Pneumatic Troubleshooting – 950-PT1
Troubleshooting is a key skill all technicians must have today. The 950-PT1 Pneumatic Troubleshooting System teaches pneumatic troubleshooting like no other product in the market today. A hands-on learning station models a real world electro-pneumatic machine with 30 faults that can be inserted into the system. Amatrol’s FaultPro allows you to insert faults at will, trouble free.
The 950-PT1 is the first product to offer a realistic troubleshooting experience for students because the faults are inserted throughout the system, including both the pneumatic, mechanical, and electrical components. The system is set up like a real machine with realistic loads, pressures, and heavy-duty pneumatic components, just like students will see in the workplace! The features also make the 950-PT1 an excellent system for teaching advanced pneumatics, system tuning, installation, and maintenance.
The 950-PT1 teaches troubleshooting effectively because the pneumatic system operated under actual load conditions. Each application exposes students to a different type of load including inertial, friction, compression, and static loads. The 950-PT1 gives students experiences they normally could only get on the job. Each of the major circuit panels replicates a common application. The PLC control offers a variety of thumbwheel-selectable programs to change sequences, presenting students with different troubleshooting scenarios.
The 950-PT1 System includes Amatrol’s unique FaultPro computerized troubleshooting system, which automatically inserts faults and tracks student troubleshooting efforts. This system enables students to learn troubleshooting in a self-directed environment, allowing teachers to support more students. FaultPro features on-line student control of the troubleshooting activity though menu-driven screens, making it easy for students to set up and perform their own troubleshooting exercises for both practice and testing sessions. Students get immediate feedback about their responses so they know if they are learning and they receive a record of their skill achievement. An on-line help screen provides step-by-step instructions during the troubleshooting process.
The computerized fault insertion system avoids damage to the equipment that is normally associated with manual fault insertion because it inserts faults electronically. This makes the training equipment last longer while being safer for the student and the teacher.
The 30 faults that make up the fault insertion system present students with realistic troubleshooting experiences. Faults can be inserted into the electrical system, loads, and pneumatic system. Test points and measurement instruments are included so students can troubleshoot in a realistic manner.
