Condition Monitoring and
Maintenance Planning of Turbines

Condition Monitoring of turbines is a proactive approach to identify components that present early indications of failure. This way we can formulate our Maintenance Strategy in a more effective way and reduce associated costs. Several sensors are used so that data is measured on-line and off-line and thus we can assess the equipment health and safety.

Target of Maintenance planning is to determine what maintenance work should be done and how it should be carried out.

This GLOMACS training course will highlight:

• Key Turbine Parts and Their Characteristic Frequencies
• Condition Monitoring Methods
• Differences between Off-Line & On-Line Systems
• Symptoms of Ineffective Maintenance Planning
• Detailed Planning of Individual Jobs

By the end of this Condition Monitoring and Maintenance Planning of Turbines training course, participants will learn to:

• Implement optimum maintenance strategies
• Execute systematic techniques for equipment inspection and testing
• Learn how to apply condition monitoring techniques
• Determine latest developments in equipment performance monitoring
• Discuss various maintenance planning techniques

Participants in this Condition Monitoring and Maintenance Planning of Turbines training course will receive thorough training on the subjects covered by the course outline with the Tutor utilizing a variety of proven adult learning teaching and facilitation techniques. Seminar methodology includes lectures, workshops and work presentations, case studies and practical exercises and videos. Practical sessions will be organized during the course for delegates to practice the topics learnt. Participants will be encouraged to participate in group discussions and share their experience.
