Pumps & Pump Systems Training Seminar
Purpose of Seminar:
Better than learning how to replace or repair a pump, wouldn't it be more efficient and a greater cost savings if you just knew how to prevent a pump from failing in the first place? That's exactly what this course is designed to do. From the pump and pump system, to the people who operate, maintain and design the pump system, this seminar will teach students how to identify the real problems causing pump failure, and how to avoid repeating those problems in the future. And because we know time is money, this seminar is designed to have immediate impact so that you can start saving maintenance dollars on costly repairs and downtime today! We approach our students as if they were our own employees. We give them real world, practical knowledge. And students attending this course are expected to go back to their workplace and immediately apply what they have learned. Now that's "Real World" training!
Course Objectives:
Upon completion of this course, students will receive a
training certificate and 1.4 American Trainco Continuing
Education Units indicating that the student has learned to:
Understand basic pump principles
Properly select the right pump & motor for the job
Install, start-up and commission a pump
Correctly align a pump and motor
Properly maintain pumps and pump systems
Properly operate a pump system
Read and understand what pump gauges are saying
Read and apply pump curve charts
Identify and distinguish a "pump" problem from a "system" problem
Identify, correct and avoid cavitation problems
Prevent mechanical seal failure
Conduct failure analysis so as not to repeat errors
Who should take this course:
Attendees to this seminar come from a wide variety of industries, skill levels, company sizes and job titles, so if you're not sure you will fit in or will benefit from the class, don't worry - you will - as long as your job involves pumps. From the apprentice mechanic to the seasoned engineer, this course successfully addresses the questions and concerns of all those who need centrifugal pump knowledge, including:
Maintenance Technicians
Mechanics
Machine Operators
Building Owners
Plant Engineers
Facility Managers
Any Person involved in Cross-training, or
Multi-craft Skills programs.
