Gas Monitor Competence Training – BW Micro5 Gas Monitor

This program complements, but does not replace, the operating manual that came with your product. We strongly recommend reading the manual thoroughly before using the instrument. The product will function as designed only if used and maintained as per the manufacturer's directions. Failure to do so may result in the product not working properly, putting those who depend on the product for their safety at risk of serious personal injury or death.

The Gas Monitor Competence Training is not a luxury, but a necessity, since the gas detector - the single piece of equipment a worker's life hinges on - is NOT INCLUDED in the OSHA Confined Space Entry syllabus. Standalone OSHA courses leave employees ill-equipped to safely and confidently operate their gas detectors. This course is tailored to your specific monitor and offers insights not available in manuals or online videos. The Gas Monitor Competence Training bridges the gap between "compliance" and "safety," unifying the elements of a confined space recap and the functionalities of the gas monitors that are most beneficial to the workers, thereby aligning more effectively with 1910.146(h)(2).

The course contains:

• Refresher on confined space - definition and hazards
• Most prevalent gases, their behaviors in confined spaces, and their effects on your body
• Trade secrets for on-the-spot troubleshooting, including the Hard Zero©
• Appropriate and inappropriate responses to alarms
