Description

This course covers principles of commercial refrigeration and light commercial heat/air conditioning (AC) operation. Emphasis will be placed on the evaluation of the operational sequence of component parts for a variety of refrigeration systems, such as walk-in coolers, reach-in freezers, open display cases, beverage coolers, and a variety of three-phase commercial AC units and accessories. Students will monitor system operation, obtaining applicable performance conditions and diagnosis operation using EPA industry standards. Students will learn to troubleshoot electrical circuits, refrigeration circuits, water circuits, and air circuits for different refrigeration systems. Students will also systematically diagnosis a wide variety of commercial refrigeration and light air conditioning systems as well as correctly size components to select proper replacement parts following system analysis. The fundamentals of hydronics (heating or cooling by circulation of a fluid), steam heat and spe
