Electrical & Pneumatics

  • Our rotating course offerings include:

    * Designates upcoming class dates listed

  • This three-day seminar covers electrical fundamentals from a troubleshooting perspective. Learn what to expect in operational series, parallel and combination circuits through measuring voltage, resistance and current flow with digital multimeters. Topics include electrical terminology, Ohm’s Law, schematic reading, components, wiring, and safe work practices.

    Course Offerings

    Prerequisite: Electrical Fundamentals (ELEC‑6075) or equivalent

    Three-phase motors, motor starters, wiring, relays, timers, schematics, wiring diagrams, industrial symbology, relay logic, and timer circuits will be covered using discussion and hands-on training equipment.

    Course Offerings

    Prerequisite: Electrical Fundamentals (ELEC‑6075) and Motor Controls & Relay Logic (ELEC‑6076) or equivalent

    Use training equipment with industry-standard devices to improve electrical troubleshooting skills. Includes proven tips and techniques for experts and beginners.

    Course Offerings

    Prerequisite: Knowledge of industrial machine controls

    This class will provide general background theory, applications information and programming practice for mechanics, technicians and engineers who specify or maintain PLC-based systems.

    Course Offerings

    Prerequisite: Basic Allen-Bradley PLCs (ELEC-6078) or equivalent

    In this training, participants will receive an introduction to the “Logix” family of Allen-Bradley Controllers. Topics include an overview of Logix family hardware, an introduction to the RS5000 software, basic ladder logic programming, time, counter, math, compare, tags, organizing projects, uploading/downloading, online editing, and more.

    Course Offerings

    Prerequisite: Recommended prerequisite: Basic RS5000/Logix Programming (ELEC-6080)

    his is an extension of the Basic RS5000 class, the advanced class will help you understand how good PLC program flow and structure can be accomplished and data organization and manipulation techniques, and develop a program to select blocks of data from an HMI for use in recipes, etc. Topics include use of more involved instructions such as subroutines, shift registers, arrays, FIFO’s, indirect addressing, and sequencers.

    Course Offerings

    This course is designed to increase skill levels for engineers, technicians, sales representatives, and anyone involved with manufacturing, process controls, energy generation or automation. Training includes lecture and hands-on usage of actual devices such as photo-electric, inductive, capacitive, and temperature sensors. Interface to PLCs and control techniques will be covered using simulation trainer consoles. Such sensors are keys to green building automation.

    Participants with industrial experience learn the principles of basic pneumatic and electro-pneumatic circuits using a computer layout and simulation program. After any problems with the simulated pneumatic circuits have been diagnosed and fixed, then circuits are constructed and operated on the trainer board using actual valves, cylinders and compressed air.

    This course gives maintenance technicians, specifiers and supervisors insights to basic theory, installation considerations, control wiring, and programming of parameters to utilize VFDs in industrial and commercial applications. This is an excellent opportunity for individuals to apply theory to hands-on lab projects that reflect problems that may be encountered in one’s daily work.

    Course Offerings

    This class helps prepare apprentices for the electrician’s exam by studying the National Electrical Code book.
