Instruction is designed so technical personnel responsible for the hands- on maintenance of the LM6000 will benefit most from this training. Scope of training focuses on selected Level 2 procedures identified in the applicable Operation and Maintenance manual.

This course is designed to enhance GE F-class gas turbine-generator operation skills. The course provides a detailed overview of F-class turbine operating sequences and control and protection functions. The course builds upon student's operational skills. Develops a background in gas turbine-generator operation that enables participants to properly analyze operating problems and take the necessary corrective action.

This course will focus on the gas turbine and generator control and protection and does not include discussions on auxiliary support systems. Please refer to the Agenda noted below.

Participants may wish to bring their unit specific "Control Specification" with them to facilitate correlating classroom discussions with specific unit parameters.

The course is held at the GE Energy Learning Center in Niskayuna (Schenectady), NY USA. This location has turbine equipment available to view that enhances the learning experience beyond the classroom lectures and discussions.

This LM6000 package course is designed to cover topics from Basic Gas turbine theory to detailed turbine operation to ensure consistent, trouble-free performance from the engine and its associated equipment. This course develops a background in gas turbine operation that enables participants to analyze operating problems properly and take the necessary corrective action.

We emphasize the operator's responsibilities with regard to auxiliary systems, operational data taking and evaluation. Operators are instructed in how to interpret fault annunciation and how to determine if the annunciated fault can be remedied by operator action or by the assistance of instrumentation and/or maintenance personnel. The course focuses on package familiarization, starting, loading and specific operator checks of the various turbine support and auxiliary systems to ensure safe and reliable operation of the gas turbine.

Participants may with to bring their unit "specific Worksheets", and F&ID's with them to facilitate correlating classroom discussion with specific unit parameters.

The course consists of classroom lectures and a visit to the package manufacturing and assembly plant at our facility in Houston, Texas.

This course offers instruction on the hardware and software of the controller equipment. The course material and exercises provide training on the software tools that are used to troubleshoot alarms, edit the sequencing, configure the Inputs and outputs (both hardwired and networked), and calibrate Servo-Actuated Valve LVDT's and other devices. Additional class work includes information on the Cimplicity operator interface (HMI). Lectures and hands-on exercises develop a thorough understanding of ToolboxST and other software tools.

This course provides training on the essential elements of the Mk VI turbine control system. The course will include instruction on the hardware and software components of the Mk VI control system and its interface system (HMI). Alarm troubleshooting and LVDT calibration will be central topics of the program. Additionally, practical exercises on Mk VI equipment will reinforce the daily lecture material.
