Are you considering PROFIBUS for your plant? Perhaps you already have a PROFIBUS network but feel your staff need more training in troubleshooting, programming, network calculations or advanced diagnostics.

 

As a certified PROFIBUS Competence Centre Endress+Hauser offers an intensive four day PROFIBUS PA Professional training course, at your place or ours. The course covers all the necessary theoretical and practical knowledge necessary to perform accurate segment design, network calculations and advanced bus diagnosis using the latest PROFIBUS tools.

 

Three days are spent in theoretical and hands-on training, and the fourth day consists of three one-hour exams. Successful graduates will

receive a certificate.

 

Who should attend

This training is highly beneficial for engineers planning PROFIBUS plants, system programmers, service technicians/installers, control and instrumentation technicians and educators.

 

Testimonials

"I thought we had a reasonable understanding of PROFIBUS systems. I was wrong. This course gave our instrument technicians the skills they need to configure and troubleshoot our PROFIBUS networks. They

now have the confidence to support the new technology

- Rusty Hopper, Falconbridge, Sudbury Smelter

 

"The course covered the PROFIBUS thoroughly from both a theoretical and hands-on viewpoint. The instructor answered questions well and a good effort was made to bring in other vendors' systems. I would

recommend the course for anyone who has to design, install, configure or maintain PROFIBUS systems” - Phil Nelson, Project Metallurgist, Falconbridge 

 

Who Should Attend?

Cost savings throughout a plant's life cycle from planning, commissioning and maintenance.  The successful trainee will be able to perform accurate segment design, network calculations, and advanced bus diagnosis by means of the latest PROFIBUS tools, all-resulting in reduced troubleshooting efforts.
