P403: Asbestos Fibre Counting (PCM)
This module provides theoretical and practical knowledge in the techniques of fibre counting of asbestos air samples using phase contrast microscopy (PCM). The module is a proficiency level which must aim to provide the student with the practical knowledge and skills to be able to carry out the stated work. In conjunction with the proficiency module P404. Air sampling and clearance testing for asbestos, this will then cover the requirements of the stage 4 clearance procedure.
