Why You Should Attend:
Ensuring the integrity of NGV fuel systems is a vital part of fleet safety. The National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA) requires all on-board CNG storage cylinders manufactured after March 1995 be visually inspected every three years or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first. In addition, cylinders should be inspected following any accident. Attending CNG Fuel System Inspector Training helps ensure that your fleet maintenance staff is adequately trained to maintain the safe operation of the fleet and to properly inspect CNG fuel systems.
What You Will Learn:
This two-day training course provides mechanics and other technicians the information and skills required to knowledgeably inspect CNG fuel systems, detect and assess damage and determine necessary next steps. In addition, upon completion of the course, students will be prepared to take the CSA Certification Exam if desired.
It is important to note that, while the course will prepare you to become a Certified Fuel System Inspector, NGVi does not administer the certification exam. In order to obtain certification, technicians must complete the application process and testing requirements of CSA Standards. For more information on certification, visit www.csa-america.org.

- Mechanics and other technicians responsible for maintaining natural gas vehicles
