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).

Course Objectives:

  • Process Control Terms and Technologies
  • Common Control Signals
  • Temperature Instruments
  • Pressure Fundamentals
  • Differential Pressure Transmitters (Level)

SCOTT CHILDS

TRAINER/SERVICE ENGINEER

Scott Childs has spent the last 40 years working with instrumentation in the field service industry, performing process measurement and control support. During this time, he managed jobs, projects, people, performed start-ups, provided consultation for customers, calibrated instrumentation, provided customer training and helped trouble-shoot various difficult application and instrumentation issues to help customer achieve their process measurement requirements and needs.

His career although very diverse, has involved spending time in almost every type of product manufacturing plant, which has given him a very broad knowledge of how different industries operate and ideas that can be carried over from one industry to another, to resolve similar process measurement issues. The time spent within these industries, has been very helpful in understanding what instruments work best in various applications and how and where to install them to achieve the best results. This allows him to teach through experience and pass his knowledge onto others.
