Maintain, repair instrumentation process control analysers
Assessment tool
Version 1.0
Issue Date: May 2024
This unit applies to the use of electrical and electronic test equipment for transmission and signal measurement, and extends to the use of liquid analysis devices for the measurement of pH, selective ions, oxygen and electrolytic conductivity.
Included is the use of gas analysis devices operating on the principles of thermal conductivity, thermal reaction, combustion, paramagnetism, chemical absorption, ionisation, infra-red, ultraviolet, emission or absorption and solid electrolytic conductivity.
Tasks involve the use of hygrometers, wet and dry bulb and calibration of gas cylinders and gas supply equipment, the use of chemical calibration solutions and the use of special calibration devices specific to chemical detectors. Central to the task is the interpretation of electrical and electronic circuit diagrams and the interpretation of calibration and analysis data and procedures in accordance with manufacturers' data sheets. Safety codes of practice including the identification, handling and appropriate use of high pressure gas cylinders, equipment and chemical solutions are included.
Work is undertaken autonomously or in a team environment, using predetermined standards of quality, safety and workshop procedures. Tasks are performed in laboratory, workshop or on-site environments.
Unit MEM05002B (Perform high reliability soldering and desoldering) must also be selected if soldering of components is required to advanced or military specifications, where the reliability of electrical connections is critical, or where surface mounted devices are being soldered/de-soldered.
If diagnosis and repair of electronic equipment is undertaken to component level Unit MEM18056B (Diagnose and repair analog equipment and components) and/or Unit MEM18065B (Diagnose and repair digital equipment and components) should be selected.
Band: B
Unit Weight: 6
This unit covers performing preventative maintenance on process control analysers; completing fault documentation; planning corrective action; repairing, replacing, overhauling, calibrating and testing; re-installing and recommissioning process control analysers.
