Body and Trim Maintenance (ACV03)
About this class
This four individual lesson program trains participants in the function, operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of common types of control valves.
Prerequisites
This lesson is designed for participants familiar with industrial process control, specifically single loop control and multiple loop control, as well as control valve body types and trim, and positioners and actuators. A working knowledge of fluid flow characteristics, fluid flow measurement, and typical elements in process loops is recommended.
Description
This lesson applies the concepts and terminology associated with control valve body types and trim, actuators and position to the disassembly, repair, parts replacement and reassembly of linear and rotary action control valves. Symptoms of valve malfunctions, lapping, and post-repair tests are also covered.
