Course Description

This course provides a deeper understanding of numerous Flow and Level technologies, advancing the students’ knowledge beyond the information learned in the I -101 Basic Instrumentation Class. This is accomplished by providing them with additional flow and level technologies, process related issues and instrumentation filter settings. Additionally, there will be an emphasis on in-depth understanding of Time of Flight, ToF technologies and envelope curves along with implementing proper techniques of configuration, calibration, and troubleshooting. All of this information learned will improve the students’ knowledge to keep things running efficiently. The class will be a combination of classroom and hands-on training on a PTU® (Process Training Unit).
