Introduction to Flow Measurement (F-101)
July 6, 2026 – July 7, 2026
The class will start by providing instrument techs and engineers with a brief section on the basic understanding of numerous flow technologies. Following this introduction, we will proceed with in-depth training on vortex, magnetic, ultrasonic and Coriolis flow meters. The class will be a combination of classroom and hands-on training on a PTU® (Process Training Unit).

This course provides a deeper understanding of numerous Flow technologies, advancing the students knowledge beyond the information learned in the F-101 Class. This is accomplished by introducing them to additional flow technologies for gas measurement and open channel flow, along with further training on Coriolis, Mag, Vortex and Ultra Sonic Flow Meters. Solutions will also be taught for process related issues and there will be an emphasis on in-depth training on instrumentation filter settings.

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 Water and Wastewater 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.

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.
