Propane Response - 101 to Advanced Tactics

The “Propane Response – 101 to Advanced Tactics” class consists of classroom instruction using on screen presentations, display props and product demonstrations.

Topics of discussion include: propane properties, when to and when not to use normal tactics including rolling a tank to change what’s venting from it, flaring liquid and vapor, water injection, vehicle orientation, plumbing/piping systems, assortment of tank options/attachment points, valving, weight issues, pressure management, transportation options, pressure gauge verification, liquid volume and temperature control and more.

The students will participate in on scene operations that include tank management, liquid and vapor flaring and the use of water as a tactical option building on what was learned in the classroom on an assortment of tanks or cylinders that we supply.

The students will see firsthand the limitations caused by system restrictions that limit flow, the importance of managing product levels and how temperature and pressure information is applied. Flaring Propane with live demonstrations (live release if available based on jurisdiction) enforces the learning process and demonstrates an additional product management option.

Again, this course is designed to provide the student with the information needed to respond to, connect and manage a response on small and larger propane tanks with up to 2″ flow capacities utilizing multiple tactical options that include:

Venting to atmosphere

Freeze Patching

Liquid and Vapor flaring

Water Injection Practical evolution https://youtu.be/Fq7T3ait0WM
