C. Safety Valve Maintenance
Training
R
ising costs of maintenance and repair in the Utility
and Process Industries indicate the need for trained
maintenance personnel. Baker Hughes conducts
service seminars that can help your maintenance and
engineering personnel to reduce these costs.
Seminars, conducted either at your site, or at
our manufacturing plant, provide participants
with an introduction to the basics of preventative
maintenance. These seminars help to minimize
downtime, reduce unplanned repairs and increase
valve safety. While they do not make "instant" experts,
they do provide the participants with "Hands On"
experience with Consolidated Valves. The seminar
also includes valve terminology and nomenclature,
component inspection, trouble shooting, setting
and testing, with emphasis on the ASME Boiler and
Pressure Vessel Code.

Green Tag Center (GTC).
