Selector logic is a simple and effective tool to switch between different controlled variables associated with change in active constraints. Selector blocks have been extensively used in the process control industry for decades, but their design has been based on engineering intuition and experience. Currently, there is a lack of systematic procedure to design selectors for active constraint switching. In this paper, we address this gap and provide a systematic procedure, which can be applied without the need for detailed process models. Illustrative examples are used to demonstrate the proposed framework.
