Course Introduction:

Pneumatic Air is used for many industrial applications including for actuators and valves, motors, conveying, instrumentation, ESDV circuits etc.

This course is designed to provide basic concepts and practical advice on how to Design Pneumatic & Electro – Pneumatic Circuits and use them for process automation of many units. The course covers fundamentals of pneumatics including the air compressor and properties of air, pneumatic and electro pneumatic components, and industrial applications of the same. It also provides exposure to software tools used for design and simulation.

Guidelines for operations and maintenance are also provided to make it useful for day-to-day requirements

Course Objectives:

Upon completion of this course, participant will be able to:-

Learn pneumatic air fundamentals including generation and distribution
Understand working principles of pneumatic and electro pneumatic components
Learn to carry out successful automation from laboratory to the real life project
Understand operations and maintenance of Pneumatic & Electro – Pneumatic components
Know the software tools used for design, engineering and simulation of circuits
Develop skills to diagnose / troubleshoot pneumatic and electro pneumatic circuits.

Who Should Attend?

Mechanical, Electrical, Instrumentation and Process Engineers, Project Engineers, Maintenance Engineers and Supervisors interested to work in the field of Hydraulics, Automation and Process Control. The course will also definitely be beneficial for the all the other department people concerned with the plant operations, production, maintenance and safety. It could be also useful for the procurement and quality personnel.
