Industrial
Ammonia Refrigeration Operator Refresher
back
to top
This three day, 24 hour lab intensive class was developed
at the request of our clients and is based on Operator
I an Operator II material. With a focus on system operating
efficiency, this course will provide a hands-on review
of refrigeration fundamentals as they apply to daily
system operation and should serve as a solid foundation
for the non-site specific portion of the OSHA/EPA required
Operator Refresher Training.
PSM
/ RMP for the Ammonia Operator
back
to top
This five day seminar is designed to provide the participant
with background information and practical experience
in maintaining an existing Process Safety Management
/ Risk Management Plan program. While the course is
not intended as a tutorial on development of these programs,
participants will attain a heightened awareness of regulatory
requirements and compliance practices which should prove
beneficial to anyone involved in creating or maintaining
these programs. The areas listed will serve as a general
outline of subject matter covered and all areas listed
will be discussed, however participants will have input
on the final content of the course and will have time
for research into specific areas other than those listed.
Maintenance
and Troubleshooting for the NH3 Operator
back
to top
This hands-on Laboratory based class is designed to
provide those with ammonia refrigeration system maintenance
and repair responsibilities with the knowledge and skills
required to perform routine maintenance and repairs
on their systems.
Some
of the topics covered include:
- Component
Alignment
- Vibration
Analysis
- Component
Rebuild & Repair
- Shaft
Seal Replacement

Cameo
/ Marplot for PSM / RMP Compliance
back
to top
Covers the application and use of a system of computer
software applications developed for use by chemical
emergency planners provided by the E.P.A. The components
covered in this three day class are:
- CAMEO
(Computer Aided Management of Emergency Operations)
is a chemical database and information module.
- MARPLOT
(Mapping Applications for Response and Planning of
Local Operational Tasks) is a mapping application
for use in plotting information on area maps.
- ALOHA
(Areal Locations of Hazardous Atmospheres) is an air
dispersion model that allows the user to estimate
the characteristics of a chemical release.
Class
objectives will include the utilization of these computer
tools to aid in PSM/RMP compliance. (Note: This course
is not on the current schedule but may be scheduled upon
request with sufficient enrollment. Call Patti Kravitz
at (770) 531-4500 for more information.)
