• Diagnose function and test equipment on return to service
• Be able to handle a range of digital information, technology and equipment to support work related tasks and to communicate information.
TMI01 - Pressure measurement and control systems - Range check a pressure gauge, change settings on a pressure switch, recalibrate a SMART pressure transmitter and record Instrument Test Records (ITR’s)
• TMI02 - Level measurement and control systems - Reconfigure, calibrate and function check a displacement type level transmitter and a SMART type level transmitter and record ITRs
• TMI04 - Temperature measurement and control systems - Commission a temperature detector (RTD or thermocouple) and a SMART temperature transmitter including a range change by a 20% increase or decrease of its current settings, recalibration and full loop check from heat source to transmitter output, record ITRs.
• TMI14 - Flow measurement and control systems - Recommission a differential pressure flow transmitter into a fully operational condition, and calibration check the transmitter and record ITRs
• TMI17 - Maintain, calibrate and commission a process control valve - Remove a process control valve positioner and actuator, replace valve stem gland packing, reassemble and body pressure test. Set up and stroke test to operate open/closed on a 4–20 mA control signal, complete full loop calibration and record ITRs
• TSBT02 - Disassemble and reinstall SBT assemblies - Identify faults and defects with SBT assemblies, disassemble SBT assemblies, rectify faults and defects and reinstall SBT assemblies by selecting and using the correct materials, tools, fittings, clamps and supports in accordance with P&ID and specification sheet
