Abstract

METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR COOLING DOWN A CRYOGENIC HEAT EXCHANGER, EMPLOYING A PROGRAMMABLE CONTROLLER THAT RECEIVES INPUT SIGNALS REPRESENTING SENSOR SIGNALS OF ONE OR MORE CONTROLLED VARIABLES IN A SELECTED PROCESS, AND PRODUCES CONTROL SIGNALS TO CONTROL ONE OR MORE MANIPULATED VARIABLES IN THE SELECTED PROCESS. THE PROGRAMMABLE CONTROLLER CAN EXECUTE A COMPUTER PROGRAM THAT COMPRISES A NETWORK OF AT LEAST THREE MODULES. THE MODULES IN THE NETWORK ARE INTERCONNECTED SUCH A TRIGGER SIGNAL RECEIVED BY A SECOND AND A THIRD MODULE OF THE AT LEAST THREE MODULES CORRESPONDS TO A COMMUNICATION SIGNAL THAT IS GENERATED WHEN THE FIRST MODULE OF THE AT LEAST THREE MODULES HAS REACHED A PRE-DETERMINED TARGET FOR THAT MODULE.
