Overview
Hydraulic technology is a widely used technology that uses chemistry, engineering, applied science and other sciences to manufacture products and processes. It is used in many aspects of life from producing kitchen dishwashers, to mechanical engineering, which is why it is vital to be well versed with the hydraulic principles to have a successful career in mechanical engineering, construction, automotive and aerospace engineering. This Diploma in Hydraulic Principles at QLS Level 4 has been developed exactly for this purpose and will get you upto speed with hydraulic principles in no time.
This course will give you insights into the Archimedes theory and the hydraulic principles to brief you on how the hydraulic technology works. You will get to learn about topics such as atmospheric pressure, geometric arguments, vacuum and hydrostatic paradox, after which this course will explore backflows and actual backflows to understand why it happens. This course is also focused on enlightening you about the NPSH (Net Positive Suction Head) and how to calculate it for a piping system.
A pump is the heart of a hydraulic system that converts mechanical energy to hydraulic energy. Therefore, this course has dedicated a few modules that will tutor you on the pump operation, various types of pumps and pump performance and curves. This course will also provide you with the opportunity to understand about devices such as coupling and mechanical seals that are essential in a hydraulic technology.

After booking the course, I received clear instructions on how to proceed and enroll with the course. I gained access to the course almost immediately thereafter, and have since been able to work at my own pace.
Impressive
I was impressed with the level of service provided by South London. Every person I dealt with was professional and knowledgeable, and my concerns were addressed immediately and solutions were found.
Great learning experience
My time at SLC was well spent. I had a great time learning about hydraulic principles. I had some background knowledge, but this course was extensive and covered the fundamentals which have helped me apply my skills in my work.
Great course
I have taken courses with various providers in the past, but without much success. The content of the course was extensive and helped me enhance my knowledge. I’m glad to have found SLC, and will definitely be using them again sometime in the future.
