Description
This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to design industrial refrigeration systems and select components.It includes applying processes and methods of refrigeration and food storage technology, industrial refrigeration system components and piping, safety and relevant industry standards. It also includes following design specifications and customer requirements, and documenting system designs.The skills and knowledge described in this unit may, in some jurisdictions, require a licence or permit to practice in the workplace subject to regulations for undertaking refrigeration and air conditioning work. Practice in the workplace and during training is also subject to work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) regulations.No other licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
