Course Overview
The Positive Displacement Pumps (MMS-205) course by Rockwell Automation is designed for mechanical technicians responsible for the operation, maintenance, and repair of industrial pumping systems. This two-day instructor-led training covers core concepts including pump laws, terminology, component identification, and performance factors specific to reciprocating, piston, rotary, and special-purpose positive displacement pumps. Participants prepare for real-world troubleshooting and maintenance challenges aligned with industry standards, supporting pathways to advanced craft certifications. With over 70% of manufacturing facilities relying on positive displacement pumps for precise fluid control, this skill set is critical across oil and gas, chemical processing, and food and beverage industries. The course serves roles such as maintenance mechanic, plant engineer, and reliability technician.
Students engage directly with a range of pump types—including screw, diaphragm, lobe, vane, and liquid ring pumps—through structured hands-on labs using actual industrial equipment. The lab environment emphasizes safe disassembly, inspection, maintenance, and reassembly procedures guided by manufacturer manuals. A key integrated practice involves diagnosing wear areas, identifying failed components, and restoring pump functionality to operational specifications, simulating real maintenance scenarios in production environments. Using official Rockwell Automation lab guides and student manuals, learners apply theoretical knowledge to practical tasks such as aligning shafts, replacing seals, and verifying relief valve operation to prevent overpressure hazards.
While MMS-205 does not map to a formal certification exam, it builds foundational competencies recognized under Rockwell Automation’s Craft Skills training framework, which is highly regarded in industrial automation sectors. Graduates report improved job readiness and career advancement, with certified maintenance technicians earning median salaries of $68,000–$85,000 annually depending on industry and location.
