Categories > Technical / Mechanical Category:    Pressure Measurement Training Program                   Program Duration : 5 Days Program Date : 19-23 February,2012 Program Location : Cairo, Egypt Program Fees : US$ 3200/Per Person     PROGRAM INTRODUCTION: This innovative program provides a pathway for people currently working in pressure measurement to further develop their knowledge and skills. It consists of a two-day course plus an optional post-course assessment. The course component covers essential knowledge of the calibration and use of a wide range of pressure measuring instruments, their principles of operation and potential sources of error. It incorporates extensive hands-on practical exercises. The assessment is based on the application of knowledge and skills in the workplace. The program is aligned to national industry competency standards which can lead to a nationally recognized Statement of Attainment. PROGRAM OBJECTIVES: The course provides participants with comprehensive knowledge of: the principles of operation of a variety of pressure measuring instruments the processes involved in the use and calibration of pressure equipment the various sources of error that affect pressure measurements PROGRAM OUTLINES: introduction to pressure measurement traceability and international standards vacuum pressure measurement pressure transducers and calibrators barometry, manometry and liquid columns differential and gauge pressure measurement the piston gauge and its use high pressure estimating measurement uncertainty (participants with limited experience would benefit from attending our Introduction to estimating measurement uncertainty course) the use of uncertainties given in NATA-endorsed reports
