Course Number: 1759
Length: 2.5 days
Cost: $2,320 (Canadian)
Schedule
Synopsis
This two and a half day course uses classroom lectures and hands-on workshops to teach the student to interpret and analyze diagnostics data obtained using FIELDVUE Digital Valve Controllers and AMS ValveLink software. Students will perform diagnostic tests on a variety of valve/actuator combinations and use the data to determine bench set, dynamic error band, seat load, spring rate and other pertinent parameters. Students will also perform comparison tests on valves/actuators containing assembly or operating flaws and use the data for troubleshooting purposes. This course is designed to teach techniques necessary to collect and interpret valve diagnostic tests performed using AMS ValveLink software.
Who Should Attend
This course is for technicians, engineers and others responsible for installing and calibrating control valve related instruments.
