ELECTRO PNEUMATICS COURSE

Course 1: Pneumatics

Title of the Course 1: Pneumatic Control and Design

Course Description:The Pneumatic Basic Level course provides knowledge of the physical principles of pneumatics as well as of the function and use of pneumatic components. A set of components can be used to construct simple pneumatic controls.

Training Aims:The Pneumatics Course offers knowledge and skills ranging from the fundamentals of pneumatic control technology to complex combinational circuits. At the advanced level for instance, program controls are constructed incorporating stepper modules, safety features (emergency-stop/emergency stop resetting), and the quick stepper. Also fine adjustment of components (e.g. back pressure valve, proximity sensor) can be carried out.

Background required:General technical knowledge.

Duration:2.5 days (24 hours).

Syllabus:
1. Physical principles of pneumatics.
2. Function and use of pneumatic components.
3. Recognizing and drawing of pneumatic symbols.
4. Representation of motion sequences and operating status.
5. Drawing of pneumatic circuit diagrams according to standard.
6. Direct and indirect manual controls.
7. Direct and indirect stroke-dependent controls.
8. Logical AND/OR function of switch-on signals.
9. Time-dependent controls with pressure sequence valves.
10. Trouble-shooting in simple pneumatic controls.
11. Safety regulations.

Course 2: Electro-Pneumatics

Title of Course 2: Electro-Electro Pneumatics

Course Description:The Electro-pneumatics Basic Level course provides basic training in electro-pneumatic control technology, providing knowledge of the physical principles of electricity as well as of the function and use of electro-pneumatic elements. A set of components can be used to construct simple electro-pneumatic controls.

Training aims:With this course you are instructed in the physical fundamentals of electricity. Simple electro-pneumatic controls can be designed with the equipment set as can complex combinational circuits linking input and output signals and program controls. The assembly of displacement-dependent control systems using sensors of predetermining counters, according to a displacement step diagram, process or time controlled sequential cycles are examples of the types of application demonstrated.

Background required:General Technical knowledge.

Duration:2.5 (24 hours).

Syllabus:
1. Physical principles of electrical systems and pneumatics.
2. Function and use of electro-pneumatic components.
3. Recognizing and drawing electro-pneumatic symbols.
4. Representation of Motion sequences and operating status.
5. Drawing of pneumatic and electrical circuit diagrams.
6. Direct and indirect manual controls.
7. Direct and indirect stroke-dependent controls.
8. Logical AND/OR function of switch- on signals.
9. Time-dependent controls with time-delay valves.
10. Pressure-dependent controls with pressure sequence valves.
11. Trouble-shooting in simple electro-pneumatic controls.
