COURSE OVERVIEW

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 a good working knowledge on air compressors. It covers the selection of suitable type of compressors for applications; suitable type of compressors for applications; function and classification of compressor; and some of the current common reasons of compressor component failure. Participants will be able to perform the better method for maintenance by recognizing the theoretical principles of compressor work; determine rotary screw compressors, reciprocating compressors, and compression process; recognize gas flow path, compressor components, balance drum and bearings; and interpret lubrication and cooling system, lube oil and oil seal systems, compressor drivers and coupling. 

 

At the completion of the course, participants will be able to carryout compressor operation and compressor performance and efficiency; describe compressor surge and apply compressor control, protection and troubleshooting; compare and select compressors and implement compressor troubleshooting guide; employ preventive maintenance of compressors; and select, maintain and recognize future analysis as well as improve the mechanical skills performance through the implementation of international standards.
