5100 - Instrumentation and Control Basics
Complete 3-day training course - limit of 10 participants per class
Boost Product Quality and Efficiency with Better Instrumentation Practices
In an industrial plant, having precise, well-configured instruments can make the difference between an approximate process output and predictable product quality. It can also mean less input waste and better energy use, not to mention a safer plant.
This course aims to increase the technician's knowledge, confidence and comfort level with instrumentation. By gaining those skills, the participant will be able to intervene on the plant's instruments in a way that benefits the process as a whole.
