Three-Phase Separator Control System
This P&ID shows a three-phase horizontal separator with dedicated control loops for level and pressure regulation. It displays a water outlet with a level control loop (LT/LC/LV), an oil outlet with its own level control loop (LT/LC/LV) separated by an internal weir, and a vapor outlet regulated via a pressure control loop (PT/PC/PV).
