23300 XL Proximity Transducer System Operation
At the end of this section, the students will be able to successfully identify a matched and mismatched system, installation pitfalls, proper installation procedures, and running a probe curve verification using the TK-3.
33500 Monitor System Support Components
At the end of this section, the students will be able to identify the various sources available for the 3500 system, the four different power supplies, and explain the function of a TMR system.
4TDI / RIM Description and Communications
At the end of this section, the students will be able to explain the physical differences between the RIM and TDI and explain how the serial communications ports are used on both Interface modules.
5Power Supply, TDI/RIM, and Keyphasor Module Configuration
At the end of this section, the students will be able to explain the different ways to connect to the rack, the process of uploading and downloading, and general configuration of the power supply, RIM/TDI, and the Keyphasor modules.
6Radial Vibration
At the end of this section, the student will be able to define what radial vibration is and the XY convention, successfully configure the 42M monitor for radial vibration on channels 1 and 2, and connect the appropriate test equipment to these channels.
7Thrust Position
At the end of this section, the student will be able to define what Thrust is, successfully configure the 42M monitor for Thrust on Channels 3 and 4, and connect the appropriate test equipment to these channels.
83500 System Relays
At the end of this section, the students will be able to identify the different types of alarm relays used in the 3300 monitoring system, explain what the OK relay is used for, the difference between Normally Energized and Normally De-energized relays, and write the logic for multiple relay channels.
93500 System Utilities
At the end of this section, the student will be able to use the Verification utility to verify monitors are working properly, use the software switches to bypass channels, and display the System Event and Alarm Event lists.
10Communications Gateway Modules
At the end of this section, the student will be able to explain the value of using Modbus for communications, accessing the registers, and the serial and network connections available.
113500 Monitoring System Troubleshooting
At the end of this section, the students will be able to identify an indication of potential problems within the 3300 monitoring and/or Proximity Transducer system and how to go about the troubleshooting process using the 3500 Configuration software and other tools available.
123500 Data Acquisition / DDE Server Software
At the end of this section, the student will be able to explain the use of Data Acquisition and the difference between machine based and rack based monitoring.
13Operator Display Software
At the end of this section, the student will be able to explain the different ways to connect to the Display software, displaying trend plots, changing alarm setpoints and software switches, and resetting the rack’s latched alarms.
143500 Software Configuration Utility
At the end of this section, the student will be able to explain the use of mapping points to machine trains and create a machine train diagram.
153500 Rack Configuration for Reciprocating Compressors
