This Energy training course will provide participants with an introduction to various types of pumps, compressors, turbines, and related components such as bearings, seals, filters, and separators. The primary focus will be on the start-up and operation of these machines, along with effective maintenance, diagnostics, and troubleshooting methods.
In addition, the Rotating Equipment training course will explore how to ensure the efficient and smooth operation of pumps, compressors, and turbines, covering their ability to regulate key operational parameters. Emphasis will be placed on understanding the underlying physical principles and applying clear technical reasoning.
The Rotating Equipment training course will cover:
- Principles of starting up and operating pumps, compressors, and turbines
- Best practices for maintenance and repair
- Techniques for measuring and controlling the performance of these machines
- Inspection and diagnosis to identify the root causes of issues
- Troubleshooting methods for resolving operational problems with pumps, compressors, and turbines
By the end of this Rotating Equipment training course, participants will be able to:
- Identify various types of pumps, compressors, and turbines.
- Operate pumps, compressors, and turbines at or near their optimal efficiency.
- Monitor the reliability, availability, and cost-effectiveness of pumps, compressors, and turbines.
- Choose the most effective operation and maintenance strategies.
- Diagnose and resolve issues related to pumps, compressors, and turbines.
This Energy training course will utilise a variety of proven adult learning techniques to ensure maximum understanding, comprehension and retention of the information presented. This includes lecture with active delegate participation including discussions and workshops. Real life problems and case studies will be worked out and discussed.
Through an active participation in the group work and class discussions, the delegates will be a lot of opportunity to increase their experience and knowledge of techniques available for equipment troubleshooting.
