ROTATING EQUIPMENT FOR OPERATION

Location
Dubai, UAE
Date
From Date: 10-Feb-2025   
To Date: 14-Feb-2025
Duration
5 days
Language
ENGLISH
Discipline
MECHANICAL ENGINEERING
Introduction

Rotating equipments are essential part of any plants. Pumps, compressors, air or gas compressors, gas turbines, steam turbines, and expanders are found in big numbers and operators must be familiar with their operation and reasons of failures to avoid plant shutdown and increases these machines available time. This of course will affect greatly the productivity and profitability of the plant. 

This course is designed to provide Operators a deep understanding of the rotating equipment exists in their plants. Operators will learn about the components and construction of these types of equipment in addition to the associated auxiliary systems. The performance and the method of operation of such equipment will be explained in details in order to have a trouble free operation of the plant equipment. Limit of operation, control systems of these machines must be very known by the operator. Alarm systems and shutdown tripping systems will also be discussed thoroughly in the course.
