Introduction
Training course introducion / brief
The course is designed for participants to understand the principles of
the Types, function, Specification and classification of valves. Then
cover the valves maintenance, troubleshooting and repair This course
presents a practical approach to the function, servicing, installation,
repair, overhaul, upgrading and modifications of these components.
Valves usually appear to be simple in form and operation, such as those
of a manual Off-On Valve, Check Valve, or the Fixed Valve type such as
an Orifice, Blind, etc
