IE0277-3D : Configuration, Installation, Maintenance of STI Actuator & Positioner

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 with a detailed and up-to-date overview of the configuration, installation and maintenance of STI actuator and positioner. It covers the principles of valve actuation, actuator parts, actuator response and operation of piston actuators; the advantages and limitations of actuators; the electric actuator operation and common actuator and positioner types; the positioner function, principles of positioner operation and positioner parts; how positioners can improve valve response time; and how positioners can change valve flow characteristics and actuator response. During this interactive course, participants will learn the selection factors that indicate the appropriate actuator or positioner for system applications; the failsafe requirement and the appropriate actuator response; the external failsafe
devices used with piston actuators; the actuator-sizing criteria, sizing pneumatic actuators, sizing electromechanical and electrohydraulic actuators; the configuration, installation and maintenance of actuator and positioner; and troubleshooting and overhauling actuators
and positioners.
