Innovation Series LCI™ for Turbine Static Start Applications

What will I learn from this course?

This course is designed for engineering and maintenance personnel who configure, and maintain the LCI static starter. Laboratory assignments include hardware identification, pump panel troubleshooting and diagnostics, Hyper terminal communications, understanding the monitor commands, and user diagnostic tests.This course will utilize Simulators, and a full functioning LCI starter. Lectures and hands-on exercises develop a thorough understanding of the equipment.

Who should attend?

Qualified engineers and technicians who wish to gain an understanding of the LCI synchronous generator starting system.

Prerequisites

Electrical experience / education and familiarity with Windows. Reasonable computer skills Instruction is given in English; therefore, a reasonable ability to read and understand spoken English is required. Participants are encouraged to research their turbine-generator equipment and documentation to verify they have an Innovation Series LCI static starter, and to bring a copy of their system elementary drawing with them to class.
