Mechanical/Basic course
 Small pump training 

To understand pump structure and acquire skills in disassembling/assembling pump from the very beginning.
 ・To learn about types, structures and features of pump via pump sectional models in an easy-to-understand way.
 ・To further study work procedures for disassembling/inspecting/assembling small pump and performance maintenance/management through pump performance testing.
 ・To understand mechanisms of pump abnormal phenomena (cavitation/water hammer) through practical experience.

Understand types/structures/features of pump. Learn about pump abnormal phenomena and their solutions. (Cavitation testing equipment)
Learn about work procedures/inspection points through practically disassembling/inspecting/assembling pumps. Learn how to assess pump performance through practical performance testing.
 
Curriculum
Schedule Subjects Contents
1st day Outline of pump Gain knowledge about types/features of pump, structures/functions of each part, points of operation management and inspection.
Disassembling/assembling of pump
【Practical training】
Gain knowledge about structures/functions of pump through practically disassembling/ assembling pumps and acquire basic expertise of dissembling/assebling rotating machines (how to use tools/measuring instruments and how to do centering).
2nd day
3rd day Abnormal pump phenomena Use phenomena reproduction equipment to study abnomal phenomena such as water hammer, cavitation and so on as well as their solutions (operating methods of pump, etc.)
Pump performance 【Practical training】 Learn how to read performance curves (pump head/shaft power/efficiency), study what causes pump performance down through practical disembling and measuring of pump, and learn how to assess performance by drawing performance curves based on performance testing of real equipment.
