This one day course aims to provide an understanding of how ball valves work; their applications, functions and common defects/suitable maintenance solutions

This partially workshop based course provides an understanding of how butterfly valves work, the functions they perform, their limitations, advantages and disadvantages.

The one day Control Valves course is largely workshop based, emphasizing the main causes of cavitation, flashing and erosion in Control Valves. The course is intended for those who already have some working knowledge of Control Valves but are looking to heighten their awareness.

This course focuses on the benefits of Direct spring PSV use and an understanding of the theory surrounding their operation, calibration, troubleshooting, overhaul and test procedures. Training includes a workshop-based session and attendees will gain an understanding of relevant terminology and industry standards.

Designed to build basic valve awareness, this introductory course is suitable for those who have no prior knowledge or who have a basic appreciation of the primary valve types.

Attendees will be able to identify and operate a range of valve types, spot the early warning signs of any potential problems and test valves to ensure they are functioning correctly. They will understand when and how to apply basic valve maintenance techniques.

This 2 day course is focused on Pilot Operated PSVs and provides advanced knowledge on their design, operation, calibration, troubleshooting, overhaul and test procedures. We also offer a 2 day Direct Spring PSV course and a 3 day combined course that covers both Direct Spring and Pilot Operated PSVs.

Each candidate will appreciate plug valve characteristics and will be able to identify and distinguish between lubricated and non-lubricated plug valves.

It's paramount for safety that anyone working around PSVs understands how they function, has the ability to recognise common faults and knows exactly how to rectify these.

Attendees will build a basic awareness of how PSVs operate, their construction, characteristics common applications, operation and basic PSV terminology. They will gain an appreciation for problems that may be encountered in the field.

This two day course focuses on PSV test types and the interpretation of valve data, test specifications and acceptance criteria. Following training, attendees will understand whether a test is accepted or failed, recognise if a test has been sabotaged and will appreciate the consequences of incorrect inspection techniques.
