This City & Guilds course will provide you with the knowledge and practical skills to undertake leak checking of stationary refrigeration, air conditioning and heat pump equipment to meet category IV theoretical requirements.

The course is delivered through a combination of classroom-based tutorials and practical assignments. Delegates will be assessed through a mixture of theory and practical tests.

Agenda:

• Basic standard units and thermodynamics principles of vapour compression cycle
• Cause and effects of global warming and climate change
• Identification of air conditioning and heat pump components, functions and leakage risk
• Hazards and safe working practices for leak checking of stationary refrigerant, air conditioning and heat pump systems
• Cause and effect of ozone depletion
• Undertake leak-checking and record-keeping
• Assessments

This two-day course is suited to delegates working within the refrigeration and air-conditioning industry who need to meet the legal requirements for working with fluorinated gases and other ozone-depleting substances.

Following successful completion of the course, delegates' results will be audited by a City & Guilds quality assurance process. On completion, a Level 2 award in F-Gas and ODS Regulations - Category IV - City & Guilds 2079-14 certificate will be issued (Please note the quality assurance process may take up to 12 weeks).
