Course Description:

'' This qualification provides enabling competencies to design and validate/evaluate refrigeration and air conditioning equipment and systems and provide technical advice.

Build on your existing refrigeration and air conditioning skills and knowledge. This qualification looks in-depth at designing, validating and evaluating refrigeration and air conditioning equipment and systems. With this advanced diploma under your belt, you’ll be able to provide specialist technical advice, seek work as an engineering associate or in areas like facilities management.

Whether you need refrigeration or an air conditioning system installed, serviced, or fully repaired, a refrigeration and air conditioning mechanic can do the job for you. And if it’s a large commercial or industrial cooling system that needs installing, they may need to assemble it first.

A cooling system is made up of many different parts, including a compressor, motor and air filter. Piping may also need to be attached and joints soldered to complete a system. Refrigeration and air conditioning mechanics ensure that each part of a cooling system is correctly positioned, before bolting it down with hand or power tools. They follow design instructions to ensure the parts are in the correct position. Pre-assembled units, usually for cooling domestic premises, just need to be installed by the mechanics.

Refrigeration and air conditioning mechanics also service and repair cooling systems. They regularly fix systems that have come to a halt because of electrical faults.

An understanding of mechanics, as well as good problem-solving ability is important in this occupation. Having an interest in electrical systems and electronic components will also help. During the installation of cooling systems, you’ll often refer to design drawings, so you’ll have to know how to interpret these. Excellent hand-eye coordination and good customer service skills for helping hot and bothered clients will help you prosper in this job.
