After participating in the seminar, you will be able to:

• Gain an awareness of the performance characteristics of pumps and compressors.
• Increase the reliability of your pumps and compressors by understanding operational and maintenance aspects.
• Become familiar with the components of pumps and compressors
• Appreciate the influence of fluid flow and equipment connected to pumps and compressors

Description
Pumps and compressors are essential components in almost all industries in that they are required to meet system demands and operate reliably.  Further, since they can consume approximately 30% of a plant’s total energy use, efficient operation is essential.  Pumps and compressors therefore need to be cost efficient and reliable. 

By attending this course you will gain an understanding of the characteristics of various types of pumps and compressors and their components. The course will provide information on the operation, maintenance and optimal selection of centrifugal and positive displacement pumps, as well as positive displacement and dynamic compressors.
