A core interactive course of 19 interactions and 6 validated competencies covering whip, blow-out, injection injuries, and improper use of compressed air, plus the isolation and bleed-down decisions that make the work safe. It builds recognition of stored energy before it releases.
Compressed-air and gas system safety for everyone who works with fixed compressed-air or gas systems — shop air, pneumatic tools, air receivers, compressors, and plant air and gas piping: maintenance, production and shop workers alike.
Equip everyone who works with fixed compressed-air or gas systems to understand that compressed air is a loaded tool that never looks loaded — the receiver stays armed, the hose…
Workers who operate, maintain, or work around compressed air and pressurized gas systems, lines, and tools.
Passing the final test issues a QR-verified certificate, valid for one year.
This certificate records completion of awareness-level knowledge training in compressed air and gas systems safety. It does not authorize the holder to isolate, bleed down, disconnect or operate any particular compressed-air system, receiver or air tool. Before the work, the employer must confirm the worker is competent on the system, hoses, couplings and blow-gun nozzles actually in use, and the equipment manufacturers' instructions and the employer's own energy-isolation procedure always govern. This training does not create a pressure-equipment operator or power-engineering qualification, or lockout/tagout competency, which are separate training tiers.
About 1 hour online, over 5 modules, at your own pace. It ends with a final test that needs 80% to pass.
One year from the day you pass. Orientra’s standard is for compressed-air and gas system training to be reviewed at least annually and whenever the equipment, systems or processes change — a new compressor or air receiver, a modified regulator or relief device, a new tool or line, a different task, or a near-miss all trigger a refresh.
