GIL 135 Hydraulics: Operation & Troubleshooting                                                        (5 DAYS)

OVERVIEW:

Fluidic drives and controls in technical and industrial applications hold an increasing importance. Their degree of complexity and refinement grows continuously, requiring the permanent enlarging of the proficiency of staff working in this field. This course provides maintenance personnel and production operators etc. with the skills and knowledge necessary to carry out maintenance tasks on industrial hydraulic systems.

A practical approach is taken throughout this course with participants gaining valuable ‘hands-on’ experience with participants gaining useful practical experience on purpose-built training rigs which make use of typical commercial components and are designed specifically to simulate the hydraulic systems found in industry. Comprehensive course notes will be provided and ISA videos on Hydraulic Systems. Students will be issued a certificate at the end of the training.

TRAINING FOR:

Personnel involved in design, installation, operation and maintenance of Industrial Hydraulic system

PREREQUISITES:

GIL165 (Instrumentation, Process and Control Essentials) or Equivalent relevant experience

Among others, you will cover:

• Fluid Power principles and variables
• Pumps and Motors
• Interpreting fluid power and symbols
• Valves, actuators and Dampers
• Hydraulic fluid selection
• System Design for Hydraulic Control
• Calibrating Hydraulic instruments, Maintenance and troubleshooting
• Safety while working with pneumatic systems

OBJECTIVES

At the end of the course, participants will be able to:

• Design and interpret basic pneumatic system
• Apply safe working practices when working with hydraulic systems
• Understand the relevant theory (units, flow, pressure, temperature, forces, etc.)
• Understand the operation of hydraulic circuits and components typically used in industry
• Understand how to use hydraulic test equipment to determine the nature and location of faults
• Identify and rectify faults on cylinders and valves
• Assess the condition of a hydraulic system by oil analysis
• Use hydraulic circuit drawings and fault-finding charts as a systematic aid to fault-finding.
