  1. Question 1

    A fixed gas detection system for toxic gas normally uses electro-chemical detectors. What level of accuracy can be expected?
    • Approximately 5 ppm.
    • Approximately 50 ppm.
    • Approximately 10 % by volume.
    • Approximately 30 % by volume.
  2. Question 2

    After washing and gas-freeing from a toxic cargo, what type of gas detection equipment should you use before entering a cargo tank?
    • A tankscope.
    • An Explosimeter.
    • Chemical indicator tubes.
    • An infrared gas detector.
  3. Question 3

    Cotton filters are sometimes used with hydrocarbon gas detectors. What is their purpose?
    • To remove water from the sample.
    • To prevent chemical contamination of the sample.
    • To remove dust from the sample.
    • To stop pressure surges in the sample line.
  4. Question 4

    For how long must the ventilation of a space be stopped before conducting tests of the atmosphere for an Enclosed Space Entry?
    • 10 minutes.
    • 30 minutes.
    • Briefly, while the tests are being carried out.
    • The ventilation should be run continuously.
  5. Question 5

    How will leaks in the sample pipework affect the operation of a fixed gas detection system?
    • It will cause failure due to high flow rate.
    • It will cause failure due to low suction pressure.
    • It will cause lower readings due to dilution of the sample.
    • It will cause higher readings due to increased flow rate.
