In this section the participant will receive a description to the type II CFC, types of refrigerants, ways of leak testing and finding leaks in a system. The student will be able to name the requirements when repairing leaks, time limits, and other options if leaks cannot be repaired.
In this Lesson the participant will learn about options and procedures if leaks cannot be repaired, leak rates for leaking units, new trigger rates for industrial prosses refrigeration, commercial refrigeration and comfort cooling systems along with leak rates that apply to that specific type. The student will receive instructions as to how to decide which percentage rate to use, when a unit is used for more than one type of cooling and extension requirements when more time is needed.
In this Lecture the participant will learn valid reasons to get extensions for leak repairs, record keeping requirements, procedures for mothballing an appliance, recovery techniques, recovery equipment requirements, maintenance, proper recovery procedures for faster evacuation, do’s and don’ts of recovered refrigerant, requirements for technicians using R134a and procedures for returning refrigerant to an appliance.
In this lesson the participants will learn about recovery machine requirements, evacuation rates and how that applies to different types of refrigerants. The student will be able to explain how the capacity of a system will affect the evacuating requirements and levels prescribed. The student will know when not to pull to EPA prescribed levels, types of recovery that can and cannot be used, describe what major repair is and purpose of a viewing glass/moisture indicator.
In this Lesson the participants will be able to describe system contamination, procedures to take when systems are contaminated, the purpose of crankcase a heater, reading deep vacuums, dangers of deep vacuums and how to counteract these dangers. The student will know the dangers of air and noncondensables in a refrigeration system, type of safety equipment required in mechanical equipment rooms, refrigerant categories, safety procedures when working on high pressure systems and compressors.
CFC Universal Exam Prep Course to achieve the Universal certification.
The CFC Universal Exam Prep course teaches you the dates, terminology, rules and regulations. Hence, knowing this is necessary to be prepared to take and pass the EPA CFC Section 608 certification Exam. This mandatory certification is necessary to be able to purchase and handle refrigerants. The certification is required in countries that are a participant in the Montreal Protocol. Consenquilly, without the Universal CFC certification, it is NOT possible to legally purchase refrigerant or provide service on an air conditioning system.
Please note that this online prep course does not include the cost of the actual EPA CFC certification test.
Should Upon successful conclusion of the course you have more questions regarding the test, please email to aca@airconacademy.com
Who should take this course:
HVAC Technician who would like to achieve CFC Universal Certification.
Learn Objectives of the CFC Universal Prep Course:
Learn Important Dates
Become familiar with the Terminology
Review Rules
Learn Regulations needed to legally purchase refrigerant or to service an air conditioning unit
In order to ensure the proper handling and recycling of refrigerant and waste materials, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) requires certification. The chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) certification process consists of a single CFC Universal Exam Prep Course that consists of four parts. As well as, CFC Universal Exam that lasts 3 hours. The course covers a variety of topics related to refrigeration and prepares you to take a certification exam.
After Completing This Part, You Receive He Knowledge To Pass The EPA Type II CFC Certification. You Can Describe What A High-Pressure System Is, Proper Evacuating Rates, Trigger Leak Rates Safety Procedures And EPA Mechanical Equipment Requirements.
