Instrument and Control Maintenance Practice: Fire and Gas Detection Systems
This Unit develops the skills required to carry out routine maintenance of fire and gas detection systems in a training workshop, including preparation for maintenance activities, identification of hazards, using technical guidelines, preparing maintenance records and clearing the work area. It is recommended that Instrument and Control Maintenance Techniques: Fire and Gas Detection Systems is completed before or in conjunction with this Unit.
Learning Objectives :
Upon completion of the course, participants will be able to:
- Prepare to carry out routine maintenance on fire and gas detection systems.
- Carry out routine maintenance on fire and gas detection systems.
- Complete routine maintenance for fire and gas detection systems.
- Routine maintenance techniques for fire and gas detection systems.
- Routine maintenance procedures and workshop practice.
- Safe working procedures/practices.
Teaching methods :
- The course will be delivered by means of classroom lectures and practical workshop exercices.
- Observations must be used to assess learners as they perform the maintenance tasks. Observations must be carried by competent Assessors and recorded on an observation checklist. Safe working should always form part of the observation checklists.
- Learners must be observed working on an individual basis for a minimum of 50% of the maintenance tasks.
- Assessments can also be combined with other units where relevant – this could include the following:
- Instrument and Control Maintenance Techniques: Fire and Gas Detection Systems.
- Health and Safety in Oil and Gas Maintenance Workshops.
- Maintenance Working Practices.
- Pre & post course tests are performed to measure knowledge acquisition.
