Professional F-Gas & Hydrocarbon Refrigeration Training in Telford, Shropshire
At ACR Refrigeration Training, we provide professional F-Gas and Hydrocarbons Training from our dedicated training centre in Telford, Shropshire.
Our courses are designed for refrigeration and air conditioning engineers, technicians and businesses looking to develop their practical skills, gain recognised qualifications and meet the requirements relevant to working with refrigerant gases.
We offer F-Gas Category 1, Category 2, Category 3 and Category 4 training, with qualifications awarded through City & Guilds and BESA Academy.
Whether you’re new to the refrigeration and air conditioning industry, an experienced engineer looking to formalise your existing knowledge or an employer looking to train members of your team, we have courses to suit a range of experience levels.
F-Gas Training Courses
Our F-Gas training provides engineers with the knowledge and practical skills required when working with fluorinated refrigerants.
We offer training across:
F-Gas Category 1
Our F-Gas Category 1 training is designed for engineers who need comprehensive training covering the practical activities associated with refrigeration, air conditioning and heat pump equipment.
Training includes relevant theory and practical skills, helping delegates develop the competence required for working with refrigerant systems.
F-Gas Category 2
Category 2 training is designed for engineers whose role involves specific activities on refrigeration, air conditioning and heat pump systems within the scope of the qualification.
F-Gas Category 3
Our Category 3 course provides training for those requiring an understanding of refrigerant recovery and the relevant practical procedures associated with equipment containing F-gases.
F-Gas Category 4
Category 4 training is aimed at those who require knowledge of F-gas legislation, environmental considerations and the responsibilities associated with fluorinated refrigerants, without undertaking refrigerant handling activities.
Hydrocarbon Refrigeration Training
With the increasing use of lower-GWP and natural refrigerants, hydrocarbon refrigerants such as R290 (propane) and R600a (isobutane) are becoming increasingly important within the refrigeration industry.
Our hydrocarbon refrigeration training provides engineers with the knowledge required to understand the safe handling, installation, servicing and maintenance considerations associated with hydrocarbon refrigerants.
Training covers the particular characteristics and hazards associated with flammable refrigerants, together with appropriate working practices and safety procedures.
Our practical training environment allows delegates to develop their understanding in a controlled training-centre environment.
Practical Refrigeration Training
At ACR Refrigeration Training, we believe that effective training should involve more than classroom theory.
Our dedicated training centre in Telford, Shropshire provides a practical environment where delegates can develop their knowledge and skills through hands-on training.
Our training can cover areas such as:
- Refrigerant handling
- Recovery procedures
- System evacuation
- Refrigerant charging
- Leak detection
- System operation
- Pressure and temperature relationships
- Refrigeration system components
- Safe working practices
