Categories > Technical / Mechanical Category:    Hands-On Boiler Operation Training   Program Duration : 5 Days Program Date : 18-22 February,2012 Program Location : Cairo, Egypt Program Fees : US$3200/Per Person    PROGRAM INTRODUCTION: This 5-day class follows content as listed in our Basic Boiler Operations program but focuses on the "how and why" to safely operate a boiler. Fundamentals are covered including types of boilers, and design and components, such as valves, tubes, fans, dampers, compressors, pumps, regulators, as well as temperature, pressure and water level controls. Besides the fundamentals, students learn about boiler water pathways, the principles of combustion and thermodynamics and their relationship to optimal boiler performance. Boiler procedures, safety, and water chemistry are also discussed. The class then shifts gears to boiler operations. PROGRAM OBJECTIVES: Proper installation procedures of components Reduce costs to outside contractors Increased knowledge of industry terminology Understanding diagrams and schematics Reduce energy costs Learn burner management systems How to properly maintain boiler water chemistry to avoid scaling, pitting, and other potential problems. Start ups and shut down sequences are discussed in detail Learn proper operational techniques including daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly optimal boiler maintenance practices. Combustion testing, inspection procedures How to appropriate boiler record keeping are also covered. Learn many valuable boiler operational techniques including the best ways to achieve the highest possible efficiency rate while achieving low Nox emissions How to reduce fuel costs, and how to properly maintain and extend the life of the boiler. WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
