SER172 - Semi-Hermetic Compressors, 06C/D/E
Class Description
The goal of this course is to train field personnel to identify and correct the causes of compressor failure so that repeated failures are eliminated. The program includes: Introduction to Carlyle Compressors; models 06D and 06E familiarization and operation; reciprocating compressor failure diagnosis, teardown, and analysis; system diagnostics; procedures to prevent repeat failures. Students tear down and analyze field-returned failed compressors.
Course Objectives:
- Read and interpret Carrier model and serial numbers to obtain useful information
- Explain purpose of compressor components and how compression and lubrication systems operate
- Define various failure modes and explain sequence of events that can lead to failure
- Evaluate oil quantity, quality, and condition; explain causes of rust at various shell locations, recognize overheated bearings and heads, measure and evaluate motor winding resistance values, recognize the difference between good and bad; bearing surfaces, valves, valve plates and gaskets
- Relate physical characteristics to possible causes and then determine underlying cause of failures
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.
Suggested Prerequisites: SER027 (HVAC Electrical Pro-Troubleshooting), SER028 (HVAC Mechanical Pro-Troubleshooting)
