CPCPCM3023 - Fabricate and install non-ferrous pressure piping

For Melbourne campuses

Assessment tasks will be designed to reinforce & extend knowledge and skill competence within set & controlled parameters in accordance with each unit’s learning outcomes & performance criteria requirements, incl the setting of work based practical application tasks designed to provide evidence of competence outcomes, within periodic and scheduled timelines.
Students will be expected to demonstrate the following required skills:
* fabricating, installing and testing a DN20 copper line from a supply point to three fixed outlets, supported and clipped according to relevant job plans and specification, codes, Australian Standards, manufacturer’s specifications and jurisdictional requirements with a minimum:
* one 15 mm mechanical bend
* one 20 mm mechanical bend
* one 15 mm spring bend
* one 20 mm spring bend
* one 15 mm capillary elbow
* one 20 mm capillary elbow
* one expanded silver brazed joint
* one silver brazed copper to brass joint
* two branch formed silver brazed joints
* one mechanical flared joint
* branches connecting at least two other non-ferrous materials, ensuring branches and bends are square.

Students will also be expected to demonstrate the following knowledge:
* fabrication, installation and testing process for non-ferrous pressure pipe systems
* relevant statutory authorities’ requirements and standards related to fabricating, installing and testing non-ferrous pressure pipe systems
* effect of heat and other products on the properties of polymer pipe
* types of non- ferrous materials, including joining techniques
* hot works permit
* how to access relevant information, including codes and standards
* tools, materials and brazing equipment used to fabricate and install non-ferrous pressure piping
* work health and safety (WHS) requirements to fabricate and install non-ferrous pressure piping.
