What does a Fluid Flow Trainer actually do?
Power plant operator training has traditionally consisted of initial classroom study, followed by practical hands-on training in the field - roughly akin to giving a new driver a learner's permit and then turning him or her loose in big-city rush hour.
The clear PVC Fluid Flow Trainer allows students to see the results of changes in the system in real time, as well as providing a safe, controlled environment in which to learn.
This dynamic mock-up will provide personnel the opportunity to apply training received in the classroom immediately in a controlled lab setting. Practical exercises on real system components will enhance and accelerate the learning process.
Comments from current Flow Trainer users:
"The Flow Trainer has many practical uses, for example: Human Performance Tools, tag out / lockout, procedure use, etc."
T.F., NLO, Supervising Instructor
"As a mechanical instructor, the clear piping allows us to teach in a manner not previously available. The benefits of the flow trainer apply not only to experienced individuals, but new apprentices as well. It is also instrumental for safety training of new and current employees. "
T. McNabb, Mechanical Training Coordinator, KCP&L
"The Flow Trainer machine is multifaceted and can be used not only for operations, but in multiple disciplines such as engineering, maintenance, etc."
