DSEAR 3 DAY COURSE - Risk Assessment Training

Our “Three Day” DSEAR training course is aimed at those who may be responsible for conducting DSEAR risk assessments but are not necessarily fully confident to do so. They may both work in the flammable substance environment, as well as having responsibility to manage the area on a day to day basis.

Whilst similar to the structure of the one-day DSEAR course, the content depth and the number of topics covered is greatly increased. Dust is featured in more depth and additional sections on ATEX classifications and BS 60079-10 Ex Zone determination are also included, giving a greater understanding of ATEX and how it fits into the DSEAR equation when establishing Ex Zones.

Explanations are provided on gas groups, subgroups, temperature ratings and so forth. Reference is also drawn to the theoretical understanding of flammable vapours with examples of how the Lower Explosive Limit can be converted into a meaningful quantity or volume of chemical per cubic metre of space.

Once again, each delegate will receive a full and detailed 140-page, training manual to assist with their learning. Working group activities are required along with a “multiple choice” exam at the end of the day. The required pass mark is minimum 70%.

The lecture covers :

• Legal foundations
• How sources of danger arise.
• What is the difference between flashpoint and Auto Ignition?
• The fundamentals on the origin of Explosions, Deflagrations and Fires
• Risks resulting from improper storage or handling of these substances
• The meaning of the danger triangle.
