Learning Outcomes and Application | This unit describes the performance outcomes required to install automotive air conditioning systems in vehicles and machinery for driver and passenger convenience and comfort. It involves preparing for the task, installing and testing the operation of automotive air conditioning systems, and completing workplace processes and documentation.It applies to those working in the automotive service and repair industry. Air conditioning systems include those being installed in agricultural machinery, heavy commercial vehicles, light vehicles or mobile plant machinery.Licensing requirements apply to this unit. Users are advised to check with the relevant regulatory authority. An Australian Refrigeration Council (ARCtick) Restricted Refrigerant Handling licence is required for those carrying out this work. | ||
Duration and Setting | X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting. Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements and hold an Australian Refrigerant Council (ARC) Refrigerant Handling licence. 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 air conditioning systems that they have installed in vehicles or machinery, e.g. work 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 vehicle and machinery wiring specifications relevant to system and components being installed manufacturer air conditioning system specifications Australian automotive code of practice: Control of refrigerant gases during manufacture, installation, servicing or de-commissioning of motor vehicle air conditioners. two different vehicles or machinery requiring installation of air conditioning systems material necessary to install air conditioning system components tools, equipment and materials appropriate for installing air conditioning system components, including: manifold and gauge set recovery unit vacuum pump electronic leak detector nitrogen cylinder and regulator digital vacuum gauge (vacrometer) multimeter electronic scales oil injector infra-red thermometer (pyrometer) electronic temperature probe valve core removal or replacement tool humidity detector (psychrometer) air conditioning gas appropriate to system being installed. |
