| Air Compressor Repair: Reciprocating
Compressors - Principles and Troubleshooting - This lesson
explains the normal operating conditions for a reciprocating air
compressor. The lesson also
focuses on how to troubleshoot typical
compressor problems such as knocking, failure to unload, and excessive
discharge temperature. |
| Air Compressor Repair: Reciprocating
Compressors - Disassembly, Inspection and Repair - This lesson
demonstrates how to disassemble, inspect, and repair various components
of a reciprocating compressor. Included in
this lesson are the
maintenance procedures for discharge
valves, suction valves, unloaders, and
cylinders and pistons. Additionally, the
lesson covers disassembly, inspection, and repair as well as the
reinstallation of the components. |
| Diagnosing
and Preventing Hermetic Compressor Failures - This interactive
program develops
skills which enable technicians to troubleshoot
problems with welded hermetic compressors.
It describes the two types of compressors
covered in this program including how
they operate and the normal and abnormal
sounds they make. |

Refrigeration Basics
- This course discusses
the theory of refrigeration, description and uses of refrigerants and
major
components of a system including functions and applications. Further
navigation
will lead to explanations on troubleshooting electrical problems, and
diagnosing
and solving problems arising with most refrigeration systems. |
