IN-HOUSE TRAINING

We provide 24-hour and 40-hour Combustion Safety Training, 8-hour and 16-hour refresher training and TSSA approved IMT Training (Industrial Maintenance Technician), hours are based on a necessary personnel assessment and plant equipment assessment.

Hands-On training on your plants’ equipment, provides real life experience working with this vital equipment.

These Training programs will provide students with a better understanding of how their in-plant equipment operates. We discuss the operation and sequencing of burners and equipment. This leaves students with a keen understanding of the codes and their responsibility to work within these stringent code requirements.

We help with understanding how plant equipment functions within the building envelope, explaining the relationship between exhausts and make-up air for example. We also explore potential hazards in the workplace, along with providing recommendations to improve on current conditions.

  1. Fundamentals of Combustion – basic understanding of combustion and emissions including what to expect if burners are or are not set up correctly
  2. Basics Of Combustion Safety – Burners and Gas Valve Trains – including potential failure modes
  3. Fundamentals of Controls – Purge requirements, Flame detectors, Flame Safeguard Controls.
  4. Preventive Maintenance – Burners, Valves, Regulators, etc. including what can be rebuilt in the field and what must be factory

Salazar Industrial Training has trained more than 2500 trades personnel over the last 23 years. Training at customers facilities on site, such as General Motors, Ford, Ford Nemak, US Steel, Dofasco Steel, Arcelor Mittal, Linamar Gear, Esco Aluminum, Region of Muskoka, City of Toronto, Tate Flooring, Kingston Power Generation, Ontario Power Generation, and many others. We have been helping our clients become more knowledgeable about the equipment at their facilities to help prevent fuel related fires and explosions and to recognize potential hazards in industry for a long time.

Working with Salazar Industrial Training will help improve the reliability of your equipment; provide preventive maintenance procedures, to help increase lifespan of equipment; implement operational procedures to lower fuel costs and save employees lives.

Topics overview

Fundamentals of Combustion

Fundamentals of Combustion:

Introduces combustion, the fire triangle, fuel air gas ratios, types of burners and burner design. facilities

Valve Trains

Valve Trains:

Pilot valve train and main burner gas trains are discussed in detail, including testing safety shut off valves, pressure switches and regulators, and how these components function with each other.

Flame Safeguard Controls

Flame Safeguard Controls:

Explains what a flame safeguard control is and how it controls the firing sequence, how to trouble shoot flame detectors and ignition systems. Explains how and why purge timers are required and pre-ignition interlocks are discussed in detail (pressure switches, air flow switches, position switches, proof of closure, low-fire and hi-fire switches

Fire and explosion prevention

Fire and explosion prevention:

Describes conditions that can lead to fires and explosions, and how to look for hazards and prevent these events in commercial and industrial
