The marine refrigeration training course covers the principles of refrigeration and air conditioning for the marine and offshore industry. The first two days look at the theory of thermodynamics, the vapour compression cycle, energy efficiency and the repair process. The next two days are fully practical, and you will be trained on how to repair marine refrigeration systems to industry standards. The final day is exams.
