Gas Equipment Inspectors Courses
Murex Welding Products have revised and reformatted the Accredited Inspectors training courses. These courses are designed to qualify persons to conduct full safety checks on individual oxy-fuel gas welding systems. Following satisfactory completion of the course examination a City and Guilds Certificate is awarded to successful candidates.
WHAT
IS INVOLVED?
The training course is of 2 days duration with
an overnight residential stay. The first part of the course involves theoretical
instruction on oxy-fuel gas safety, the properties of gases, safe use
and operation of systems. A proportion of the instruction is devoted to
product design. The training is liberally interspersed with participative
exercises illustrating the likely causes of risk.
The second day of the course is entirely devoted to practical training.
In this "hands on" session the candidates are taught how to
fully test an oxy-fuel gas station and pass it off for safe use. Instruction
is also given on risk assessment of stations in accordance with current
legal requirements.
COURSE MATERIAL
Each candidate will receive a detailed test
manual containing easy to follow steps in the process. The manual covers
inspection of regulators, hoses, safety devises and blowpipes and the
relevant tests of integrity. Further, each candidate receives his own
comprehensive tool kit to carry out the tests and inspection recording
documentation.
WHO
SHOULD ATTEND?
Any person responsible for the practical safety
aspects of oxy-fuel gas systems will benefit from the course. Such persons
as safety officers, maintenance staff, supervisors or technical college
and school lecturers would benefit.
The
two day qualification courses are conducted at our Waltham Cross premises.
Residential accommodation is provided at a local hotel and lunch and dinner
are included in the cost. The overall cost of the course is £460
+VAT to cover tutition, training material, toolkit and accommodation.
