Machine Theory: Pumps, Fans & Compressors

This course covers the machine theory as well as specific vibration analysis for proper maintenance, trending and analysis of centrifugal pumps, fans, and compressors. The course starts with the theory of operation and design of pumps, fans, and compressors. It then moves on to vibration analysis techniques by establishing the appropriate hardward & software selection and setup for trending and diagnosis. The course then covers FFT Spectrum and Phase Analyisis for the purpose of identifying specific pump, fan and compressor faults.

Prerequisites
Secondary Education Diploma is recommended.

Course Length
8 hours.

Certification Exam
25 Questions, 1 hour time limit, Open Book, passing score is 70% correct.

Course Objectives
