SUMMARY:Virtual Valve Forum plus Valve Basics
DESCRIPTION:2020 VIRTUAL VALVE FORUM plus VALVE BASICS \nINCLUDES SEVEN LESSONS FROM OUR VALVES 101 COURSE PLUS VIDEO DEMOS! \nFor nearly a dozen years\, VMA has provided its Valve Basics course to thousands of people who are connected to or working in the valve industry and eager to enhance their knowledge: end users\, specifiers\, manufacturers\, distributors\, suppliers and even engineering students via scholarships! \nThis November – in conjunction with the Virtual Valve Forum – VMA presents Virtual Valves 101. Our experienced presenters cover the major valve types\, including linear\, check\, quarter-turn and pressure-relief\, plus actuation basics. In early 2021\, Virtual Valves 201 will be offered for those who want to take the next step in learning about these critical flow control products\, including actuators\, controls\, automation and more. All virtual presentations will include videos to show how products work and to help attendees better understand the concepts being discussed. \nWHO SHOULD ATTEND\nThis course was created specifically for newcomers to the industry so it is ideally suited for recent graduates and engineers in the early stages of their careers. In addition\, those who understand the basics of mechanical valves can expand their knowledge by attending the electric portion of the program. Both courses can be taken\, or attendees can choose to attend one or another. \nAttendees typically include: \n\nA variety of professionals employed at plants and facilities that use or work with valves\, actuators and controls\nMore experienced professionals with knowledge of one specific product type but in need of an overview of the entire spectrum of valves\, actuators and controls.\nNew employees at valve\, actuator and control companies\nPersonnel from EPC or AEC firms who are involved with specifying valves\nDistributors and manufacturers’ reps who sell these products\nCompanies that provide supplies and services to the industry\nAnd anyone who could use a refresher course on valves\, actuators and controls!\n\nThe Valve Basics course has been well-received by upper-level mechanical engineering students who have attended previous seminars. Their participation is made possible by scholarships from association members and others interested in supporting valve training for the next generation. \nSPONSORSHIP INFORMATION\nVMA is developing a sponsorship program so attendees will still be able to learn about new products and services from industry suppliers. This will provide an excellent opportunity for suppliers to “meet” people from across the industry. Because many of our attendees are in the early phases of their careers\, they are typically eager to learn about your products and services! \nQUESTIONS\nPlease contact Abby Brown\, VMA education & training coordinator\, or Judy Tibbs\, VMA director of education.

SUMMARY:Avoid the Pitfalls of Oversizing Booster Systems and Drawdown Tanks.
DESCRIPTION:One of the more difficult aspects of planning and designing plumbing systems is the sizing of booster packages. The sizing process for any mechanical system can be challenging\, but the industry literature on booster sizing offers no universally accepted approach or standard; whilst literature on sizing hydropneumatics (expansion) tanks are often focused on closed-loop systems. Issues associated with under-sizing is well documented and felt almost immediately. But over-sizing presents its own set of issues\, including excessive consumption of energy and water\, pre-mature equipment wear\, exacerbation of leaks\, and contamination due to long term stagnation. Join us Wednesday\, November 11 @ 1:30 PM for a crash course on how to right-size and select booster packages and drawdown tanks. This session will be of interest to design engineers\, contractors\, and building developers. PDH certificates are available on request. \nRegister Here!

SUMMARY:Motor Grounding
DESCRIPTION:AC motors have been used with Variable Frequency Drives for many years and with great success. Utilizing a VFD in lieu of a traditional starter or even soft starter reduces in rush currents\, prevents mechanical stresses on the driven equipment and infrastructure and also may result in great energy savings. When the motor is powered by this type of control\, consideration should be taken to ensure a good installation by knowing the concerns of utilizing this type of control and reviewing the required grounding requirements\, grounding products and solutions. \nAttendees will leave with the ability to: \nIdentify the most common motor failures\nUnderstand the effects of common mode voltage as related to motor bearings\nIdentify bearing damage which may be applicable to common mode voltage\nEnsure proper motor grounding requirements\nTo be aware of motor shaft grounding devices \nPresenter: Larry Stanley | Regional Business Development Manager\, Water

SUMMARY:Texas Water™ 2021 - Virtual
DESCRIPTION:What can you expect at Texas Water™ 2021 – Virtual? \nTechnical Program: \n\nTexas Water™ has received commitments from more than 130 presenters to provide them with recorded versions of their rigorously peer-reviewed technical sessions.\nThe sessions will be made available “on demand” once they are posted\, allowing for convenient viewing at any time. You will not have to choose between attending different sessions as you would at an in-person conference. Better yet\, all the sessions will remain posted for multiple months after the conference\, to provide for maximum viewing flexibility.\nTexas Water™ is requesting operator training credit from the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality for most of the online sessions. This is an excellent way to comply with any license training requirements in a safe\, convenient setting\, all without the cost and hassle of travel. Last year’s Texas Water attendees could earn up to 60 hours of operator credit and are expecting similar opportunities this year. You’ll also be able to earn conference operator hours from March 29 through June 25. Professional Engineers can also obtain their self-reported professional development hours\, including the requisite one hour of ethics training.\nTexas Water™ will also have their exceptional Poster Presentations to complement the technical sessions.\n\nMany of the Texas Water special events will still be held virtually\, such as: \n\nthe Opening Session/Keynote Address\nthe Women of Texas Water session\nthe Young Professionals recognition event\nthe Engineering Ethics Course\nthe Water for People Silent Auction\nDodson’s Drive Virtual Fun Run\nCurtis Smalley Environmental Event\n\nAnd a Virtual Exhibit Hall\, which will give you the opportunity to (virtually) visit the wonderful vendors that have continued their support of the conference.
