Description

A hazardous area is defined as an area in which a flammable or explosive gas and air mixture is, or may normally be expected to be, present in quantities such as to require special precautions for the construction and use of electrical equipment and machinery. Ex equipment carries a marking plate that includes details about the surroundings and external influences the equipment has been certified for. Can you interpret the codes?

Having completed this course, candidates will know how mechanical Ex equipment is marked, and what the different markings mean. Candidates will learn to distinguish between the different types of markings and how to make good decisions when selecting equipment to use in an installation in a potentially hazardous area.

This course is aimed at personnel installing and maintaining mechanical equipment and other personnel planning or working on installations in potentially hazardous areas outside of the EU/EEA. The course will also be useful for manufacturers and suppliers of Ex equipment outside of the EU/EEA.

On completion of this course you will receive a Certificate of Completion from Ocean Technologies Group, powered by Marlins, Seagull and Videotel.
