Prepare your learners for real-world success in the fast-growing field of solar energy with Amatrol’s Solar Thermal Troubleshooting – Open-Loop Learning System (950-STOL1). This advanced training solution offers hands-on experience with both draindown and pressurized open-loop systems using real industrial components. Students develop troubleshooting and system operation skills that align with key certifications, including those from the North American Board of Certified Energy Practitioners (NABCEP).
From digital differential controllers and photovoltaic-powered pumps to solar collectors and storage tanks, the 950-STOL1 mirrors the technologies found in today’s solar thermal systems. The included multimedia curriculum provides in-depth instruction using interactive lessons, 3D simulations, and performance-based assessments, ensuring learners gain both conceptual knowledge and technical expertise.
Spanish eLearning Available.
Amatrol’s multimedia eLearning guides learners through solar thermal system operation, freeze protection, draindown configuration, and troubleshooting techniques. The curriculum prepares students for NABCEP certification by reinforcing both foundational concepts and system diagnostics.
Open-loop (or direct) solar thermal systems heat water directly through solar collectors and deliver it for immediate use. Unlike closed-loop systems, which use antifreeze mixtures and heat exchangers, open-loop systems offer higher efficiency but require freeze protection measures in colder climates.
Each system includes a sample copy of the Student Reference Guide sourced from the curriculum. This professionally bound guide compiles all core technical content for continued learning and review after training completion.
