This is a well established, information packed course for which MTL has become renowned worldwide. Today, it is enhanced by the inclusion of coverage of the new directives, new devices and the new directions taking place within the process control industry.

The agenda for the two-day course includes:

Flammable hazards and explosions; behaviour of flammable gases and dusts; review of current area classification practice; methods of protection for hazardous areas; standards, certification and other relevant regulations and codes of practice; introduction to intrinsic safety; installation, inspection, maintenance and fault-finding, including legal obligations; applications using barriers and isolators, "Smart" field devices and intrinsic safety; fieldbus and remote I/O systems in hazardous areas; applications of IS equipment where combustible dust is encountered.

The seminar is targeted at electrical and instrument engineers, technicians and other qualified engineers and its use in potentially explosive atmospheres.

Each delegate will be provided with a workbook containing a copy of the presentation materials used during the seminar, along with other relevant literature.
