Closed Water Systems Training Course

World-class closed systems training delivered by leading experts.
WTS 0060 “Closed Water Systems – Heating & Cooling Water Circuits” is an intensive classroom based closed systems training course developed by the process water specialists at WTS.
The course is designed for facilities managers, water treatment service engineers, maintenance and engineering contractors, plant operators, and those with responsibility for the installation, pre-commissioning, maintenance and on-going management of commercial and industrial closed systems used in heating, chilled and cooling water installations.
What is closed water systems training?
Closed water systems training is a specialised professional development programme designed to equip water treatment engineers, facilities managers, maintenance staff, and contractors with the knowledge and skills needed to manage and maintain water systems that operate in a closed-loop configuration. In these systems, water is recirculated rather than being constantly replaced by fresh water. It helps prevent premature system failure and costly repairs by ensuring that water treatment and management practices are both effective and compliant with industry standards.
Overview of our closed systems course
WTS 0060 provides a review of typical closed water systems including low pressure hot water (LPHW) and low temperature hot water (LTHW) systems, medium pressure hot water (MPHW) and medium temperature hot water (MTHW) systems, chilled water systems, closed loops, condenser water (closed) systems, and Versatemp loop – circuit systems. Candidates taking this course will gain an understanding of the issues that affect the performance of closed water systems including metallic corrosion, fouling, bio-fouling and scale, and how best to deal with them.
Additionally, the course also covers a number of practical workshops, including how to conduct basic fault-finding investigations and the development of cost effective closed system water treatment solutions.

Who is this closed water systems training for?
Typical candidates for WTS 0060 will be facilities managers, water treatment service engineers, maintenance and engineering contractors, plant operators and those with responsibility for the installation, pre-commissioning and maintenance of commercial and industrial closed water systems used in heating, chilled and cooling water installations.
What will you learn about closed systems?
WTS 0060 will give candidates an awareness of the operation of closed water systems including closed heating, chilled and cooling systems.
Candidates will gain a thorough understanding of the problems associated with scale, corrosion, bio-fouling and suspended solids in closed circuit water systems. They will also understand the issues associated with microbiological proliferation and fouling.
Candidates will develop the skills to design and implement cost effective water pre-treatment and treatment programmes for closed systems.
Candidates will also develop the skills to perform basic water quality analysis tests and learn how to interpret the results so as to effectively monitor, control and manage closed system heating and cooling circuits.
Additionally, candidates will develop the skills to conduct basic fault-finding and prepare cost effective solutions to common problems affecting closed water systems.

Are there pre-qualification requirements?
WTS 0060 “Closed Water Systems – Heating & Cooling Water Circuits” is an intensive course designed for facilities managers, water treatment engineers, maintenance and engineering contractors, and those with responsibility for the operation and maintenance of commercial and industrial closed water systems.
Candidates must have successfully completed our course WTS 0010 “Basic Chemistry of Water & Analysis”.
Prior knowledge and experience of closed water systems and issues associated with water treatment would also be of benefit. We typically recommend a minimum of 6 months practical in-field experience before starting this course. However, if you do not have this please speak with one of our training team.
Water treatment training certificate
On successful completion candidates will receive a certificate of attainment issued by Water Treatment Services for the course “Closed Water Systems – Heating & Cooling Water Circuits” – WTS 0060.
This certificate should be retained as evidence of formal training in this subject.
How long is the course?
The duration of this course is one day. Training materials, lunch and refreshments are all included.
