IC-100: Basic Electrical & Controls Training

This 32-hour, 4-day training program is designed to familiarize entry-level electricians, equipment operators and other skilled trades with electrical control fundamentals, electric terminology and basic troubleshooting techniques.

IC-101: Troubleshooting Industrial Controls & Ladder Logic

This 32-hour, 4-day training program is designed to familiarize electricians with industrial control components such as relays, timers, proximity switches, limit switches, sensors and other control devices. Participants will also work with protective devices such as fuses, circuit breakers and overloads. Participants will troubleshoot Ladder Logic circuits using a DMM (Digital Multimeter). Participants will also learn and work with Polyphase Circuits including single phase and three phase wiring of motors. Participants will then transition from troubleshooting hardwired ladder logic circuits to PLC Ladder Logic.

MC-100: AC and DC Variable Speed Motor Drives

This 32-hour, 4-day training program is designed to provide maintenance electricians with a thorough understanding of AC and DC motor construction, operation and variable speed control. Hands-on lab exercises are used throughout the training program to simulate actual plant conditions. Course hardware will include Variable Frequency AC and DC Motor Drive Workstations, Circuit Test Workstations, Oscilloscopes and Multimeter test equipment. Hands-on labs will explain operation and troubleshooting of diodes, transformers, SCRʹs, transistors and other electrical control devices.

A-6000: ALLEN-BRADLEY ControlLogix Basic Maintenance & Troubleshooting

This 32-hour, 4-day training program is designed to challenge technician’s troubleshooting skills. The training begins with an introduction to the Logix5000 Hardware, Software, addressing schemes and basic Ladder Instructions. Following this introduction is a series of Hands-on troubleshooting projects using real world interfaces such as conveyors, pick & place robots, remote I/O communications, Ethernet I/O and 1734 interfaces. The participants are assigned to evaluate and troubleshoot a series of equipment problems using a variety of scenarios. Each participant will be challenged to solve hardware problems, software problems, communication conflicts, and other issues that arise when troubleshooting PLC related problems.

A-6100: ALLEN-BRADLEY ControlLogix Programmable Controllers Intermediate Maintenance & Troubleshooting

This 32-hour, 4-day training program is designed to be the “next step” in building competence around the troubleshooting and maintenance of the Allen-Bradley ControlLogix Programmable Controller Systems. The first day is dedicated to reviewing and practicing the skills developed in our A-6000 class. This course will provide students with a deeper understanding of the topics covered in the Fundamentals class. Students will improve their troubleshooting skills by learning to program ladder logic projects from functional specifications rather than merely understanding ladder logic provided to them. The course is designed to be a deep dive into the most common ladder logic instructions, a challenging approach to deciding which instructions to use in projects they create and meet the criteria spelled out in the hands-on exercises. This deeper understanding of the instructions and how they function will enhance the end users troubleshooting efficiency.

A-6200: ALLEN-BRADLEY ControlLogix Programmable Controllers Advanced Maintenance & Troubleshooting

This 32 hour, 4 day training program provides students with hands-on experience using the advanced control and diagnostic capabilities of the Allen-Bradley ControlLogix Programmable Controller and the RSLogix5000 programming software package. Application troubleshooting exercises are used throughout the course to give students hands-on experience solving typical problems encountered in the factory.
