TRAINING

Acumen eSolutions in conjunction with Ultra-Tek can provide a whole range of Ultrasound trainig.

 

Ultra-Tek prides itself on its world class products but without quality training the potential returns may never be achieved, or as a minimum, have a greatly extended return on investment.

​

We therefore have compiled some key training offerings to enable our products and technology so that you get the results from your Ultrasound program right from the start.

​

These are all delivered onsite at the clients' facility.

​

1. UE Systems Product & Software Orientations Training (1 Day)

This one day course is designed as the minimum start-up package for new clients.

It will make users conversant with the many features of their Ultraprobe Instrument and also of the Data Management Software (DMS) and Spectralyzer diagnostic software platforms.

It is delivered in a classroom style environment with a high level of hands-on practical work to embed the learnings.

​

Note: The Spectralyzer product is best suited for Ultraprobe UP10000 and Ultraprobe UP15000 Touch users

​

2. UE Systems Ultrasound Overview & Applications Training (1 Day)

For clients that are already comfortable with the use of their Ultraprobe and software, this one day course is specifically focuses on the Technology and Applications of Ultrasound.

It will help users understand how ultrasound works, detail the many inspection techniques and contains plenty of case histories on applications from the five main focus areas:

1 Electrical Inspection

2 Leak Detection

3 Valve Inspection
4 Steam Trap Inspection
5 Bearing Inspection

It also contains a section on Condition Based Lubrication using Ultrasound to optimise your lubrication program and usage hence generating immediate returns to the program.This course is a 50:50 split between the traditional classroom style environment with a high level of hands-on practical work out in the plant to embed the learnings.

5. UE Systems Level I, II & III Ultrasound Certification Training (5 day courses)

Airborne Ultrasound is a nondestructive test. The effectiveness of airborne ultrasonic tests depends upon the capabilities of the personnel who are responsible for, and perform inspections.

Certification is a written documentation of qualification. Certification is evidence that personnel performing airborne ultrasound possess knowledge and understanding of the test method and also gives the inspector the confidence needed to perform the inspection to the highest level of success.

In order to meet the requirements of the American Society for Nondestructive Testing (ASNT) Written Practice, SNT-TC-1A, specific topics must be addressed in the classroom training. The recommended hours of instruction is 32 hours for Level I and 32 hours for Level II. Requirements for Level I, II, and III Certification In order to achieve an official certification, classroom training meeting the requirements of SNT-TC-1A must be completed along with successfully passing the General, Specific and Practical examinations with a score of 80% or better.

​

Documentation of education or experience must be maintained annually. Hearing acuity must meet the minimum requirement of one ear of less than 25 dBHL at 500 Hz to 4 kHz (with or without aid.) Hearing acuity examinations must be documented annually.

 

The Level II Training is generally an advanced version of Level I.

This 32 hour course is designed to meet the intent of SNT-TC-1A. Students successfully completing this course are familiar with the scope and limitations of Airborne/Structure Borne Ultrasonic Inspection, are able to set up and calibrate equipment, interpret and evaluate results with respect to applicable codes, standards, and specifications, and organize and report inspection results. Course content consists of advanced theory, data collection, inspection techniques, and reporting. A General, Specific, and Practical test is given at the end of the course.​
