Automation & controls Course

With expansion & transformation in the Marine Industry, Automations & Controls, has to a large extent, put back the human element onboards the ships.
Current ships outfitted with complicated machineries & naval techniques require cautious managing at the time of operation & maintaining. It has been comprehended that there is mounting requirement for formulating & sharpening the skill of Marine Engineer to realize the work, maintaining & trouble-shooting of the different automated control equipment.
This program is planned to organize the Marine Engineers to face the challenge of current ships in Automations & Controls. It deals with the former, but till extensively rampant, pneumatic automations device & the extra current Program Logic Controllers.
This program offers a round-table for theoretical lectures liberation, computer simulation exercise, practical coaching on the pneumatic component & on the P.L.C. & GD guiding to development in competencies & self-assurance in managing automation equipments.
Program Target:
By the end of the program, candidates will be in a position to realize the:
· Concept of automatic controls.
· Work & maintaining of Temp, Pressures, Flows, Levels & other measuring equipments.
· Function & maintaining of different type of Transmitter, Controller, Actuator, Valve Positioner & control valve with their features
· Boiler controller-Boiler water stage controller & Air or Fuel combustion controller.
· Function & maintaining of the Automatic Controller with calibrations.
· The function & maintaining aspect of the Program Logic Controllers.

The program is suitable for:
Management stage Marine Engineer & Electrical Officer
