Course Description
New Training Courses have been introduced to meet the legal requirement of EC Regulation 842/2006 (commonly known as the F-Gas Regulation). The scheme is designed for operatives who install, service and repair refrigeration, air conditioning and heat pump systems, and require the following skills: ▪ Safe handling of refrigerant techniques ▪ Pipework and jointing skills ▪ Recovery of refrigerants ▪ Intrusive and Non-Intrusive Leak and performance checking of systems.
Pipework & Brazing will form part of the new F-Gas Assessment, and delegates who have little or no experience of oxy-acetylene brazing should attend a ConstructionSkills’ Pipework & Brazing Course prior to being assessed under the new F-Gas Scheme. There will be 4 Categories of Certification:
- Category 1 (J11) Covers Leakage Checking, recovery of Refrigerants, Installation, Maintenance & Servicing for all size of Systems
- Category 2 (J12) Covers leakage checking, recovery of Refrigerants, Installation, Maintenance & Servicing for Systems less than 3kg refrigerant charge (6kg hermetically sealed)
- Category 3 (J13) Recovery of Refrigerants
- Category 4 (J14) Leakage Checking
