Condition Monitoring
ISO 18436-2 Vibration Analysis CAT-I
The VCAT-I course is the ideal starting place for new vibration analysts, people collecting vibration data, and those who want a better understanding of vibration analysis and CM.
Certification Prerequisite: prior experience is not required for attending the training course or taking the
examination, but 6 months of relevant experience is required for ISO certification.
ISO 18436-2 Vibration Analysis CAT-II
The VCAT-II course is intended for people who have mastered the basics but who need to be able to take good data and decide how the data collector should be set up, analyse a range of fault conditions, and understand balancing & alignment.
Certification Prerequisite: No experience is required for the training course or the exam, (a CAT-I is not required), but 18 months of relevant work experience is required for ISO certification.
ISO 18436-2 Vibration Analysis CAT-III
The VCAT-III course is for people who are confident with spectrum analysis but who wish to push on and learn more about signal processing, time waveform and phase analysis, cross-channel testing, machine dynamics, and fault correction.
Certification Prerequisite: No experience is required for the training course or exam, but certification requires 36 months relevant work experience and VCAT-II certification, or a minimum of 60 months experience in lieu of CAT-II certification.
ISO 18436-7 Infrared Thermography CAT-I
The IRTCAT-I course is intended for those operating thermal imaging cameras under different conditions and for various purposes. You will be able to do IR inspections and reporting.
Certification Prerequisite: No experience is required for the training course or exam, but 6 months of relevant experience and passing an online colour test is required for ISO certification.
ISO 18436-8 Ultrasound CAT-I
The UCAT-I course is intended for those seeking to advance their knowledge in
airborne/structure borne ultrasound inspection on rotating, static and electrical equipment.
Certification Prerequisite: No experience is required for the training course or exam, but 6 months of relevant experience plus passing a hearing test is required for ISO certification.
ISO 18436-4 Field Lubrication Analysis
On this course students learn about the science of machinery lubrication, the properties of lubricants, selecting the right lubricant, monitoring lubricant health, and more. With the assistance of the interactive simulations and 3D animations students will understand the ‘science’ of field lubrication and gain knowledge and confidence to be successful as a field lubrication practitioner.
