The course aims at consolidating the participants’ competence in the field of small to medium borehole pumping system. It focuses on a comprehensive design concept that allows to optimisation sustainability and energy consumption, being renewable or not.
It covers the full project extent, from assessment, contractor supervision, work commissioning and training operators for operation and maintenance.
After the training participants will be able to:
- To master the basics of hydraulics and electricity necessary for the design
- To collect, analyse and use data to identify suitable solutions for water supply.
- To use the collected data to optimize the pumping system.
- To size the pump, pipe, cables, genset, PV (solar panels) and control panel.
- To give necessary technical specifications for all the required material and evaluate offers.
- To supervise important points during the installation, what to check during commissioning and ensure that sufficient training on O&M is given.
