Product Training

Introduction

CRP are keen to help customers choose the correct lined equipment for the job and get the best out of it.  With the health, safety and environmental duties that come to bear on many of our customers and the need to keep the general technical level of understanding up of an ever changing workforce, CRP has developed training to assist design, project and plant engineers to understand the world of lined equipment.

Objective

To provide a comprehensive overview of PTFE lined piping systems, including an understanding of why such materials are selected and how they are used.  This could be to meet training obligations – either for continuous professional development, or to fulfil health and safety requirements.

Method

Usually this is provided via a classroom based training session (site based), making use of audio-visual presentations and classroom media.  The training session would typically last two hours and a class size of around 10 is ideal. The training is provided by our technical, manufacturing and commercial staff as appropriate.

Following the training session a short multiple choice question paper is set to both help fix and confirm understanding.

As part of the presentation, CRP will put together a small exhibition of products to aid understanding and a question and answer session concludes the training.

Agenda

A typical agenda will comprise;

  • The Company
  • The Products
  • PTFE – What is it?
  • Other Fluoropolymers
  • Liner and PTFE Process Choices
  • Fittings and PFA Process Choices
  • Design Fundamentals
  • Manufacturing Control
  • Pipe Liner Manufacture
  • Spool Lining and Flaring
  • PFA Moulding Manufacture
  • Lined Equipment Application
  • Electrostatic & Earthing
  • Materials Traceability
  • Project Management

Course Materials

We plan to provide course materials for each attendee, which will include notes relating to the presentation and other reference materials for subsequent reference.  We will also provide immediately after the visit, certificates confirming the individual’s attendance and understanding of the training.

Caveat and Costs

It is important to comment that we are not acting as paid consultants. We are not insured for such a role. However, we believe that we can bring a wealth of both theoretical and practical experience that is not available from other sources, which should give your team and others a good background in working with these materials.

We see the provision of such training as part of the added value that a supply chain relationship with CRP can bring.  To this end we offer such training to our supply contract customers and their agents and sub-contractors. Costs are usually on the basis of meeting our expenses.
