Steam Boiler Water Testing Course
Category: Organisation Event
Location: DoubleTree by Hilton Cambridge Belfry
Contact: info@cea.org.uk
Do YOU and your BOSS actually know if your Boilerhouse and Steam Systems are safe?
We see lots of dangerous incidents that should be reported under RIDDOR which could have led to serious accidents and potential fatalities.
Please remember, Its not the contractor who is responsible it's You.
Guidance document BG04 for boiler water treatment clearly states that 95% of all boiler related incidents and accidents are as a result of bad management of boiler water treatment.
This is not a course for Chemists or water hygiene people, it’s for the people looking after boiler plants. Read more you don't have to be BOAS accredited to attend this course.
If you are BOAS accredited you will know that BOAS only touches on Steam Boiler Water Testing (SBWT) during the course.

Smart Industry Conference: Demystifying the jargon
Category: Conference
Location: Advanced Manufacturing Training Centre, Coventry
Digitalisation presents huge opportunities for British manufacturing over the next decade. However in the UK there is an enormous information vacuum, and many SMEs need urgent guidance in clear and concise language in order to prepare for this transformation, so as not to be left behind their global competitors.
The Smart Industry series of Conferences will address and unravel the vast array of conflicting information around 4IR, discussing the practicalities, technologies and issues surrounding transition and implementation of digitalisation in manufacturing across key market sectors in clear and concise language.
The conferences’ main aim is to provide a practical, jargon-free opportunity to those starting out on the digital transformation process, to experience a complete smart roadmap, highlighting the incremental stages of the 4IR journey covering all aspect of the digital transformation.
