COURSE OVERVIEW

 This practical and highly-interactive course includes various practical sessions and exercises. Theory learnt in the class will be applied using the following practical methods: 

(1) Industrial Facility Visit: Course participants will be taken to an industrial facility where they will practice testing, maintenance and troubleshooting. In case that this course is organized inside client premises (In-House), then client shall provide access to its HVAC and refrigeration workshop for practical sessions. 

 

(2) HVAC Simulator: Participants will use in the class the state-of-the-art HVAC Simulator to practice some of the skills learnt. 

This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of failure prevention in HVAC systems. It covers the HVAC and R common standards, systems basics and components; the psychrometric chart, air properties and systems equipment; the refrigeration and HVAC systems selection and protection; the HVAC systems performance calculation and improvement; and the HVAC and refrigeration systems energy efficiency ratio calculations (EER). 

 

During this interactive course, participants will learn to employ HVAC systems maintenance, troubleshooting analysis and fault finding; schedule and apply preventive and predictive maintenance of HVAC systems; recognize HVAC systems maintenance procedures and resources; perform HVAC systems daily checks; employ HVAC systems 3 months, 6 months and annual scheduled preventive maintenance procedures; identify the HVAC systems maintenance techniques and tools and how to pump down, charge and evacuate the HVAC units; and discuss maintenance and inspection standard according to ANSI, ASHRAE and ACCA 180-2010.
