Advanced ATEX Training Seminars

Pepperl+Fuchs is ideally placed to provide knowledge and expertise via our dedicated trainers to those companies and individuals working in potentially explosive and challenging environments.

Alongside our ever popular online seminars, we are also running another face2face seminar for ADVANCED ATEX on the 13th November 2024, typically 9am - 4pm, at our head office, in Oldham (Pepperl+Fuchs, 77 Ripponden Road, Oldham, OL1 4EL)

Places will be limited, so try to book early to avoid disappointment!

**You will also have the opportunity to book a place/s on our ATEX seminar, taking place on the 12th November and our SIL, taking place on the 14th November 2024**

The program targets management, engineering, production and safety personnel involved in equipment design and use, where potentially explosive atmospheres are present.
