This course is designed to link the two units based on current industry requirements and industry feedback, where you will be taken on a learning journey starting with:

The gas basics, principles, gas safety and testing method relating to Gas Stationary Engines and how to correctly install, commission, service & maintain gas stationary engines. Techniques include a what’s in a compliant technical submission, the installation process and commissioning and testing/compliance.

Importantly, further to this, why the gas stationary engine must be installed correctly first, proceeded by the second subject being Servicing, Repair and Correct Maintenance around the gas systems for gas stationary engines.

These units are designed for those wanting to work on gas stationary engines. Where it be to install and service or just service and maintain. Applicants can complete the service only unit, or the entire program to be able to install, commission and service/repair gas stationary fuelled engines.

It is recommended that the applicants complete both units to understand the importance of a correctly and compliant installation prior to serving and maintenance is commenced.

UEPMNT368  Repair and maintain stationary gas fuelled reciprocating engines
This unit covers the isolation, disconnecting, repairing, reconnecting and maintenance of stationary gas fuelled reciprocating engines as part of a routine maintenance or repair/breakdown service where required.

It encompasses working safely and to relevant standards disconnecting/reconnecting, carrying out repairs and replacement of gas fuel train components to given specifications. Reconnecting the engine including: pre-start tests, start up, adjusting components and controls to safe and efficient operation. Completing all required documentation.

This training covers the basics of install and commission but focuses on the repair and maintenance of stationary gas fuelled reciprocating gas fuelled engines complying with the nationally accredited training scheme.

You will complete this in conjunction with the install basics and if you require the install and commissioning unit then you will have additional training days and learning/assessments to complete the next unit UEPMNT367 .

UEPMNT367 Install and commission stationary gas fuelled reciprocating engines
This unit covers the installation and commissioning of stationary gas fuelled reciprocating engines as per the submission and specifications supplied and the Type B gas Approval as required. It encompasses working safely and to be compliant to the correct standards, mainly AS/NZS3814 matching the plant/equipment, location, components and fuel train pipework to given specifications. Commissioning the plant and equipment including: pre commissioning tests, start up, adjusting components and controls for safe and efficient operation. Completing all necessary compliancy documentation i.e. compliance certificates, installation and commissioning documentation.

You are required to complete and confirm competency in the following units as a pre-requisite before commencement and attending either of the Gas Stationary Engine units.

•  CPCCWHS1001 – Work safely in the Construction Industry (Statement of Attainment)
•  HLTAID001 – Provide Cardiopulmonary resuscitation – Perform CPR or equivalent.

Note: These units are not included however will be required to commencement and to fulfil the Gas Stationary Engine unit prerequisite  requirements.

Full Blended program (Service and Install) Gas stationary Engine course.

The GSE course has been redesigned to include both units, which are blended to create better skills and knowledge to not only service Gas Stationary Engines but to confirm the Gas Engine has been installed correctly and is compliant.

The online work has been increased to reduce the amount of face-to-face time theory and to increase the face to face practical concentrated practical over four days.

Why more online work?

Online work is spread over a longer period. To underpin and help you absorb the learnings, so when you get to the practical days, then you can apply what you have learnt onto the real-life Gas stationary engines, that you find in the field.

The Bizmatrix Gas Stationary Engines training rigs:

Simulate Large Gas Stationary Engines: LPG or Natual Gas greater than 1 MW and 4 MW.

Includes:

• Zero pressure regulators venturi-shaped fuel systems.

• Fully compliant gas valve trains and safety systems.

• Two types of engine cooling systems.

• Typical exhaust and cooling systems.

• exact commissioning and Gas engine setups.

1.  Online learning (Approx. 40 hrs) with weekly virtual classes and video instructions to be completed prior to face-to-face (F2F) practical.
2.  Followed by F2F Practical –  4 Days

Online learning with weekly virtual classes and video instructions to be completed prior to F2F practical

What’s in the Online Course.

Gas Basics Stationary Engines 2020 all online work (Approx. 40-50hrs)
Gas Stationary Engines Online Course
Module 1 – GSE Gas basics -Section 1-7 (Approx. 15 hrs)
Module 2 – GSE Section 1  8 (Approx. 35 hrs)

Note: you will be issued with a Training Plan Agreement – with the due dates for each section and these due dates are mandatory to achieve.

2.  On the successful completion of the online course by the due dates, then you will be able to attend the F2F practical training – 4 Days
