Course Introduction
Practical pump and valve technology is essential for engineers and technicians involved in the operation, maintenance, and optimization of fluid handling systems. Pumps and valves are critical components in a wide range of industries such as water treatment, oil and gas, chemical processing, and HVAC. Proper understanding of their selection, installation, operation, and maintenance is vital for improving system efficiency, ensuring safety, and minimizing operational costs. A deep understanding of pump and valve performance, including their interactions in a system, can help reduce energy consumption, improve reliability, and extend the lifespan of equipment. This training provides participants with the essential skills and knowledge needed to work effectively with pumps and valves in industrial applications.
This program will cover the fundamentals of pump and valve selection, installation, operation, and maintenance. It will explore different types of pumps and valves, their working principles, and performance characteristics. Participants will learn about common pump and valve issues, troubleshooting techniques, and how to optimize their performance.
