Course Description

This practical and highly-interactive course includes various practical sessions and exercises. Theory learnt will be applied using our state-of-the-art simulators. This course is designed to provide participants a detailed and up-to-date overview of centrifugal pump selection, construction, operation, maintenance, repair and troubleshooting. It covers the pump types and terminology; the operating characteristics of centrifugal pumps; the centrifugal pump specification and selection; the pump and system hydraulics; the pump construction; the packing and mechanical seals; and the mechanical seal systems. At the completion of the course, participants will be able to apply proper mechanical seal failure analysis and troubleshooting; mechanical seal maintenance and repair; bearing care and maintenance; couplings and alignment; and centrifugal pump maintenance and repair. The course will also cover the pump reliability including the systematic approach, predictive/preventive, addressing pump vibrations, building availability data, analyzing pump costs and initiating pump reliability improvement program.
