Before competency can be determined, individuals must demonstrate they can perform the following according to the standard defined in this unit’s elements, performance criteria, range of conditions and foundation skills:
assemble and install two different pneumatic system components, in which the work must involve adjusting and testing the installed pneumatic system.
Individuals must be able to demonstrate knowledge of:
work health and safety (WHS) and occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements relating to relating to assembling and installing pneumatic systems, including procedures for dealing with stored pressure hazards
environmental requirements, including procedures for trapping, storing and disposing of oils and fluids released from the system
types and applications of pneumatic systems
types, application and operation of pneumatic system components, including:
compressors
linear actuators
rotary actuators
drive motors
lines, hoses and couplings
control valves
pneumatic system assembly and installation procedures
key features of pneumatic system schematic diagrams and symbols
key features of engineering drawings relating to pneumatic systems
post-installation testing procedures.
Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
Competency is to be assessed in the workplace or a simulated environment that accurately reflects performance in a real workplace setting.
Assessment must include direct observation of tasks.
Where assessment of competency includes third-party evidence, individuals must provide evidence that links them to the pneumatic system components that they have assembled and installed, e.g. repair orders.
Assessors must verify performance evidence through questioning on skills and knowledge to ensure correct interpretation and application.
The following resources must be made available:
automotive repair workplace or simulated workplace
workplace instructions
manufacturer pneumatic system specifications
two different vehicles or machinery requiring the installation of pneumatic systems
test equipment for pneumatic systems
tools, equipment and materials appropriate for assembling and installing pneumatic system components.
