Course Introduction

Rotating equipment’s are the most major capital cost items, a key reliability problem and consume huge amounts of energy. For most companies the costs of owning and running rotating equipment’s are much higher than they should be.

A shortage in general knowledge of how to apply, specify, install and operate those equipment’s is the major reasons for these high costs. This training course is designed to address this problem.

Our Total rotating equipment’s course is an in depth look at common equipment’s applications, including selection, operation, troubleshooting, and maintenance. Individuals in industry will find this to be a valuable course for learning the importance of proper equipment operation and typical behavior and troubleshooting in application.
