Ability of the students and instructors to use simulation Software which provide
accurate and real-time simulation of pneumatic and hydraulic systems should be
available.
Students should be given access to spare parts, apparatus, and test equipment
along with the required tools necessary for the work.
8. Range statement The workplace environment should be safe and hazard-free as is practicably
possible, and hazards and risk should be assessed, controlled and minimized.
Systems components should be kept in non-humid, well-ventilated and clean
environment to secure sustainability. The distance between systems should be at
least 2m to allow comfortable and safe maneuvering of equipment.
