This highly sought-after training course for inspections will teach individuals about cylinders and their makeup. It is the core certification course provided by PSI-PCI and teaches the regulations and fundamentals of conducting visual inspections of solid wall and composite SCUBA and SCBA cylinders. The full-day course is suited for those new to visual inspection as well as those who have been inspecting without formal training through its wide range of inspection subjects including damage limits, neck cracking and other cylinder issues, plus laws affecting inspectors.

Students will learn to identify unsafe cylinders, understand safe policies for filling cylinders, and the steps to qualify a cylinder for continued service. Additionally, this course meets the OSHA and DOT requirements for employee HAZMAT training and attendants completing the course are qualified to conduct HAZMAT training for cylinder handlers. Technicians who frequently work with compressed gas cylinders and educators who train people to use these cylinders should receive this formal training.
