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
  • Ammonia Sensor Calibration
  • Slide Valve Calibration
  • General System Diagnostics
  • Troubleshooting

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.)

24 Hour HazMat Technician Certification
back to top
This class is designed to meet the non site-specific Technician level training requirements of OSHA 29 CFR 1910.120(q). The class will conclude with a simulated HAZMAT response drill.

Some of the topics covered include:
  • PPE Selection and Application
  • Techniques for Monitoring
  • Techniques for Advanced Confinement and Containment
