CWEA Pumps 101 Bundle Series

CWEA Member: $90.00
Non-Member: $120.00

4.2 contact hours towards CSM, MT, EIT, AWT certifications.
This series includes the following minute sessions. 

Optimize pump station management with web-based remote monitoring and control (30 Min) 
This presentation will highlight the benefits of utilizing a web-based platform to remotely monitor your pumping stations. The audience will learn about the architecture of this type of system along with the data that can be monitored remotely.
Learning Objectives:
Identify applications for web-based SCADA systems.
Explain the system architecture.
Understand how to optimize pump station operations with remote monitoring.
Get the most use out of their data.

Ultrasonic vs Radar vs Laser in Pumping Stations (1 Hr) 
Reliable level control in remote pumping and lifting stations has continually proven to be a difficult task due to the dynamic nature of their construction and limitations of technology. We'll be examining the most common non-contacting forms of level measurement and recent developments in laser measurement.
Learning Objectives:
Determine what installation situations dictate what technology to use
Differentiate operating principles of the technology presented
Recognize common symptoms of field failures and how to address them
Calculate cost justification based on existing budget, man hours, and complexity of the project"

Pumping Physics 101 (2 Hrs)
NPSHA vs. NPSHR and Effect on Pump Operation
Cavitation is one of the leading causes of pump failure as it causes impellers, and casings to erode rapidly and increases vibration that contributes to premature bearing and seal failure. Understanding the contributing factors helps avoid potential pump failures caused by cavitation.
Learning Objective(s):
After participating in this session, attendees will be able to:
Better understand the contributing factors that proper available suction pressure can have on pump performance.
Describe how piping design can affect pump performance and learn how to avoid potential problems.
Discuss pump curves and how to identify the proper means of selecting a pump to operate without cavitation.

Pumping Systems: Energy Efficiency vs. Operating Efficiency
Addressing the current issues of keeping pump stations operational with less maintenance down time requires us to look at how the station is designed and what the proper pump selection should be to meet the demands of each individual application. Provides a comparison of the energy consumption of different impeller designs to the higher cost of maintenance to unplug clogged pumps on a regular basis.
Learning Objective(s): 
After participating in this session, attendees will be able to:
Make more informed decisions about selecting the proper equipment to provide peak performance for a specific pumping application.
Compare the differences between system energy savings and reduced maintenance costs and make selections based on the greater of the two.
Identify critical steps to enhance strategic thinking, innovation and insight. """

Registrants who view the live webinar to see the slides and hear the audio and then enter the correct attention check code (directions below) will receive 4.2 contact hours towards CSM, MT, EIT, AWT CWEA's certifications. To receive your contact hours for viewing the recording, you will need to view each video in the series. Upon completion of the last video in the series, the system will automatically unlock the attention check code for you view.   

Please note, all user activity of CWEA certification holders on the Online Wastewater Education Network is subject to the CWEA Code of Ethics standards for professional conduct and ethics. Certification holders should receive credit for a training only once within the same contact hour period. Any attempt to undermine the certification process may be subject to ethics procedures and possible sanctions. It is not possible to receive contact hours for both attending the live webinar and viewing the recording.  

Once you have entered the correct attendance check codes, you will be able to create and download an electronic certificate of completion under the "Contents" tab.
