OXY103 – DSEAR & ATEX Principles for LEV Specialists
BOHS Endorsed CPD MasterClass – 7 Hours Verified Contact Time
This advanced MasterClass strengthens the knowledge and professional judgement required to address DSEAR and ATEX considerations within LEV design, testing and Thorough Examination & Test (TExT) reporting.
Many LEV practitioners encounter explosive dusts, vapours or flammable atmospheres — yet feel less confident when interpreting DSEAR obligations or ATEX principles in practical scenarios.
OXY103 provides structured clarity on regulatory expectations, technical risk factors, and the professional boundaries of competence.
Who Should Attend
- P601-qualified LEV examiners
- LEV designers and commissioning engineers
- Technical managers responsible for LEV systems in higher-risk processes
- CoC(Control) holders seeking structured CPD
- Organisations operating in woodworking, paint spraying, food dusts, metal grinding, solvent handling or similar environments
Why This MasterClass Matters
DSEAR is frequently misunderstood within the LEV profession. However, explosive atmospheres and fire risks are often intrinsically linked to extraction system design, discharge location, filtration and maintenance regimes.
This MasterClass enables delegates to:
- Understand where DSEAR intersects with LEV responsibilities
- Interpret ATEX concepts in practical engineering terms
- Identify common weaknesses in LEV systems serving explosive atmospheres
- Recognise professional boundaries and when specialist input is required
- Strengthen defensibility when referencing DSEAR considerations within TExT reports
Technical Programme Focus
- What DSEAR requires — and what it does not
- ATEX principles in practical context
- Fundamentals of fire and explosion science
- Explosive dust and vapour characteristics
- LEV design considerations for combustible atmospheres
- DSEAR considerations at TExT stage
- Real-world examples: woodworking, paint spraying, aerosol filling, food dusts, metal grinding, battery charging and solvent handling
- Interactive technical Q&A forum
