SER120 - Centrifugal Fundamentals
Class Description
In this course, students learn how to operate, maintain, troubleshoot and service 19 Series low and high-pressure machines (including PIC controls on newer models). Learning is tested in our labs, including electrical troubleshooting of the 32SM and 3200MP control systems. Studies include: refrigeration cycles, compressor theory, lubrication cycles, purge operation, refrigerants, heat exchangers and heat transfer. The course also covers troubleshooting techniques and equipment needed to: record and analyze machine temperatures and pressures; determine performance using heat exchange approaches; waterside flow rate analysis; maintenance requirements; and logging machine data.
Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:
- Use product literature to answer questions pertaining to design features, installation, start-up, operation, maintenance and parts
- Determine system efficiency component enhancements
- Determine proper flow through the cooler and condenser heat exchangers based on nozzle arrangement and pressure drop
- Recognize 19D low-pressure machine's refrigeration, lubrication, motor cooling and purge cycles as well as educator and demister circuits
- Recognize 19D high-pressure machine's refrigeration, lubrication, motor cooling and dehydrator cycles, as well as educator and demister circuits
- Determine chiller capacity, troubleshoot and identify system problems using data from operating log sheets
A cumulative score of 70% is required to pass this course. The score is a combination of attendance, class participation, and a demonstration of skills and knowledge through quizzes and/or work sessions.
