Compressed Air Systems Technology (CAST)

Breathing Air - The provision of breathable air to be used by a person in the execution of a work related task is controlled by certain legal requirements. Understanding of these legal requirements is essential for the safe use and provision of breathing air and equipment.

Candidates will attend to maintain knowledge of pressure systems safety regulations. The lesson will develop current skill levels of candidates to promote continued best practice in the examination of compressed air pressure systems. Candidates will be required to demonstrate appropriate knowledge during a Q&A session. Candidates will be trained on current legislation relating to pressure systems and how to interpret that legislation.

What Does This Course Cover? The course has been developed to give individuals the basic knowledge and skills to provide examination services in accordance with Regulation 9 of the Pressure Systems’ Safety Regulations, S.I. 2000 No. 128. The course is based on the requirement of Regulation 9, which requires that a ‘competent person’ performs an examination of specified parts of a compressed air system.

Members are perfectly placed to help the wider industry, from small to large organisations cut their compressed air energy. By completing all eight of our ‘Taskforce 10’ short development courses, you will be able to discuss how and why businesses should develop a strategy to drive down energy costs. From the smallest of leaks to larger investment in whole compressed air systems or more efficient machinery you can rely on a Compressed air specialist who will be able to guide you through suggested priorities. ‘Taskforce 10’ aim is to save the industry 10% of energy costs equivalent to £147.5 million.

Compressed air is a safe and reliable form of power, widely used in industry and business. Compressed air, however, is not clean It contains many hazards in the form of contamination. In a typical compressed air system, there are 10 main contaminants that require treatment if the system is to operate safely, efficiently and cost effectively. A full understanding of ISO 8573 is vital before any decisions on equipment selection and testing methods are undertaken. ISO8573 has many parts and this training course will guide and direct you through each part and explain the necessity to combine all parts whether you are a supplier, consultant, service provider, or user of compressed air. The course provides a tutorial to help you understand where these contaminants come from, how they can affect compressed air systems and how they are best removed.

Compressed air serves as a reliable and safe power source across diverse industrial and commercial sectors. However, the inherent presence of contaminants within a typical compressed air system demands proactive treatment to ensure safe, efficient, and cost-effective operation The food and beverage industry often overlooks the critical role of compressed air during Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) assessments. Many contaminants within compressed air are microscopic, and consequently omitted from hazard analyses. This learning event will equip participants with a comprehensive understanding of ISO8573-1, a robust framework designed to guide the continuous improvement of air purity within your industry.

Compressed air is a safe and reliable form of power, widely used in industry and business. The User / Owner of a compressed air system has a responsibility for the safe operation of that pressure system. The course provides a tutorial to help you understand the legal requirements surrounding the Pressure Systems’ Safety Regulations, 2000 S.I. 128, with emphasis on the responsibilities of the parties involved and of those who draw up or certify written schemes for compressed air systems.

Online e-learning module. This module is an H&S product suitable for all persons who will or may be as part of their employment or hobbies be required to operate/use or be in the vicinity of a compressed air system. Is suitable as an induction tool for new starters.
