1. OBJECTIVES
With operator course EXP-PR-UT020, the maintenance electrician (and also the operator,
instrument technician, mechanic…) has already been introduced to a good amount of
information. Presently, it is necessary to see both courses together, or else, rather this one
before the operator course.
The technician / operator will have learned the following in the first course:
The operation theory of the refrigeration loops
The various elements which make up a refrigeration loop
Their technologies
The special features of the various refrigerants
The technologies for connecting the devices of a refrigeration loop with the material
and tools used
The refrigerant filling methods
The current repair and maintenance techniques
The defects and problems which could arise in the refrigeration system (and how to
solve them).
…etc.…
At the end of this additional course the technician (the same), when pertaining to HVAC, should Have extended his knowledge of air-conditioning in general
Be able to explain the operation of a refrigeration loop; the principles reviewed in this course
Know how the heat pump operates Be able to explain how a reversible system operates
Be able to list the various air-conditioning methods which produce cold and/or heat
Be astute and know all the tricks to install, put into operation and repair a split system
