Hands-on Trainers for Process Operations and Control
Realistic, Practical Training
The Hands-on Operations Training (HOT) units provide realistic, practical training for operators in all types of process facilities. The HOT units use industrial equipment, piping and instrumentation to create a safe and realistic environment where your students will master the critical competencies required to safely operate process equipment.
Purpose built to support Process Technology (PTEC) and Basic Operator Training (BOT) requirements, Polaris supplies each unit with an operating manuals, procedures, and training exercises to support structured learning of common operations tasks. Additional training aids to support advanced training are also available.
KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS, EXPERIENCE:
Process startup/shutdown and emergency procedures
Equipment and process troubleshooting
Conducting effective rounds
Shift Handover
Equipment lineup
Placing equipment in service/taking equipment out of service
Sampling
Effective communications and team work
Each unit is designed and manufactured to ASME standards using state-of the-art industrial components including a fully functional Emerson Delta V DCS. The durable design ensures the system will provide reliable service in either indoor or outdoor environments.

CURRICULUM AND TRAINING AIDS
POLARIS VIRTUAL FIELD OPERATOR
The Polaris HOT units come with comprehensive training materials including:
Process description
Process control description
Operating procedures and guidelines
Round sheets
Exercises and scenarios
Additional training aids are available to support the HOT models
Dynamic process simulation with scenarios
Virtual field operator
3D process equipment animations
SYSTRAN PROCESS ANIMATIONS
Using the simulator and virtual field operator, students familiarize themselves with the operation of hot unit and practice procedures in a computer lab, before working on the HOT unit. Using the simulator maximizes the hands-on time when students are assigned to work on the Hands-On Training unit.
