Compressed Air Systems Efficiency
Compressed air is among the most expensive utilities in a plant and among the most wasted, mostly through leaks nobody hears. This course covers running an efficient compressed air system.
Course outline
What this programme covers, module by module.
- 01What compressed air actually costs to produce

- 04Control strategies and multiple compressor sequencing
- 05Pressure, storage, distribution and pressure drop
- 06Dryers, filters, condensate and air quality
- 07Quantifying savings and verifying them afterwards

Planned Preventive Maintenance
Reactive maintenance is the most expensive way to keep plant running. This course covers the design and running of a preventive maintenance programme: what to maintain, how often, and how to prove the programme is working.
Reliability Centred Maintenance
Reliability centred maintenance asks what each asset must do and what happens when it cannot, then selects maintenance accordingly. This course teaches the analysis method and how to apply it without drowning in paperwork.
Root Cause Failure Analysis
Equipment that fails repeatedly is usually being repaired rather than fixed. This course builds the investigative discipline to trace a failure to its physical, human and system roots and to implement corrections that hold.
