Job Title
Electronic Industrial Control Mechanic/PD14043A
Duties
Knowledge of EIC Mechanics and performing work on highly complex systems of electronic sensing and control.
Performs a variety of work involved in the installation, maintenance, troubleshooting, repair, and calibration of electronic controls and indicating and recording systems used on industrial machinery or in heating and air conditioning (HVAC), Automated Building System (ABS) which use special purpose, dedicated computers to store operating parameters and initiate adjustments.
Knowledge of logic circuits, electronic amplification, control circuits, and complex electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, and/or pneumatic systems.
Knowledge of industrial or environmental control processes to be accomplished by the equipment on which they work, to properly test and coordinate various portions of the system.
Knowledge of characteristic voltage, current, and signal shape of the input and output of a wide variety of microprocessors, integrated and discrete solid-state circuits, and high-power vacuum tube or transistor applications to recognize indications of improper operation, and differentiate them from temporary anomalies introduced by the testing itself.
Troubleshoot using Boolean algebra to construct truth tables and logic equations for analysis of logic circuits.
Responsible for making tests and alignments to ensure the completed equipment is aligned and functioning properly.
Knowledge of characteristic voltage, current, and signal shape of the input and output of a wide variety of microprocessors, integrated and discrete solid-state circuits, and high-power vacuum tube or transistors.
Ability to use the usual hand tools of the electronics trade, such as drills, chassis punches, wrenches, soldering irons, and micro soldering, needed to remove and replace circuit parts where accurate positioning, appearance, mechanical strength, and electrical integrity are important.
Knowledge of complex tools including multiple axis numerically controlled (NC) machine tools with continuous path or contouring control capability, such as machining centers and omnia mills.
Interprets engineering drawings that combine electrical and electronic schematics, logic diagrams, and mechanical drawings to trace signal flow throughout the system while troubleshooting malfunctions of complex systems.
Knowledge of data conversion and processing units.
Knowledge of electrical and electronic block diagrams, wiring diagrams, and schematics to understand the construction and operation of the industrial controls and troubleshoot malfunctions.
Knowledge of electronic theory and circuits and basic logic circuits to power, timing, and motion controls, indicating and counting mechanisms, and similar devices to suggest greater efficiency.
Responsible for troubleshooting, repair, modification, design, and calibration of complex electronic systems.
Work Schedule: Monday - Friday, 8:00am - 4:30pm
Physical Requirements: Work requires good coordination and good physical and mental health. At times, the incumbent must remain working in cramped or awkward positions. Occasionally, the incumbent must push or lift heavy pieces of equipment weighing up to 100 pounds and must lift and push items weighing up to 50 pounds. Incumbent must have good vision and must not be color blind to allow for proper interpretation of important electronic color codes and manual dexterity for accomplishing delicate work on miniaturized circuitry. The incumbent is required to climb ladders, do overhead work, and observe normal and some special safety precautions. The incumbent is in daily contact with electrical safety hazards resulting from work with voltage found in communications equipment, and power supplies, and is frequently exposed to special mechanical system safety hazards in working with motor-driven systems.
