Training Program Overview:
This training defines the Preferred Operating Region (POR) and the many design and application considerations used to determine the Allowable Operating Region (AOR). The effects on pump reliability are a focus of the training as well as strategies to maintain operation in the POR.
Modules:
Module 1: Best Efficiency Point (BEP), Preferred Operating Region (POR) and Allowable Operating Region (AOR)
Module 2: Factors considered in determining the Allowable Operating Region
Module 3: Methods to maintain operation in the AOR
Who Should Attend:
This training is designed to educate and train pump engineers, technical sales, pump system owners, designers, and operators throughout the fluid handling and pumping industry.
Course Materials Included:
- Slide Deck
- On-Demand Recording
- Quiz Questions
