Industrial Flow Measurement for Engineers & Technicians

 

Introduction:

Industrial flow measurement is suitable for the engineer, electrician, technician, craftsperson, operator and others who require practical, specialist knowledge for selecting and implementing flow measurement systems. This course is ideal for cross-skill training. The course focuses on typical real-world applications. Close attention is given to special installation considerations and application limitations when selecting and installing different flow instruments.

Course Objectives:

 

By the end of this course delegates will be able to:

  • Understand and compare important existing technologies in flow measurement
  • Confidently explain the critical fundamentals of flow measurement
  • Specify and design flow measurement systems
  • Troubleshoot and install flow instrumentation systems
  • Avoid common errors in the installation of flow meters
  • Describe and specify emerging technologies

Who Should Attend?

Automation engineers, building service designers, control technicians, data systems planners and managers, electrical and instrumentation technicians, electrical engineers, power system protection and control engineers, process engineers,  electricians, energy management consultants, instrumentation and control engineers, maintenance engineers, anyone involved in the design, implementation and upgrading of industrial control systems
