This course provides a deeper dive into the applications of reciprocating compressor analysis data. Advanced topics to be covered include pulsation and resonance, cylinder stretch, vibration signatures for reciprocating compressors, and Operational Deflection Shape (ODS) testing. Through case histories and class participation, attendees will learn how to apply the analysis results to everyday compressor operation.
During this reciprocating compressor training, attendees will also benefit from guest speakers – Allied Reliability Subject Matter Experts who will share their knowledge of new equipment and technologies relevant to the course topics and equipment reliability, including the latest design trends of compressor components such as pressure packing, rings, rider bands, and valves and compressor lubrication (oil types, divider block, pump-to-point lubricators).
