SAT communication phrases

SAT 高频沟通用语

High-frequency phrases for working a SAT with foreign engineers - grouped by what you are trying to do. Keep them short; on a noisy plant floor, clarity beats grammar.

Clarifying process parameters确认过程参数

English中文
Can you confirm the setpoint for the holding tube temperature?请确认保持管温度的设定值。
What is the validated holding time at maximum flow?最大流量下经验证的保持时间是多少?
Is the temperature compensation enabled on the conductivity transmitter?电导率变送器的温度补偿是否已启用?
What concentration are we targeting for the caustic wash?碱洗的目标浓度是多少?

Confirming valve feedback signals确认阀门反馈

English中文
The valve has moved, but I am not seeing the feedback signal in the PLC.阀门已动作,但 PLC 没有收到反馈信号。
Can you check the feedback polarity - open and closed look reversed.请检查反馈极性,开和关似乎反了。
What is the feedback timeout for this valve cluster?这个阀组的反馈超时设定是多少?
