Pneumatic System Troubleshooting
The Pneumatic System Troubleshooting Learning System (950-PT1) from Amatrol delivers unmatched, real-world pneumatic troubleshooting training for education and industry programs. Designed to replicate an electro-pneumatic machine found on the factory floor, this hands-on learning station allows learners to diagnose and correct faults under realistic operating conditions.
At the core of the system is FaultPro®, Amatrol’s exclusive computer-based fault insertion system. FaultPro enables instructors to safely insert up to 30 faults across pneumatic, mechanical, and electrical components, creating authentic troubleshooting scenarios that mirror what technicians encounter in the field.
Spanish eLearning Available.
The 950-PT1 operates under actual load conditions, exposing learners to inertial, friction, compression, and static loads. Each circuit panel replicates a common industrial application, ensuring learners develop practical diagnostic skills that directly transfer to the workplace.
A PLC-controlled system allows instructors to change sequences and operating conditions, presenting learners with a wide range of troubleshooting challenges—from basic system faults to advanced performance issues.
The system includes a comprehensive pneumatic troubleshooting curriculum that builds a strong foundation in system diagnostics, maintenance, and installation. Content is delivered through interactive eLearning modules designed to reinforce hands-on activities.
- In-circuit pneumatic component testing
- Air preparation troubleshooting
- Troubleshooting pneumatic cylinders
- Air-over-oil system operation
- Motor and rotary actuator troubleshooting
- Directional control and flow control valve diagnostics
- Vacuum systems and vacuum switch operation
- Machine performance fault analysis
The curriculum is also available as a searchable eBook, allowing learners to quickly locate topics, zoom in on diagrams, and review concepts as needed.
FaultPro® automatically inserts and tracks faults throughout the pneumatic system, electrical circuits, and mechanical loads. Learners must use systematic troubleshooting techniques to identify and correct issues, just as they would on the job.
The software tracks learner progress and ensures faults are inserted safely, protecting both users and equipment while supporting self-paced, mastery-based learning.
The 950-PT1 also includes a virtual multimedia trainer that mirrors the physical system in exceptional detail. Learners perform the same troubleshooting tasks in a virtual environment, making it ideal for blended learning, remote instruction, or pre-lab preparation.
Amatrol eLearning includes a powerful, easy-to-use LMS that enables instructors to build custom courses, monitor participation, track progress, and assess learner knowledge before and after instruction.
Learners can move through coursework at their own pace, pause and resume lessons, and revisit topics to reinforce understanding—supporting both classroom and independent study.
