Course Description

This practical and highly-interactive course includes real-life case studies and exercises where participants will be engaged in a series of interactive small groups and class workshops. This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of Rotating Equipment Fundamentals. It covers the types and applications of rotating equipment and the fundamental concepts of mechanics like torque, RPM, power and energy; the types, functions and maintenance of bearings and lubrication; the design and alignment of shafts and couplings for efficient operation; the importance of seals and gaskets in maintaining system integrity; the centrifugal and positive displacement pumps; the working principle and components of centrifugal pumps; and the types and applications of positive displacement pumps. Further, the course will also discuss the pump performance and curves; the types and operational principles of compressors in water treatment; the routine checks, troubleshooting and maintenance of pumps and compressors; the energy efficiency in pump and compressor operation; the techniques and tools of vibration analysis; the methods and importance of balancing a rotating equipment; and the lubrication techniques including grease and oil analysis.
