Modular 10 Day Air-conditioning & Refrigeration Technology
(Incorporating F-Gas (CITB J11) and Pipework & Brazing (CITB J05);

Crownship’s industry experienced tutors provide an environment conducive to learning, supporting candidates throughout all the stages of the course.

Comprehensive air-conditioning and refrigeration workbooks and study notes enhance the learning process.

Benefits of the qualification:

On completing the programme you will have a comprehensive knowledge of air-conditioning and refrigeration systems plus CITB (J11) F-Gas Regulations and CITB (J05) Pipework and Brazing nationally recognised industry qualifications, thus opening up opportunities for employment in the air-conditioning and refrigeration industry.

The course also provides a sound base for additional air-conditioning and refrigeration qualifications:

• City & Guilds 6127 Technical Certificate (Home Study)
• NVQ Level 2 in Air-conditioning and Refrigeration
• NVQ Level 3 in Air-conditioning and Refrigeration


This course is made up of 5 modules:

Air-conditioning and Refrigeration Technology:
• Refrigeration principles. Latent and sensible heat.
• Basic vapour compression refrigeration cycle.
• Refrigerants, their properties, safe use and storage.
• Locate and identify system components, explain their functions.
• Identify abnormalities and prescribe corrective actions.
• Periodic maintenance and the use of cleanliness as an aid to leak detection.
• The importance of system monitoring.
• Recording of instrument readings and work carried out.
• Connect manifold gauges to system to aid diagnosis.
• Recover refrigerant/pump system down to carry out repairs.
• Replace faulty components as required.
• Electrical isolation, testing controls, control replacement.
• Manufacture of replacement of copper tubing as required.

Practical fault finding exercises on working refrigeration and air-conditioning systems, such as:

• Blocked filter/dryers
• Blocked expansion valves
• Dirty condensers
• Faulty LP and HP Switches
• Adjusting LP and HP Switches
• Pumping system down to rectify faults
• Evacuating system using the Triple Evacuation Method;

F-Gas Regulations and Qualifications (CITB J11):
• Safe Handling of Refrigerant Techniques
Pipework and Jointing Skills
• Recovery of Refrigerants (restricted to small systems only)
Intrusive and Non-Intrusive Leak and Performance Checking of Systems
• Leakage checks, recovery, install, service, and maintain - all Systems.

Pipework and Brazing (CITB J05):
• This Scheme allows delegates to carry out Pipework and Brazing on a range of Industrial Refrigeration pipe sizes. The delegate will have to produce a Practical Test Piece (1" 1/8 to 1" 5/8) ,which will be Pressure Tested in accordance with the relevant European Standard and then subjected to a destructive test to ensure a leak free joint.

Split Systems:
• Theory: Covering site survey, regulations, basic heat load calculations, A/C equipment siting, installing pipe and cable runs, air movement and noise transmission.
• Practical: Covering wall mountings, installations pipework, making connections, insulations: leak testing, vacuums and charging, commissioning of systems and hand over.

Essential Electrics:
• Safe Isolations
• Types of Instrumentation
• Electrical Regulations
• Supply Systems
• Earthing Arrangements
• Control and Protection Equipment
• Terminations and Installation Practices
• Electrical Safety checks
