To get a better understanding of how gas detectors function, we will investigate the different types of combustible gas sensors for portable instruments, and identify the flammable range of common gases you may encounter. You will learn about various types of gas detection equipment (manufacturers - BW Technologies, Honeywell, Rae, Draeger, Gastec, MeshGuard, MSA). Meets requirements as outlined in IRP 18 and IRP 7 for wellsite supervisor for gas detection training.

During this course we will use a variety of interactive learning activities to reinforce the content. These learning activities are also used to help you understand how to perform important procedures such as a bump test, sampling techniques, calibration, etc.

At the conclusion of the course you will write a multiple-choice final exam. You must obtain a passing grade of 80% to receive your certificate for this course.

Course can take anywhere from 90 minutes to 4 hours to complete. The Final exam includes 20 questions from a question bank and allows for 2 attempts. If you have an unsuccessful attempt feel free to review the content before proceeding to the last attempt. Certification is only acquired with a passing mark of 80%.

Please note that you have 90 days to complete your course from the purchase date.
