Practical Pump Technology
Masterclass: Selection, Applications, Operation, Troubleshooting, &
Maintenance
Introduction:
This comprehensive
course is designed to provide an in-depth perspective of pump technology in
terms of selection, operation, maintenance and repair. Topics covered include
pump types and terminology, centrifugal and positive-displacement pumps, packing,
mechanical seals and sealing systems, bearings, couplings and other vital
components. In addition, various pump types will be examined as to how they
perform in their respective operating systems and advantages and disadvantages
of various pump types will be discussed. Pump operation, troubleshooting and
maintenance will be dealt with in depth.
This course
provides a comprehensive understanding of the various types of reciprocating,
rotary, and centrifugal pumps. This includes piston pumps, plunger pumps,
rotary pumps, screw pumps, two- and three-lobe pumps, cam pumps, vane pumps,
bellows-type metering pumps, diaphragm pumps, canned motor pumps, and
centrifugal pumps. The characteristics, selection criteria, sizing
calculations, sealing arrangements, common problems, repair techniques, as well
as the preventive and predictive maintenance of these pumps are covered in
detail.
This course will
provide the candidates with a complete and up-to-date knowledge of pumps and
their systems. Further, participants will learn more about selection, operation
and maintenance strategies which will assist in increasing pump availability
and reliability. Upon the completion of this program, the candidates will be
able to troubleshoot all types of pump problems. The course will introduce the
candidates to the different types of pumps and their associated terminology. Centrifugal
and positive displacement pumps, packing, mechanical seals and sealing systems,
bearings and couplings will all be discussed. The application of the different
types of pumps will be discussed along with their suitability for different
operational duties. Pump operation, troubleshooting and maintenance will be
dealt with in depth.
