Maintaining and Troubleshooting Allen-Bradley Logix 5000 Control Systems

This NCED resident training course provides comprehensive instruction which encompasses the ControlLogix, CompactLogix, and FlexLogix control system platforms currently utilized on a wide variety of equipment. The primary focus is on developing the skills essential to maintaining quality performance of Allen-Bradley Programmable Automation Control Systems (PACs), and restoring malfunctioning systems to operational status with minimal down-time and resources.

National Electrical Code

This course provides knowledge, understanding, and skill in the use of the National Electrical Code (NEC).

Maintenance Welding Technology

This course provides information related to oxyacetylene and plasma welding, shielded metal arc welding and gas metal arc welding. Students learn eye protection, fire and electrical safety, gas bottle storage and handling, and visually inspect welds, and the advantages of using the proper type of welding method for the application presented.

IES Pre-req PATN

Introduction to the basic principles of electricity, direct current (DC), alternating current (AC), series, parallel and series/parallel circuits, electrical formulas, generators, reactive/capacitive circuits, electrical test instruments, and solid state devices. Electrical and mechanical safety is stressed by discussions of equipment conditions and proper use of personal safety practices. This course is Part One of two courses. Reference Part Two, Industrial Electrical Service, 55687-05.

Industrial Electrical Service

This course provides application of electrical principles up to 480 volts, alternating current (AC), transformers, motors and motor controls, and wiring methods. Instruction is a combination of classroom discussion and laboratory training on installation, troubleshooting, repair and preventive maintenance of building electrical and basic conveyor motor control systems. Emphasis will be placed on electrical and mechanical safety and utilization of the National Electrical Code.

Hydraulic and Pneumatic Fundamentals

This course provides intensive hands-on training utilizing industrial components related to hydraulic and pneumatic systems. Students will learn to safely work with fluid power systems, to identify components, to read schematics and to improve equipment efficiency. The emphasis will be on safety, while receiving 4 days of hydraulics, 4 days of pneumatics with 3 hours of hands-on lab activities per day.

Mechanical Skills Training

This course is designed to teach students the safe and proper use of hand tools, portable electric and pneumatic power tools and common shop equipment. Students will use tachometers, rulers, calipers, and micrometers. This course will allow students to be able to define mechanical fundamentals, identify basic machine structure, match tools to specific tasks, and use technical drawings.

Fundamental Maintenance Skills

This course will offer training in the basic concepts and troubleshooting of AC and DC industrial application power distribution, adjustments, fault monitoring, fuses, circuit breakers, emergency stop and interlock lines, motor control lines, solid state and mechanical relays, tachometers and jam detection circuits. The course provides students with basic computer concepts related to maintenance, and heavy hands-on interaction with equipment and tool application. Students will build an electronics project board.

Electronics Technology Training

This course will involve students in theory of operation and practical hand-on experiments and troubleshooting of direct current, alternating current, analog and digital electronics disciplines. Students will use electronic trainers, oscilloscopes, function generators and digital volt ohm amp meters to work on electrical circuits; troubleshoot an inductor and capacitor; learn the theoretical operation of a transformer; perform analysis of a transistor circuit and more.

Analytical Trouble Shooting Skills

In this course, students use computer simulation of five different circuits to practice up to 60 problems. Analytical Troubleshooting (ATS) involves the use of a DVOM trainer, on the student's desk, to locate opens and shorts to ground. Accurate documentation is stressed as the student follows the troubleshooting process from beginning to end for each problem. The correct troubleshooting answer is a result of proper application of the troubleshooting process.

Key elements of ATS are:

 • Fast paced

 • A maximum of 10 students per class
