Applied Hydronics - CPD 1.0 F-Gas Refrigerants This CPD covers the latest updates relating to the F Gas regulations on the phase down of HFC refrigerants. In particular their impact on both manufacturers and installers on how they need to comply with the Directive with regards to use of refrigerants in Chiller systems.We discuss the use of different refrigerants and look at their impact on the Refrigerant phase down and the development of new low GWP refrigerants. We also review how this impacts the manufacturers of chiller systems and the considerations they need to take into account when developing new products using new low GWP refrigerants. In the final section of this CPD we look at the Eco Design Lot 21 Directive relating to the published energy efficiency of the all chiller equipment, detailing the guidance that all manufacturers need to follow to be able to publish their product energy efficiencies

Applied Hydronic CPD 2.0 Chiller Legislation In this CPD we look at some of the legislation and acronyms that are driving the market for chillers and heat pumps. This CPD provides background information explaining how chiller and heat pump efficiency is derived. The application of different compressors, heat recovery and free cooling is explained and how this can have an impact on energy efficiency. The F-Gas HFC phase down is also covered explaining GWP’s and the market trend.

Applied Hydronic CPD 3.0 Absorption Chillers This CPD is designed to cover the basic fundamental principles of how an absorption chiller operates, what needs to be considered when selecting an absorption chiller and how to apply them. In addition the CPD will cover what we need to take into account when considering the use of an absorption chiller in a “real life” situation and how absorption chillers can be used in a CHP system. Finally the CPD will finish with an overview of the Carrier portfolio.

Applied Hydronic CPD 4.0 Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) In this CPD we discuss IAQ (Indoor Air Quality) and the myriad of factors that affect it. We look at recent guidance and how HVAC systems can be key contributors in the improvement of IAQ. In addition the course covers the potential new and existing product innovations to support the quest for cleaner indoor air.

Applied Airside CPD 1.0 AHU Application & Design In this CPD we reveal the principles and approach of Eco Design along with how it shapes the rules of ventilation (LOT 6). We look at the main goals of Eco Design and how it is used to anticipate and minimize negative environmental impacts

DX/VRF CPD 1.0 A Basic Guide to Air Conditioning Covering the basic requirements to air condition a building including looking at heat gains and losses, the requirement for fresh air & how this impacts on the design of air conditioning solutions. VRF systems and basic software selections.

DX/VRF CPD 2.0 F-Gas Legislation F-Gas regulation and phase down process of high GWP refrigerants, charge thresholds, leak detection requirement, equipment and system test requirements. In addition training standards are all discussed in detail. Finally finishing with A2L application and additional training requirements.

DX/VRF CPD 3.0 Refrigerants Reasoning behind the progression to new refrigerant gases. Particular focus is paid to R410a R32 & potential new refrigerants in both split systems and Variable refrigerant basedsystems.

DX/VRF CPD 4.0 BREEAM Refrigerant Pump Down Credit & BSEN378 How leak detection pump down systems work and comply with current legislation regarding leak detection for occupied area’s such as hotels. How to demonstrate compliance for BREEAM credits and BS EN378 when applied to the safety of occupied spaces for both R410a and R32 refrigerants.

DX/VRF CPD 5.0 A Guide to Variable Refrigerant Technology Covering key client requirements for the installation of air conditioning systems and different design packages via Specification or D&B. The CPD covers the refrigeration cycle, the types of compressor technology that are used and how these relate to achieving SEER & SCOP energy efficiency levels. Demonstrating key elements of the design and system components we focus on hotel and office type applications for air conditioning utilising Toshiba’s Design Airs VRF selection software.
