check valves

solenoid valves

Test equipment includes one (1) or more of the following:

refrigeration gauges

thermometers

multimeter

vacuum pump

leak detector

associated hand tools

specialised hand tools

Performance incudes:

pressures, temperatures and relationships

Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
