PRI : Practice of Instrumentation
37h00 – 5 days
OBJECTIVES> Attendees will acquire the base theory of operation of measuring instruments, control valves, and positioners. |
TEACHING METHOD> The course provides valuable information via lectures on theoretical concepts, backed-up by direct hands-on training in fully equipped classrooms. |
PREREQUISITESKnowledge of basic mathematical concepts and physical laws, although not required, would be helpful. |
AUDIENCEOperations and Maintenance Technicians and Engineers, who are new to instrumentation, or who whish to be “cross trained”. |
