FIELD: personnel training tools.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to training tools for personnel of gas transportation enterprises and can be used to teach and control knowledge on the efficient and safe conduct of technological processes of gas transportation for both students and specialists in advanced training working at typical gas distribution stations (GDS) used at gas transportation facilities. A full-scale simulator of a gas distribution station contains a compressor unit connected to each other by a pipeline, a security valve, a switching unit, a gas flow measurement unit, an odorization unit, and a cabinet gas control unit. Also, the simulator contains an operator room with an automated workplace, a gas metering unit for own needs, a cathodic protection station connected to the pipeline by a cathodic protection cable before entering the switching unit and at the exit from the odorization unit, a perimeter alarm system. At the same time, the security valve is located at the entrance to the system and is connected by a pipeline to the compressor unit and to the switching unit, and through the telemechanics cable lines to the operator's automated workstation. The automated workplace is connected by telemechanics cable lines to the switching unit, the heating unit, the reduction unit, the gas flow measurement unit and the odorization unit.

EFFECT: level of training of trainees is increasing.
