Professional Learning Center
1330 Kemper Meadow Drive
Cincinnati, Ohio 45240


Content
ACGIH®'s Fundamentals in Industrial Ventilation is a 3-day course that covers both basic and advanced topics related to industrial ventilation including:

  • The behavior of air and chemical contaminants in the air
  • Industrial process exhaust systems
  • Make-up and supply air ventilation systems
  • Dilution ventilation systems
  • Selection and design of exhaust hoods, ducts, fans, stacks, and air cleaners
  • Troubleshooting and testing of existing systems

At the end of this 3-day course, participants will be able to:

  • Identify and select appropriate ventilation systems for process emission/exposure control
  • Measure the performance of ventilation systems
  • Design and evaluate dilution ventilation systems
  • Design/re-design local exhaust systems using state-of-the-art CADD design procedures
  • Design, operate, and modify hoods appropriate to participants' needs
  • Critically review ventilation system plans, drawings, and specifications of engineers and architects

Content
ACGIH®'s Practical Applications of Useful Equations is a 2-day course that serves as the perfect add-on to Fundamentals in Industrial Ventilation. Practical Applications of Useful Equations closely follows Jeff Burton's Useful Equations workbook supplied to participants and includes:

  • Calculation and estimation approaches related to airborne contaminants
  • TLV® and TWA
  • OA for dilution, fans, system testing, sound and noise, ergonomics, radiation, ventilation, statistics, chemistry, etc.
  • A calculations lab in which participants work in a team environment

At the end of this 2-day course, participants will be able to:

  • Understand the basic fundamentals, estimation techniques, and calculations related to occupational health and safety
  • Understand terms and units used in OH&S related estimations and formulas
  • Understand and apply formulas related to OH&S estimations and calculations
  • Use dimensional analysis to generate formulas and mathematical relationships
  • Use AutoCalc calculator to perform calculations
  • Prepare for certification exams

Each Student Receives*:

  • Jeff Burton's Useful Equations and Industrial Hygiene Workbook
  • Course handouts
  • A pre-programmed AutoCalc calculator that performs common OH&S calculations. The AutoCalc calculator's programs include but are not limited to: duct data, estimates OA and dilution air volumes, calculates purge and build-up rates, estimates amounts of outdoor air volumes from temperatures and CO2 decay.
  • CD-ROM with Calculator PDF files and manuals, and labs and exercises.
*No exchanges or refunds of course materials can be made.
