Maintenance Training

MS115 - 14 hours

COURSE OBJECTIVES

Realize an effective detection and interpret the results correctly;
Understand the functioning principles of detectors;
Use the detectors in an appropriate and optimal way in order to maximize the lifespan.

AUDIENCE

Leak detector users

PREREQUISITES

Prior experience on leak detectors or vacuum installations is preferable.

INNOVATIVE TEACHING RESOURCES

In order to favour the acquisition of practical know-how (precautions and limitations of use, one or two working methods, functioning of equipment) you will be instructed by handling detectors, observing and analysing different situations.
Maximum 6 persons per group.
