# Industrial Specification: Automated Control System

## 1. Technical Definition
A computerized system that monitors and regulates process variables in continuous flow chemical synthesis to maintain optimal reaction conditions.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0.1-100 bar, -40°C to 85°C, 0-100% relative humidity**. Failure boundary: **Pressure &gt; 110 bar causes diaphragm rupture, temperature &gt; 90°C triggers thermal shutdown, humidity &gt; 95% initiates condensation-induced short circuit**, Mechanism: **Diaphragm material (316L stainless steel) yields at 110 bar due to Hooke's Law elastic limit, semiconductor junction breakdown at 90°C from Arrhenius equation acceleration, water film formation at dew point creates conductive paths per Kohlrausch's Law**.

### 2.1 Analytical Physics Model
Governed by the **Hansen Solubility Distance (HSP)**:

> **Primary Equation**: $R_a = \sqrt{4\Delta\delta_d^2 + \Delta\delta_p^2 + \Delta\delta_h^2}$  
> **Engineering Impact**: Predicts seal/gasket swelling when exposed to CIP chemicals.
