This paper will describe a Training Complex designed and built at MPW Industrial Services, Inc.'s Hebron, Ohio, headquarters. The Complex consists of a 40-foot high training tower incorporating several areas for hands-on waterblast training, including a 16-foot vertical condenser with confined space access; a stack-tool tower; an area for overhead waterblasting; and the means to string waterblast hose 40 feet up and back down. A 35-foot tank truck shell incorporates confined space access to a horizontal heat exchanger, while a separate stand-alone horizontal tube bundle is also available for hands-on lancing experience. A 6-inch underground polyethylene pipe with elbows is also available for line moleing experience. The paper will include photos of the Training Complex in use, as well as the philosophy behind the development of the Complex.
