Eddy Current testing is a powerful addition to the visual cylinder inspection of aluminum cylinders. However, many in the industry continue to use such devices on the wrong cylinders or fail to operate the equipment properly. The USDOT recommends that all 6351 alloy high pressure cylinders be administered an eddy current test. This 3 - 4 hour course is an extension of the normal VCI or SCBAI inspector courses and provides PSI-PCI trained Visual Cylinder Inspectors with the added training to know when and how to conduct a proper Eddy Current Tests of SCUBA and SCBA cylinders. It is a "hands on" course and when possible students are encouraged to train on their own eddy current devices. Attendants are required to be certified by PSI-PCI as Visual Cylinder Inspectors and those who successfully complete the training will receive certification as PSI-PCI Eddy Current Service Technicians.
The tuition for this course is $175 and includes the Student Study Guide and PSI-PCI certification.
