To address practical challenges in exothermic reactor control systems, this paper thoroughly investigates the structure of the SMPT-1000 experimental platform and PCS7 process control technology. The hardware design, software design, communication module, PLC programming languages, WinCC monitoring module on the upper computer, and PCS7 software are analyzed in detail. A PID controller is designed to stabilize the system’s output variables within the desired range through proper tuning of PID parameters. This design not only achieves effective system control but also integrates PCS7 monitoring technology, enabling operator station visualization and remote monitoring via WinCC, the SMPT-1000 provides a safe and economical pre-verification platform for exothermic reaction control through high-precision simulation, while the PCS7 ensures the stable operation of the actual system with industrial-grade reliability and advanced control functions, thereby creating an intuitive human-machine interface. Finally, simulations conducted with the SMPTLab software of the SMPT-1000 platform demonstrate that the proposed reactor control system operates reliably and achieves stable performance, meeting the expected design objectives.
