A description of the Human Interface panel and its set-up is covered. Finally, a look at the unit wiring diagram rounds out the class.
This one-day class on variable frequency drives consists of concept, application, installation and maintenance. The course will cover general VFD theory of operation that is not vendor specific. Also discussed are startup, programming, troubleshooting, and motor selection. We will discuss the difference between balance and harmonics as well as the effects that harmonics can have on the electrical systems. Whether it’s called a freak, a drive, a VFD or an AFD, what was once limited to very large horsepower-expensive units has found its way into everyday applications. The Trane TR200 programming is discussed.

EPA REFRIGERATION CERTIFICATION SECTION 608 REVIEW & EXAM Monday, October 21 8:00 am – 5:30 pm
Cost: $310
Instructor: Elmer Franklin
Cost Includes Study Guide & Exam Fees
This course prepares the attendee to take the EPA refrigeration certification exam. Some knowledge
of the fundamental concepts of the refrigeration trade, such as heat, pressure, the refrigeration cycle
and typical service procedures are necessary prior to the course. A preparatory manual is mailed to
the attendee to provide a review of these concepts and to cover other areas to study for the
exam. The intent of the course is to rapidly cover the topics that the attendee will need to know to
prepare for the EPA exam. Topics covered include the refrigeration cycle, fundamentals of heat and
pressure, refrigerants, refrigeration applications, typical service procedures, EPA service regulations
including documentation requirements, global warming and ozone depletion.

several maintenance strategies to reduce total maintenance costs while still keeping the
equipment running in top shape. It prepares attendees to better understand the preventive
maintenance needs for building mechanical systems including: air handlers, low-
pressure boilers, package and split air conditioners, chillers and cooling towers. Included are
discussions on the use of operation logs, check sheets, procedure/process description sheets
and other quality tools to improve the process.
