Approximately 25-50%

Summary Description: 

Students will first solidify the basic concepts of electricity, Ohm's Law, series & parallel circuits, proper electrical testing methods, and gain familiarity with common components, symbols, and terminology, after which they will begin to build and troubleshoot increasingly complex circuits. Then students will utilize knowledge gained to troubleshoot realistic control circuits using simulation software in groups and individually. After the course, students will be granted continued access to the simulation software for a period of 2-weeks, and then have the option to purchase personal copies at a very affordable rate if desired.

Summary Description: 

This course introduces students to the core fundamentals involved with modern industrial instrumentation, measurement, calibration, and controls. This course places heavy emphasis on the topics that are often missed in other instrumentation training programs and that are usually misunderstood in industry and cause many problems..

This course is useful for anyone from a mechanical technician or operator needing to better understand the instrumentation associated with their systems up to senior instrumentation technicians and engineers. The topics presented are based on decades of expert observations of the problems and mistakes made throughout the instrumentation and controls fields.
