Course Description

This practical and highly-interactive course includes various practical sessions and exercises. Theory learnt will be applied using our state-of-the-art simulators. It is estimated that electrical drives and other rotating equipment consume about 50% of the total electrical energy consumed in the world today. The cost of maintaining electrical motors can be a significant amount in the budget item of manufacturing, oil, gas, petrochemical and power industries. This course gives you a thorough understanding of operation, maintenance and failure modes of the Variable Frequency Drives (VFD) and gives you the tools to maintain and troubleshoot such Variable Frequency Drives (VFD). Maximum efficiency, reliability, and longevity of the various types of Variable Frequency Drives (VFD) are of great concern to many industries. These objectives can only be achieved by understanding the characteristics, selection criteria, common problems and repair techniques, preventive and predictive maintenance. This course is a MUST for anyone who is involved in the selection, applications, operation or maintenance of Variable Frequency Drives (VFD). It provides the latest in technology. The course covers how these equipment operate and provides guidelines and rules that must be followed for a successful operation. Their basic design, operating characteristics, specification, selection criteria, advanced fault detection techniques, critical components as well as all maintenance issues are covered in detail.The course is designed to provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of the various types of Variable Frequency Drives. Participants will be able to specify, select, commission and maintain these equipment for their applications. The excellent knowledge and skills that participants gained in this course will help their companies in achieving reduced capital, operating and maintenance costs along with increase in efficiency link to course overview PDF
