Online courses
Online training courses developed by the Packings Division.
A basic packings training course has been developed and implemented in a Learning Management System. The course provides a new way for packing users to learn about the application, construction, materials and installation of compression packings for optimum performance in pumps and valves.
A second course providing basic training on troubleshooting packing application problems has also been added. Further training modules will be developed in the future.
An Introduction to Compression Packing
Developed by the ESA Packings Division, this training course helps engineers, technicians and users of packings to understand what packings are and how and when they can be used successfully. It covers application and installation information as well as packing materials and construction.
Compression Packings – Troubleshooting
Developed by the ESA Packings Division, this training course covers the area of problems in packing performance and how to overcome them and complements the earlier ‘Introduction to Compression Packing’ course. Users of packings and those responsible for selecting, fitting and replacing packings will learn the various types of packing failures, their causes and how to avoid them.
