4-day hands-on course where students will be exposed to a variety of instrumentation used in the food and beverage industries.

This hands-on course on instrumentation will start by providing maintenance and engineering personnel with a basic understanding of wiring, signals, instrumentation technologies, applications, and installations.  All the common instruments found in today’s food and beverage industries will be examined from a view applicable to virtually any manufacturer’s equipment operation, installation, start-up, calibration and troubleshooting procedures.  All instrumentation technologies will include a theory on the instrument, followed by a lab on that technology.  By the time the student completes this course, they will have a very well-rounded understanding of all that is needed to start up and troubleshoot virtually any instrument, which will keep any plant process down time to a minimum.  The class will be a combination of classroom and hands-on training on a PTU® (Process Training Unit).
