Three-Phase Separator Learning System, LabVolt Series
Table of Contents
General Description
The Three‐Phase Separator learning System demonstrates the fundamentals of oil separation when processing
crude oil. Crude oil is a mixture of oil, water, and hydrocarbon gas, that must be separated before oil can be sent
to a refinery. Accurate measurement of the gas and oil ratio is also essential, as it directly impacts production.
The Three-Phase Separator demonstrates the fundamentals of oil separation, such as the effect of gravity, the
effect of layer thickness, viscosity, retention time, density difference, vessel pressure, and oil/water/gas ratio. It
features the similar components and instrumentation that is used in the oil and gas industry. It also replicates
similar operational behavior to the ones that are used in the industry.
The Three-Phase Separator offers two different configurations such as Basic Pneumatic Control for training
operation personal and a second one with Smart Instrumentation for training instrumentation technician as well
as engineers. It is also possible to start with a Basic Pneumatic Control Separator (3535-0) and then add the
Learning System Instrumentation Add-on to make it a Complete Solution.
The Three-Phase Separator operates as an industrial production separator with basic level pneumatic
controllers, or with instrumentation for crude oil characterization. It is part of the LabVolt Series 353X product
family, offering high quality, modular industrial instrumentation and process control training solutions,
supported by unique pedagogical content.
The Three-Phase Separator is part of our oil and gas training program that naturally fit the requirements to
quality technicians and engineers.

The Basic Three-Phase separator includes the components used in a real production separator.
It features a Three-phase separator Vessel, two centrifugal pumps, two reservoirs (water and oil), a Pumps
Control Unit with Allen-Braddley variable frequency drives, a Back Pressure Regulator and a Safety Pressure
Relief Valve.

Three-Phase Separator Learning System, LabVolt Series
The control on the oil level and oil-water interface level is performed using pneumatic controllers from well-
known brands such as Norriseal-Wellmark. The Pneumatic level controllers send pneumatic signals to the two
pneumatic control valves.

Three-Phase Separator Learning System, LabVolt Series
Large clear acrylic vessel in order to see the internal components in operation for training purpose.
Pressurized operation with similar safety devices that are used in real industrial separator such as pressure
safety valve. Vessel internal components such as diverter plate, perforated baffle plate, coalescing plate, weir
plate, demister pad. Vortex breakers are also installed to the oil and water outlets to prevent formation of
vortex.
All the internal components inside the Vessel are made of stainless steel to ensure long lasting.
The Vessel includes a rupture disk that is a pressure relief device that protects the system against
overpressurization. The rupture disc burst pressure is 70 kPa (10 psig).

Rotameters
The three rotameters are variable area
flow meters allow students to adjust
the crude oil mixture ratios by
controlling the flow rates of Oil, Water
and Gas.
The oil and water rotameters have a
range of 0-14 lpm (0-3.5 usgpm) and
the Gas rotameter scale is from 0-110
slpm (0-4.0 scfm).
Inline Mixer
The inline mixer creates an homogeneous three-phase fluid mixture and it can also be bypassed using the hand
valve. It is made of clear plastic to permit the students to see the internal construction and the effect on the
inlet fluid.
Pressure Gauge
The Pressure Gauge provides a direct
reading of the pressure and is filled
with glycerine in order to have a stable
pressure reading. The operating range
is 0-100 kPa (0-15 psig).

Monitoring Unit
The Monitoring Unit uses a L24
CompactLogix PLC and a Panel View
Plus7 touch panel with the PlantPAx
Distributed Control System (DCS). The
10-inch operator panel permit to the
student to monitor the flow rates, the
fluid levels and the pressure in the
separator vessel.
It is also possible to display an Piping
and Instrumentation Diagram of the
process.
Students learn also about Alarm Management through the standard operation of the system and during
troubleshooting experiments that can be performed after inserting one or many faults on the components.
Measuring units can also be display in metric system or imperial.
Each instrument can quickly and easily to the Monitoring Unit.

Equipment Description
Orifice Plate (Air- High Flow)
8096149 (46914-A0)
The Orifice Plate (Air - High Fow) is a flow measurement device designed for air applications. It uses the Venturi
effect to produce a pressure drop from which the flow rate can be inferred. This primary element consists of an
orifice precisely machined in a brass tube. The Orifice Plate requires the use of a differential-pressure
transmitter to directly convert the pressure drop into a usable flow rate value.
