Description
This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to analyse the psychrometric performance of heating, ventilation and air conditioning/refrigeration (HVAC/R) systems.It includes analysing HVAC/R system to provide solutions to psychrometric performance issues. It also includes working safely, gathering and analysing psychrometric performance data, applying problem-solving techniques, and developing and documenting results and solutions.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1 Prepare to analyse psychrometric performance of HVAC/R system
  • 1.1 Work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) processes and workplace procedures for a given work area are identified and applied
  • 1.2 WHS/OHS risk control measures and workplace procedures are followed in preparation for HVAC/R work
  • 1.3 Extent of the psychrometric issues are determined from performance specifications and situation reports and in consultation with relevant person/s
  • 1.4 HVAC/R activities are planned to meet scheduled timelines in consultation with other person/s involved in the work
  • 1.5 Strategies are formed to ensure HVAC/R analysis and solution implementation is carried out efficiently in accordance with workplace procedures
2 Analyse psychrometric performance of HVAC/R system
  • 2.1 WHS/OHS risk control measures and workplace procedures for carrying out HVAC/R work are followed
  • 2.2 Psychrometric principles are applied to analytical solutions to HVAC/R system
  • 2.3 Parameters, specifications and performance requirements in relation to HVAC/R system are obtained in accordance with workplace procedures
  • 2.4 Analysis of HVAC/R psychrometric parameters is carried out to provide effective solutions
  • 2.5 Unplanned situations are responded to in accordance with regulatory requirements and workplace procedures in a manner that minimises risk to personnel and equipment
  • 2.6 Quality of work is monitored against performance agreement and/or workplace procedures and industry standards
3 Document and report results of the HVAC/R psychrometric performance analysis and actions taken
  • 3.1 Solution/s to HVAC/R psychrometric issues are evaluated to determine their effectiveness and modified, as required
  • 3.2 HVAC/R analysis is documented and includes details of findings, calculations and assumptions
  • 3.3 HVAC/R analysis is reported to appropriate person/s to determine appropriate action to be taken based on findings
  • 3.4 Justification for findings and any actions to be undertaken in relation to the HVAC/R equipment is documented for inclusion in work/project or development records in accordance with industry standards and workplace procedures
