Posted By steve_s666666 Hello all, I am about to start a series of risk assesments for mechanical equipment at a client facility. Does anyone have any risk assessment templates, worksheets etc.. That they might consider sharing with me? To save me re-inventing the wheel. A search on Google has drawn a blank for me. Secondly, I have failed to find the HSE DSEAR ACOPs for download anywhere, do they exist for download? Or just hard copies for purchase? Many Thanks. Steve.

Posted By Keith Oakes Steve, Sent you some info by e-mail that is available free on HSE web site. Hope it helps Keith

Posted By steve_s666666 To those who have offered help and assistance many thanks. For your information, I have found that there are some very good articles available from the IMechE Library service. There are a number of papers specifically relating to complying with ATEX when using pre-ATEX Mechanical Equipment in Hazardous Areas. Armed with this and the information from here, I know eactly where I am headed. Many thanks. Regards Steve.
