ICM Controls
Class Overview:
This course will provide insight on the theory behind head pressure controls, motor hard start kits, and motor protection controls. It will include information regarding the purpose/function of each type of control, applications for each, a wiring overview, troubleshooting tips, as well as a description of ICM products that fit each application.
