Chemical Process Automation Control Instrument Operation Certificate
Thread Content
I heard that now it is mandatory for employees in chemical companies who work with systems to obtain a certification in chemical automation control instruments. I’ve been working in this field for several years, and this is the first time I’ve heard that those who work with instruments and systems need to have such a certification. . . I’m not sure if there are differences between different provinces and cities. .
I haven’t heard that those who work on DCS system maintenance are also required to obtain such certifications； This is mainly intended for those who carry out on-site instrument maintenance; it’s required in some cases and not in others. If it is required, then an instrument technician’s certificate is needed, similar to an electrician’s certificate. After all, when instrument technicians perform maintenance, they also have to work on-site, sometimes removing valves, instruments, or the power supply for instruments and so on. A DCS engineer moves towards the role of an engineer: assistant engineer → engineer → senior engineer → professor-level senior engineer→
I’m also very puzzled. . So it feels like this certificate is really crappy. .
It’s okay to take one exam, but I still don’t know where to take it
If you get close to me, I’ll go, haha
This is required by the chemical industry; it is included in the requirements for special operations, and it is part of the examinations conducted by the Safety Supervision Bureau
This is a certificate for special operations, regulated by the Work Safety Supervision Bureau; it relates to work involving chemical automation control instruments in the safe handling of hazardous chemicals
Register for the safety inspection agency exam. It definitely has to be. The safety supervision agency doesn’t care whether you work with DCS or field instruments; who knows if you might do both – applying a one-size-fits-all approach is a **common tactic.
I’m also in Dalian; we just finished taking the exam on the 23rd for the special operations certificate issued by the Work Safety Supervision Bureau. Operation of chemical automation control instruments in the safe handling of hazardous chemicals.
This certificate is one of the most basic professional qualification certificates for our team leaders. Both DCS team leaders and regular employees have to take this exam; you need this certificate to be able to work in this role. Recently, regulations have become stricter, so it’s likely that everyone will have to obtain this certificate in the future. There is a question bank; you can just answer questions from it. There are 100 questions, and as long as you get 80 points or more, it’s fine
