Level 3 Award – The Installation & Maintenance of Compressed gases Supply Systems – Practical Session.
All learners are required to complete the following practical activities in bays, which simulate real pressure systems.
Following detailed instruction, learners must demonstrate that they can successfully complete key tasks. Learners will be given two opportunities to complete these critical tasks.
All successful learners will receive:
PGS Certification is valid for 3 years after which refresher instruction is recommended

Attendance provides the information required to understand the specific hazards associated with compressed gases such as Nitrogen, CO2, Hydrogen and Argon and other gases used in Laboratory or Industrial applications, resulting in an assured workforce and a safer workplace.
These gases are colorless, odorless, and tasteless, making their presence undetectable. They can displace oxygen, creating an asphyxiant atmosphere.
The most common inert gases include argon, nitrogen, helium, and carbon dioxide.
Oxygen significantly supports combustion. Atmospheres that contain more than 23% oxygen are classified as enriched and poses an increased fire risk.
In an oxygen enriched atmosphere, even fire resistant materials, can ignite and burn intensely.
Flammable gases burn in air within certain concentration limits.
The range of these limits is called the flammability range.
These gases include acetylene, propane, butane, and hydrogen.
