Carrier General Air Conditioning Training I Set (Modules 1-10)

Textbook of Modules 1 to 10 Bound book which contains a copy of each of the modules 1 to 10 of the General Air Conditioning Training Fundamentals books.

General Air Conditioning Training – Fundamentals For HVAC service technicians starting their career, these training materials provide the student fundamental knowledge to become more effective in servicing mechanical air conditioning systems.

Key topics include: HVAC terminology, refrigeration cycle, system types, compressors, condensers, evaporators, metering device, refrigerant system controls and basic troubleshooting. These materials can also be used by instructors of HVAC training. Most topics contain programs for self-study and instructor-led training with skill assessment tests.

Introduction to Air Conditioning – Module 1 This module explains HVAC terminology and covers: heat, molecules, heat and temperature, heat transfer and kinds of heat. Skill checks of the material covered are included.

Temperature and Pressure – Module 2 This second module covers basic concepts of temperature and pressure including: measuring heat, graphing heat, rate of heat transfer and pressure. Skill checks of the material covered are included.

The Refrigeration Cycle – Module 3 This module introduces the function of the four major components including: basic refrigeration cycle, closed cycle, mechanical refrigeration system components, and how to read a P-H (Pressure - Enthalpy) diagram. Skill checks of the material covered are included.

Systems – Module 4 This module describes various types of air conditioning systems including: types of systems, refrigeration systems, packaged systems, split systems and other systems. Skill checks of the material covered are included.

Compressors — Module 5 This module introduces basic compressor types, construction, function and capacity including: reciprocating, rotary, scroll, screw and centrifugal. Skill checks of the material covered are included.

Condensers — Module 6 This module covers operation of condensers, condenser types, construction, condenser capacity and how condenser problems relate to system troubleshooting. Skill checks of the material covered are included.

Evaporators — Module 7 This module covers the evaporation process, DX and chilled water types and construction, capacity, relationship to the PH chart and troubleshooting. Skill checks of the material covered are included.

Metering Devices — Module 8 This module covers metering devices both modulating and fixed orifice control including: operation, types, construction, troubleshooting and shows the expansion process and superheat control within the refrigeration cycle. Skill checks of the material covered are included.

Electrical and Refrigerant Controls — Module 9 This module introduces primary, secondary and safety controls including: thermostats, pressure stats, solenoids, reversing valves, timers, overloads and relays. Skill checks of the material covered are included.

Refrigeration Cycle Accessories — Module 10 This module addresses eight of the most common accessories used in refrigeration systems including: filter driers, sight glass/moisture liquid indicators, accumulators, crankcase heaters and mufflers. Skill checks of the material covered are included.
