Hazardous Location Installations - Know Your Options Anyone faced with electrical installations in Hazardous (Classified) Locations has the challenge of determining the best protection options for their applications.  These decisions include such issues as system safety and reliability; product availability; personnel training; installation, operation and maintenance costs; while meeting all applicable codes, standards and practices.  You must be thoroughly familiar with the protection techniques, advantages, disadvantages, and proper application in order to make sound decisions.  IPC offers a thorough and economical seminar to educate Engineers, Technicians, and Managers on all Hazardous Location Protection Techniques recognized by the National Electric Code.  We will focus on Articles 500 through 505 of the National Electric Code and arm you with the best practical information available, so you fully understand each technique and make proper choices on projects.  Training on International codes, standards, practices and directives available upon request. A detailed overview of this training seminar can be viewed here.
	Surge Protection - Reliability, Availability, Maintenance (RAM) Program Lightning and Surge are the single most significant causes for control equipment failure.  A close second is maintenance.  There is an appropriate level of surge protection that, when applied to a plant, reduces equipment failure directly, increases plant availability, and allows the maintenance team to perform more proactively.  Learn how to benefit from a review of the "electronic assets" of the plant and protecting the critical, susceptible, and expensive-to-replace control equipment.
	Gas Detection Develop an understanding of the selection, installation, operation and maintenance of: catalytic sensors for combustible gas; electrochemical sensors for oxygen and toxic gas; infrared hydrocarbon gas detectors.  This seminar provides a knowledge base of: key definintions; parameters in which gases create hazardous/explosive environments; effects of gases on personnel; and common sources of such gases.
	Fieldbus Learn how to design, connect, protect and diagnose Fieldbus installations.  From the Host I/O to the field device, our team provides training, engineering support, construction assistance, commissioning services and post project support.
	Industrial Wireless Learn about secure, reliable Industrial Wireless Networks, I/O, gateways, and modems.  This covers the basics of how it works, including frequencies, distances, standards, antenna selection, security and reliability.  Many applications of Industrial Wireless Networks are discussed with component selection and proper placement.
	Industrial Network Security Despite industry’s best efforts to isolate SCADA systems from the outside world, the statistics show that the bad guys (and bugs) are still getting in.  Traditional firewalls are too complex for most security professionals to configure correctly in the IT environment and are even harder to set up properly on the plant floor.  Once a virus or hacker gets past the control system firewall, the typical RTU, HMI, PLC or DCS is an easy target for attack.  Companies cannot rely solely on a "Great Wall of China" firewall architecture - they need a defense-in-depth solution for both new and legacy control and SCADA systems.  In addition, they need an open security platform that is designed from the ground up with the environment, staff capabilities and needs of industry in mind.  This seminar includes a live demonstration of defense-in-depth designed specifically for Industrial Control System Networks.
