UEENEEI102A - Solve problems in pressure measurement components and systems
Overview
This unit covers setting up pressure measuring components and systems and providing solutions to pressure measurement problems as they apply to various process and control work functions. It encompasses working safely, setting up and calibrating pressure measuring components and systems, problem solving techniques, the use of a range of measuring devices, providing solutions derived from measurements and calculations to predictable problems in pressure measurement components and systems.
Assessment
For Melbourne campuses
Assessment tasks will be designed to reinforce and extend knowledge and skill competence within set and controlled parameters in accordance with each unit’s learning outcomes and performance criteria requirements, including 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 and knowledge:
- pressure measurement terms and transducers;
- manometers;
- absolute, gauge and atmospheric pressure measurement;
- mechanical pressure measuring devices;
- electrical pressure measuring devices;
- dead weight testers;
- testing and installation of pressure measurement devices, and;
- pressure transmitters and converters.
Required reading
The qualified trainer and assessor will provide teaching and learning materials as required in the form of workbooks produced by the Polytechnic and/or via the Polytechnic e-learning system.
