Fire and Gas Leak incident are the worst nightmare for any operating company. Fire & Gas   systems are deployed to continuously monitor plant activity and in case of hazardous conditions initiate appropriate actions. This systems need to work from the detection of gas leak or fire up to a proper plant shutdown and fire suppression. They are critical to plant safety and their efficiency and reliability is of utmost concern not only to plant operators but also to the environmental & business insurance authorities. This training course has been designed to cover the fire, gas detection and alarm system, including associated hardware and wiring.  Upon completion of the training course, participants will have a better understanding of the operations, maintenance, and testing associated with a fire and gas detection and alarm system.
