Unattended Boiler Training
O'Brien Boiler Services has produced a program to provide students with sound knowledge and skills to safely operate an Unattended Boiler. Our courses typically take 1-2 days depending on the client's skill set and requirements. We find a single day course is best suited to technically originated people with a sound understanding of units of pressure, temperature and chemical terminology. The two day course is best suited for individuals with a limited technical knowledge and is intended to give students the ability to safely operate the boiler and meet AS2593-2004 requirements. Training can be provided on site and each student is provided with a set of course notes and a Certificate of Attendance on completion.
