Parker 4-Star Open Loop Pump & Controls Course
The 4-Star Industrial Hydraulic Systems and Controls Training Program focuses on the total hydraulic system design and moves beyond common product training. With a combination of laboratory and lecture, you will learn how to proceed from system concept to meet accuracy, speed and force requirements. This program has been specifically organized to serve the needs of the hydraulic systems engineer who must design industrial machinery that operates faster, more smoothly, more reliably, without shocks and vibrations, and must reduce production costs while making products that are better.

The 4-Star Industrial Hydraulic Systems and Controls Training Program courses are currently available only to Parker Team Members and Parker Hydraulic Technology Center Distributor Personnel.  If you are not Parker or HTC Distributor Personnel, you can fill out the "Interested in Future Classes" form at the bottom and we will let you know if we will be opening up the courses to others.

4S Open Loop Pump & Controls (OLPC)
Parker Hannifin’s 4S Open Loop Pump & Controls Course provides a practical overview of variable and fixed displacement pumps, focusing on proper installation, control configuration, troubleshooting, and efficiency optimization. Participants will gain hands-on experience with several labs introduced to cover various control options and reinforce topics covered in the lectures.
