(add new lines for each of the assessment tasks)

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.

This field allows for different work environments and conditions that may affect performance. Essential operating conditions that may be present (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) are included.
Cooling systems include one (1) or more of the following:	engine or vehicle cooling large stationary plant combustion engine cooling cooling towers shutter type systems or fan drive water type inter/after coolers oil coolers
Cooling system testing includes one (1) or more of the following:	air and/or water flows temperatures pressures assess serviceability and repair on a range of: flow/pressure actuators sensors actuators and solenoids
Typical system faultsinclude one (1) or more of the following:	coolant pressures the presence of: steam gases oil fuel air corrosion contamination
Testing coolant condition includes testing for one (1) or more of the following:	correct additives including anti-corrosion and anti-freeze contamination, including: oil metal other particles
Components include one (1) or more of the following:	sensors caps gauges pumps fan drives and motors

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.
