Guided training

Learn separator control by running one

Seven short lessons. Each one isolates a single idea, gives you a separator that shows it, and tells you what to look for. Nothing you do here can break anything.

  1. Foundationabout 6 min

    What a three-phase separator does

    A cold start: fill the vessel, watch the loops take over, learn what they protect.

  2. Foundationabout 10 min

    Proportional action, and the offset it leaves

    The feed steps up. Proportional-only control answers, but never all the way.

  3. Practiceabout 12 min

    Integral action, and how it gets stuck

    Removing the offset without paying for it in overshoot.

  4. Practiceabout 12 min

    A noisy interface, and what derivative does to it

    Derivative predicts. On a noisy measurement it mostly invents.

  5. Advancedabout 15 min

    Slugs, and the limits of feedback

    A reactive controller always arrives late. Learn what to do about that.

    Start lesson
  6. Advancedabout 15 min

    The third loop: pressure, and how loops interact

    Pressure moves in seconds. Level moves in minutes. They share a vessel.

    Start lesson
  7. Advancedabout 18 min

    Tuning from scratch, systematically

    No presets. A repeatable procedure, and a trade-off to defend.
