You will have an opportunity to discuss pump and compressor construction, design and applications, operations, maintenance, and management issues and be provided with the most up-to-date information and best practices in dealing with the subject.

Practical Pumps and Compressors: Control Operation, Maintenance, and Troubleshooting Course

The Pumps and Compressor workshop is a comprehensive course focussing on the fundamentals of centrifugal pumps and compressors. You will have an opportunity to discuss Pump/Compressor construction, design- applications, operations, maintenance, and management issues and be provided with the most up-to-date information and best practice in dealing with the subject. Towards the end of the workshop, you will have developed the skills and ability to recognise and solve simple pump/compressor problems in a structured and confident manner. This is not an advanced course but one that focuses on the fundamentals and therefore will not be suitable for you if you are a pump or compressor “guru”!
