Explosions and fires in industrial heating systems can result in injury or loss of life, as well as loss of property and production. Understanding the proper use of National Standards governing the compliant design and operation of ovens and furnaces is essential for everyone involved with this type of equipment.
IHEA’s Safety Standards & Codes seminar is designed for individuals involved in the design, manufacture, service, or operation of ovens, furnaces, kilns, dryers, thermal oxidizers, and a wide range of industrial applications.
Don’t miss this important training event as IHEA presents a one-day Safety Standards and Codes seminar in conjunction with the Process Heating and Cooling Show Tuesday, May 23, in Rosemont, Illinois. The seminar covers critical safety information for those involved with a wide range of industrial thermprocess applications. This abridged, one-day course will focus on recent updates in the newly released NFPA 86 Standards for Ovens & Furnaces, 2023 Edition. Attendees will also learn identification of principles and concepts for several critical safety topics.
One-Day Program agenda includes:
- Overview of NFPA 86 standards for ovens and furnaces including administration, references, and definitions.
- General requirements, location, and construction.
- Classification of furnaces: A, B, C, and D.
- Gas line evacuation (purging) and charging.
- Commissioning, operations, maintenance, inspection, and testing.
- Hydrogen introduction.
- Burner management systems and PLC applications.
- IHEA speakers are directly involved with the NFPA committees and will discuss the changes in the newly released edition of NFPA 86.
Speakers include:
- Jeff Rafter, Selas Heat Technology Co. LLC.
- Jason Safarz, Karl Dungs, Inc.
- Bob Sanderson, Rockford Combustion.
The seminar registration fee includes classroom instruction, seminar materials, and handouts; lunch; and full conference registration to the Process Heating and Cooling Show. Attendees will also receive a printed copy of the 2023 edition of NFPA 86 Standard for Ovens and Furnaces. Upon completion of the course, seminar attendees will be issued a certificate documenting six Professional Development Hours (PDHs).
