Maintenance and Operating of Rotating Equipment

This workshop will introduce to participants different types of pumps, compressors, turbines and associated equipment such as bearing, seals, fillers, and separates etc.  The focus in the course will be on the diagnostics and troubleshooting techniques.  Likewise, efficient and troubles – free operation of pumps, compressors and turbines will be discussed in depth along with their ability to control the main operational parameter and will enlarge emphasis on physical principle and clear technical reasoning.
