OVERVIEW

Compressed air is used widely throughout industry and is often considered the “fourth utility” (after electricity, water and gas) at many facilities. Almost every industrial plant, from a small machine shop to an immense pulp and paper mill have some type of compressed air system. In many cases, the compressed air system is so vital that the facility cannot operate without it. A properly managed compressed air system can save energy, reduce maintenance, decrease downtime, increase production throughput, and improve product quality.

The course is designed for participants who have little or no knowledge of air compressors. This course is also designed to introduce the participants to the various compressor terminologies frequently used, the various types of compressors used, the various parts and to some basic design. The overall objective is to give the participants a functional knowledge of basic compressor theory.

AFTER ATTENDING THIS COURSE YOU WILL RETURN TO YOUR JOB…
  1. Understanding the design, construction, operations and maintenance aspects of the various types of air compressors used.
  2. Mastering on the various costs involved in compressed air.
  3. Being able of learn the safety and environmental issues associated with air compressors.
OBJECTIVES
  1. Becoming super secretaries and top administrative assistants.
  2. Increasing the effectiveness of these valuable assistants.
  3. Raising the confidence level in helping bosses and executives to achieve their goals faster.
  4. Upgrading existing competencies to face the many challenges today
