To become an operator

The trainees will be trained in the risks related to the activity and the environment. The will learn about the safety signs and devices. They will discover effective methods to improve performance and productivity. They will master the right movements and positions. We insist on the safety rules inherent to the use of pressurised water to ensure their safety and the safety of other operators. We ensure that the trainees are aware of the vital need to use collective and personal protection equipment. We teach them the right behaviour to adopt in the event of an accident caused by using pressurised water.

To become a mechanical operator

In this module, we teach everything they need to know to guarantee high performance and safe installations. At the end of the training, the trainees will:

  • Know the techniques for the equipment and tools to ensure higher productivity
  • Master the technical basics to install safe connections (threads, seals, connectors, torque, etc.)
  • Be able to install a site according to the rules of the art
  • Be able to detect anomalies preventively during operations
  • Adjust and configure equipment in order to optimise the power consumed
  • Know the operation and installation of the safety devices
  • Be able to carry out servicing and the daily inspection
  • Master the actions to take if an accident occurs

To become a supervisor

This training module teaches the skills needed to supervise a site.

The supervisor will then be able to build up the right team and define the collective and individual protection equipment required.

They will be able to detect the advance warning signs of a potentially dangerous situation and will learn the methods to define risk zones when using pressurised water.

They will be trained in the risks involved in transferring dangerous products, notably those that may generate ATEX.

To become a maintenance agent

This training to become a maintenance agent teaches the rules of the art for maintaining industrial cleaning equipment. We provide a reminder of the vital technical basics (Vacuum, HP, threads, connectors, torques, MSP, etc.). We teach the basic principles to “lock down the equipment” and the main errors that should be avoided.

During this training, we look in depth at the operation of the equipment and accessories. We study common maintenance operations.

One of the objectives is also to detect the clues that reveal a possible failure.
