Course Overview

In this unit of competency, we cover risks around 'O2' oxygen deficient and excessive environments - ' H2S' Hydrogen Sulphide - where it comes from and what it does to the brain and body, LEL or explosive / flammable gasses and 'CO' Carbon Monoxide. Topics also include multi-gas monitoring, pre-entry atmospheric testing procedures, and safe gas detection practices.

​

Gas test atmospheres training is a thorough and interesting course. In this training, students learn how important it is to carry out gas testing of an atmosphere and are given the chance to bump test and calibrate detectors. We cover a bit of practical and theoretical application for atmospheric monitoring procedures.

​

A valuable rescue course for individuals working in, on, or around confined spaces. This course is ideal if your job requires the use or operation of portable gas detection equipment.

 

Trainees will be able to perform gas testing correctly by gaining the theoretical understanding and practical application, and they will be able to:
 

  • Identify the type of gas, choose and calibrate the gas detection equipment, and set up the atmospheric testing procedures. Recognise possible hazardous atmospheres, put safety protocols in place, and wear PPE (personal protective equipment).

  • Analyse and report readings, perform hazardous gas testing, constant monitoring, and act upon inappropriate readings.

  • Gas testing equipment maintenance, keeping track of tests and results, and equipment before putting it back in its designated place.

Training Method

Gas testing training course typically involves a combination of theoretical learning and practical exercises. The theoretical aspect covers gas properties, types of hazardous gases, gas detection principles, safety regulations, and emergency procedures. Practical training includes hands-on experience with gas tester equipment, simulations of gas release scenarios, calibration exercises, and mock emergency drills.

​​

This combination of theoretical knowledge and practical skills ensures that students can effectively detect, assess, and respond to hazardous gas situations in real-world settings, enhancing workplace safety and regulatory compliance.

Benefits of Taking the Course

Gas tester training is crucial for individuals working in environments where hazardous gases may be present. Here are some benefits of undergoing the training:

 

  • Safety: The primary benefit is ensuring the safety of workers and the workplace.

  • Compliance: Proper training ensures safety compliance with these regulations, avoiding legal issues and penalties.

  • Early Detection: Training enables individuals to identify gases as soon as possible.

  • Equipment Familiarity: Gas testing training often includes instruction on using gas detection equipment effectively.

  • Risk Mitigation: By understanding the properties of different gases, their potential hazards, and safe exposure limits, trained personnel can assess risks more effectively.

  • Emergency Response: In a gas leak or other gas-related emergency, trained individuals can respond quickly and effectively.

  • Environmental Protection: Gas tester training also emphasises the importance of environmental protection.

  • Cost Savings: Investing in this training can save long-term company costs.
