Troubleshooting 201 (TS-201)

July 22, 2025 July 25, 2025

Following this introduction, you will spend four days with our instructor who has 38 years of field experience. This time will be spent troubleshooting many of the process and instrument related issues he has seen and re-created for you to trouble-shoot.

Troubleshooting will be on all instrumentation lines, Flow, Level, Pressure and Temperature. This class will be a half-day of review and the remaining time will all be spent conducting labs. Feel free to bring your own Mulitmeter, laptop or hand-held instrumentation communication device (Field Xpert SMT70, 475, TREX, laptop with DeviceCare, FieldCare) or you can use one of ours. Before taking this class, the Basic Instrumentation I-101 should be completed.
