 4D model (Define, Design, Develop, and Disseminate), this is a development module that has four chapters: solar energy, general PLTS descriptions, components, and PLTS operations. The results of the study showed that the generator learning module created was highly valid, with an average of 93.40% of all tests. Validity of expert 1 reached 95.07% with highly valid category, validity of specialist 2 reached 95.83%, and validity test of small and large groups reached 89.22% with very valid categories, respectively.

Abstract

The failure of electrical components in the industry can cause production process disruptions, and even accidents. Infrared thermography is an effective method for predictive maintenance, aiming to identify potential component damage before failure occurs. This research aims to analyze the condition of a 575 kVAr capacitor bank installation using infrared thermography. The standard used is the Standard for Infrared Inspection of Electrical Systems and Rotating Equipment. The results of the study indicate that the majority of the 575 kVAr capacitor bank installation conditions fall under priority scale 3, with a maximum temperature of 44.5°C and a delta T of 18.3, which means corrective actions need to be taken with scheduling permission. Corrective actions that can be taken include inspecting cable installations, tightening cable lugs, and tightening terminal connections on contactors and MCCBs. One part that has a priority scale 4 is the MCCB and contactor of the capacitor bank on the lower front section, with a hot point value of 35.1°C and a delta T of 8.9.

Abstract

The innovation of submerged or submerged robots is currently prominent enough to be noticed by the general public, the country and even the world. Previously there were still many submerged exercises that were controlled using cable media. In this research, the diving robot controller uses wireless conductive media. Because currently robots can move submerged, it is hoped that they can help human activities. The Submerged Pack robot is an Arduino-based ROV (Remotely Operated Vehicle) which is smaller than usual. This robot uses 4 engines to move and is equipped with a camera and lighting frame to screen submerged conditions. Arduino as the main microcontroller controls the Flysky FS-i6 via a link so that the robot can be controlled from above the water surface. The essence of this examination is to be able to design submerged robots that can replace traditional submerged exercises. The main thing in the scaled-down ROV plan is its control frame and watertight frame. The framework for the observation and lighting system uses lights and is equipped with a camera. The expected results from this diving robot are normal, that the robot can move according to the four commands which can be applied as a prototype for observing diving.
