Knowledge of Process Control Devices

Control Valve Training

Knowledge of process control devices within a plant is often passed down from generation to generation. At the same time, advances in process technology and methodology must be brought into the plant. Otherwise, in-house standards for device setup and maintenance can become based on outdated theory. The result is a valve or instrument that may be functioning -- but not living up to its capabilities.

Fisher^Ž and Vinson have made a commitment to helping our customers find and keep superior performance. We deliver a great variety of factory, local, and on-site training in field devices. Learn More>

In addition to factory schools, Vinson and Fisher have two courses planned for 2007 which are designed specifically for instrument and valve technicians who are responsible for control valve, actuator, positioner, and controller installation. These courses will be held at Vinson's office in Odessa, Texas. Learn More>
