LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

temperature by absorbing the heat inside the room. How does it happen?
works, we need to learn the some thermal laws related to refrigeration and
air-conditioning:
1. Fluids absorb heat while changing from a liquid state to a vapor state
These laws will help us fully understand the operation of the window-
type air conditioning system. Now we can start to discuss the operation of
window-type air-conditioning.
As we set the unit to fan mode, we are supplying power to the fan
motor. The movement of the fan motor will suck air from the air filter side
movement on refrigerant line). This process circulates the air from the room
becomes the same with the temperature, it automatically turns off the
As we set the unit into cool mode, we are energizing the motor
the condenser, to the metering device, then going to the evaporator and
returning to the suction line of the compressor. This completes the cycle. So
The refrigerant from the discharge line is a high pressure vapor. And
making the temperature in the condenser hot. The air which had been suck
by the condenser fan from outside of the room is a little bit lower compared
to the temperature of the condenser. This will now cool down the
(2); Heat flows only from a body which is at a higher temperature to a body
which is at a lower temperature (hot to cold). As the condenser gives off heat
to the surrounding medium, the refrigerant changes state from gas to liquid
but still it is high temperature high pressure liquid as stated in law number
one (1); Fluids absorb heat while changing from a liquid state to a vapor state
The liquid will now pass through the metering device where pressure
will drop through its throttling effect. Again as we know, if the pressure
heat (air coming from the room sucked by the evaporator fan) from room.
When the refrigerant absorbs heat, it boils and changes its state from liquid
to vapor as stated in law number (1); Fluids absorb heat while changing
vapor to liquid.
As low temperature low pressure vapor travels down the suction line it
refrigerant enters the suction line and passing to the compressor, it becomes
reaches the first coil of condenser. This cycle keeps on repeating until

Brand new units have the basic components and some of the
following:

b. brackets
d. drain pan
e. remote control
For brand new units, you need to inspect whether the unit‘s parts are
complete. You may do this by comparing the actual parts by what is listed in
the manual. You should check for paint for scratches or *dents in the body
and/or housing. If there are some defects found in the unit or lacking of
parts, it is important to inform your local distributor to avail warranty
services. They will be happy to help you because its part of their service.
For used units, you need to check the base plate of the unit for defects
or corrosion. Defective or corroded base plate may cause misalignment of
the mechanical parts of the air-con (usually the fan blade) when installed
and operated. It may also reduce the lifespan of the unit if not remedied.
Direction: Read the questions carefully. Write the letter of the best answer

1. Electrical wires are insulated with different types of insulators and they are
used to keep electricity from leaving the conductors it travels on.
Example:
Select the appropriate conductor type and size of the motor nameplate
below. The nameplate indicates that the motor is rated 1.5 horsepower,
110/220V. Let us assume that the motor will be operated in 220V source and
50oC ambient temperature.

Single motor requires conductors for 125% of full load ampacity [Section

Therefore;
Full Load Current = 10A X 125%
= 12.5 A
20 A X 0.58 = 11.6A
25 A X 0.58 = 14.5 A
20 A x 0.75 = 15 A

Philippine Electrical Code, Table 3.10.1.16. Use the ampacity correction

Procedure:
In the previous activities, you have learned the technical aspects in installing
window-type air-conditioning unit, now you will be learning the administrative side of
it.
The documentation process in a company may vary from one form to another.
The most common is the Service Report or sometimes called Job Order Form.
The Service Report describes the work done in a process and the resources
used. These forms helps in assessing the cost (charge) of the service rendered. It
will also serve as the record for the servicing company, which can be used as
reference for future servicing job with the same client. Service record can also be
used as cross reference in requesting materials, tools and equipment.
Every Service Report has an issue number or control number assigned to it.
This is to identify the work done. This control number will be the reference to all
documentation done related to the job like requisition of supplies, materials, tools
and equipment.
In this part you are to fill-up the name of the customer, the contact number,
the address and the date you finished the service.
Job Done
In this part of the service record, you tick on the type of service you rendered
that costumer.

Authentication
This part of the service record indicates the authenticity of the document. You
as servicing need to sign this part as proof that you rendered the service stated at
the Job Done Section, indicating also your certification number to prove that you are
qualified. In the other hand, the owner or customer needs also to sign his name as a
proof that he receives the service you rendered. A control number is added to this
part which serves as reference to every document you have done

Learning Objective: At the end of the session the trainee should be able to
make a job report.
After reading the importance of making a job report and identifying the
different parts of a job report, your task now is to practice filling up a service report.
Scenario:
In the process of installing the unit, you have used hoses, sealant (foam),
metal screws (8 pcs) and steel brackets. The sealant was provided by the owner.
The rest of the materials were provided by your company.

Similar with the problem above, we divide 0-10 into to two (2) graduations.
Between 0 and 10 is 5, therefore the value of the sub-graduation between 0 and
10 is 5. This means that each graduation away from zero has the value of 5. So
we can count the graduation as 0, 5, 10.

Value of the sub-graduation = 5
We know from our activity earlier that the center graduation has the value
of 5. We can also see that there are five sub-graduations from the area of 0 to 5.
This means that the value 5 is divided into 5 graduations, making the value of
each sub-graduation 1. How did it happen?
Imagine five (5) apples to be distributed to five (5) kids. How many apples
will each kid have if we distribute the apples equally for 5 kids? Each kid will have
five apples.

Given:
The sub-graduation between 5 and 10 is 2.5 greater than 5 and 2.5 less
than 10. How does this happen?
We can always assume that the value of any sub graduation between 5
and 10 is always greater than 5 and less than 10. The difference between 5 and
10 is 5. If we divide 5 into two parts then we will have the value of 2.5. Therefore,
based on the illustration, every graduation from 5 is 2.5 making the value of the
sub-graduation 7.5.

Introduction:
Analog measuring instruments convert electrical energy into mechanical
movement of a particular device which will enable user to interpret the implication of
that energy by using meter scale.
In multi-meter, the electrical energy will drive a pointer that will point a

a numerical value.

necessary.

that the pointer rest from 0 to

case the pointer does not

what the multi-tester can

Voltmeter is an instrument used to measure supply voltage in a power
source. The multi-tester can measure both Alternating Current Voltage and
Direct Current Voltage.
1. In measuring voltage in a circuit, make sure that the circuit has power on
it.
3. In measuring known voltage, set the voltmeter range a little bit higher than
the voltage source for accurate measurement.
4. Do not touch the metallic part of the multi-tester’s test probe or bared
