OVERALL OBJECTIVE: To present mechanical information, explanations, demonstrate procedures and techniques, and provide instruction which enables program participants to operate, inspect and maintain the governor systems at the work site, completely and comprehensively.
DURATION: 5 Days - Basic Theory Only
10 Days - Theory and Practical
TRAINING GUIDELINES: The program is normally delivered to Mechanical Maintainers charged with the responsibility for governor maintenance but the introduction and basics portion of the program can be delivered to a (slightly larger) combined or individual group of operators, electrical/electronics persons, supervisors, engineers, and planners. Time will be required on site or at least to work with local manuals and/or information to have the content customized to the equipment and duties of participants. The local COMPANY will provide the instructor with the target participants present position, relevant experience, the number of participants, (6 ideal), provide manufacturers manuals as requested by the instructor, and indicate the type of governors to be covered and the extent of the program. Local (company) expectations not listed here are to be passed on to the instructor prior to the program package being put together for agreement and clarification. This program to be delivered at the work location. The first two days are introduction to, and basics of, governors and can be presented to mixed trade groups. The first five days are classroom sessions to explain the theory of operation and present safety practices to the tradespersons expected to work with the governors. The second five days- using the local Preventative Maintenance Program (list of tasks) reviewed, redeveloped, developed in class or as provided, by the local management, - the participants will be coached through the inspection and maintenance tasks as applicable.
INSTRUCTIONAL OBJECTIVES: At the conclusion of the workshop each participant will be able to:
I. Explain the operation of the governor (or governors if more than one type and make are being covered).
II. Identify all components of the governor system and appropriate auxiliary equipment
III. Explain the mechanical inspection and maintenance requirements of the governor(s).
IV. Explain the function of the major governor components specifically:
Pilot valve assembly, compensating dashpot assembly, main valve assembly, auxiliary valve, vibration components filtering systems, flyball head assembly/transducer, PMG/SSG, speed adjustment and speed drop mechanisms, restoring mechanisms, governors, pumping system including the accumulator tank and servo motors.
V. Dismantle/Inspect/Reassemble
Pilot valve assembly, compensating dashpot assembly, main valve assembly, auxiliary valve, vibration components filtering systems, flyball head assembly/transducer, PMG/SSG, speed adjustment and speed drop mechanisms, restoring mechanisms, governors pumping system, and the accumulator tank components.
VI. Inspect/Measure/Adjust/Record
Wicket gate timing, gate position/limit indicators, pilot valve, unit speed (frequency), restoring elements, vibrator equipment, pump settings, air/oil levels, and compensating dashpot.
VII. Review and apply local Preventive Maintenance Programs for the governor and associated equipment. (Redevelop/edit/make recommendations - local P.M. program for governors, if applicable).
VIII. Identify potential or actual hazards or danger to health or safety while working with these governors.
