Basic course on “Steam traps”

Thanks to the experience gained in over 30 years of activities of steam traps inspections, we have developed a training program to share the knowledge necessary for the choice, the use and the inspection of this type of industrial components.
The basic course presents the fundamental knowledge on steam traps and their different operation modalities; participants will acquire the main methodologies required to check the operating status of these components and will learn the basic parameters for the correct sizing.
Intended for:
- Plants operators
- Inspectors
- Maintenance engineers
- Inspections managers
- Energy managers
Transmitted expertise:
Upon the conclusion of the course, participants will be able to:
- Understand the basic principles of thermodynamics applied to steam traps
- Understand the main operation principles and the various differences
- Identify types and operation principles of steam traps
- Carry out an inspection of the status of a steam trap by means of:
- View
- Ultrasounds
- Thermography(*)
- Update the existing databases and fill in the related sheet on field
- Prepare the technical specification for the request of equivalent products for the maintenance/substitution of malfunctioning components
(*) The participant will have to demonstrate that he/she attended a basic training course on thermography of at least 8 hours.
Duration:
- 2 days in the training hall
- 1 day in the plant for on field practice
Provided documentation:
- Template of the data reporting sheet
- Handbook on steam traps operation principles
- Lecture notes on the analysis methodologies of steam traps (View – Ultrasounds – Thermography)
- Spreadsheet templates for data storage
