Course Overview

The Valve Fundamentals (MMS-105) course by Rockwell Automation is designed for mechanical technicians seeking to build a strong foundation in industrial valve systems. This instructor-led training covers essential topics such as valve construction, types of valves and actuators, valve markings, and the function and setup of valve positioners. While no specific certification exam is directly tied to MMS-105, it serves as a critical prerequisite for advanced training like the Valve Repair (MMS-210) course and supports broader competency in industrial maintenance. With over 80% of manufacturing facilities relying on pneumatic and hydraulic control systems, expertise in valve operation is in high demand across industries such as oil and gas, chemical processing, and power generation.

Students engage with real-world industrial components and systems throughout the Valve Fundamentals (MMS-105) program, using Rockwell Automation’s official lab equipment and training platforms. The hands-on lab component includes practical exercises in setting up pneumatic actuators, configuring valve positioners, and evaluating valve performance under simulated process conditions. Learners work directly with globe valves, ball valves, butterfly valves, and diaphragm actuators, gaining experience in diagnosing common issues such as hysteresis, stiction, and improper bench setting. One key integrated practice involves calibrating a positioner to ensure accurate valve stroke response, mirroring tasks performed in actual plant environments to maintain process control integrity.

By completing the Valve Fundamentals (MMS-105) course from Rockwell Automation, technicians enhance their qualifications for roles in maintenance, operations, and system troubleshooting, where skilled craft workers earn median salaries of $75,000–$95,000 annually in North America. This training builds the foundational knowledge needed for advanced certifications and specialized roles in process control. Koenig Solutions delivers this official curriculum with Guaranteed-to-Run scheduling, 1-on-1 instructor support, and access to Rockwell Automation’s authorized courseware, ensuring a high-impact learning experience. Graduates are well-prepared to advance into roles requiring precision maintenance and to pursue further credentials in industrial automation.
