Training Course
Syllabus:
A comprehensive course designed to benefit: Mechanics, Operators, Consulting and Design Engineers, and Multi-Craft Maintenance Technicians.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.
Course Competencies & Learning Objectives:
· 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
