This manual prepares HVAC-R technicians with the knowledge needed to respond professionally to current and future environmental challenges. It begins with discussion of HVAC fundamentals and core topics, such as: refrigerant chemistry, oils, ozone depletion, global warming, and the Montreal protocol. Subsequent sections, each conveniently organized around a specific certification type, allow readers to delve into specific technical information, regulations, and procedures pertaining to small appliances; recovery, recycling, and reclaim; and chillers. Relevant forms, logs, and reports, plus a comprehensive glossary, are also included in handy appendices. In a field where technology change is the norm, and regulations are increasingly requiring HVAC-R technicians to adopt new procedures in order to contend with environmental problems, this manual serves as both an effective test preparation guide and an indispensable professional field reference.
Refrigerant Transition andRecovery Certification Program Manual for HVACR Technicians - EPA Section 609 Test Prep Manual
The Esco Institute Quick Guide to the Refrigeration Cycle, Refrigerants, and Components is intended to provide industry personnel with a review/refresher of fundamental concepts needed to be successful on the EPA Section 608 examination. This book will provide an overview of the following: -concepts and measurements of pressure as well as the related gas laws. -temperature/pressure relationship as it relates to the refrigeration cycle. -study of thermodynamics and heat transfer. -the refrigerant cycle, refrigerant states, and temperature/pressure relationships. -refrigerant composition, properties, and refrigerant applications. -common oils used with refrigerants, their applications and uses, and safe handling. -the process of retrofitting a system to use an alternative refrigerant and oil as well as system cleanup. -the function and applications of evaporators, condensers, compressors, and metering devices. -typical operating conditions for system components under normal conditions. -proper installation and maintenance of the refrigerant circuit components.
As the HVACR industry continues to move forward and innovate, the refrigerants that were once so commonplace are now being phased out. Replacing them are more energy efficient, environmentally friendlier refrigerants, known as Low GWP refrigerants. Many of these new refrigerants are classified by ASHRAE as A2L, or slightly flammable. The industry is also seeing expanded use of some hydrocarbon (A3) refrigerants, such as propane and isobutane. Students and technicians will require additional training for the safe handling and transportation of these refrigerants. The Low GWP refrigerant program manual covers: Refrigerant safety Introduction to Low GWP refrigerants Refrigerant properties and characteristics The refrigeration cycle Working with refrigerant blends Proper installation and service guidelines Flammable refrigerant considerations Explanation of the associated codes and standards for A2L refrigerants
