GWO CoHE Training Standard (Draft)V0

Pressure Fluid Safety module

The participants can explain the stored energy hazards related to pre-charge pressure in an accumulator in a WTG environment (Knowledge, intermediate level). The participants show interest in avoiding the stored energy hazards related to pre-charge pressure in an accumulator in a WTG environment (Ability, basic level).

The instructor shall:

Present examples of situations or scenarios in a WTG environment that show the stored energy hazards related to pre-charge pressure in an accumulator e.g., unexpected release of stored energy in an accumulator. Facilitate practice for the participants in identifying the stored energy hazards related to pre-charge pressure in an accumulator and determining how to avoid these hazards through relevant actions and/or mitigations measures in the examples of situations or scenarios (previous point).

The participants shall:

Engage in the practice of identifying the stored energy hazards related to pre-charge pressure in an accumulator and determining how to avoid these hazards through relevant actions and/or mitigation measures in the examples previously presented.

The instructor shall:

Give constructive feedback to the participants answers from previous point (3.7.3).

PPE

30-45 min.

The aim of this lesson is to enable the participants to reduce the risk of injury for themselves and others by being able to select the correct and required PPE for working with hydraulic fluids and fluids under pressure in the wind industry.

After having successfully completed this lesson, participants can:

Take responsibility for selecting and using appropriate PPE for working with hydraulic fluids (Ability, intermediate level). Take responsibility for selecting and using appropriate PPE for working with fluids under pressure (Ability, intermediate level).

ELEMENT 4.1 - HYDRAULIC FLUIDS AND FLUIDS UNDER PRESSURE PPE

Learning objectives:

The participants can describe the importance of wearing the right PPE when working with pressure fluid systems (Knowledge, basic level).
