Apex Technical School |
This set of
five DVDs effectively presents the superior hands-on
information contained in the 5th Edition of
Refrigeration and Air Conditioning
Technology for successful maintenance and troubleshooting of
today's complex heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration
systems.
Intended for use as a supplement
to classroom lessons, these DVDs include theory-related topics and
practical, step-by-step skill that combine to provide an invaluable
resource.
All aspects of HVAC-R industry
are covered, from basic heat theory and the pressure enthalpy chart
to the laws of physics that govern the behavior of solids, liquids,
and gases.
Special safety considerations are
addressed throughout with dedicated coverage highlighting personal
safety and dress, equipment and tool safety, and the governmental
agencies that help ensure safety on the job.
A favorable blend of theory,
diagnostics, and repair procedures makes this DVD set a fitting
complement to basic HVAC-R education, as well as upgrading and
certification training for technicians in the field.
Features:
-
each DVD contains 4 separate 20-minute videos, each
covering a separate topic
- concepts presented in the basic
refrigeration process segment are designed to foster a strong
foundation that will help viewers master subsequent lessons in the
series
- an entire tutorial on refrigerant
management, system evacuation, and charging provides a condensed
yet comprehensive compilation of refrigerant-related issues
paramount to industry today
- viewers breeze through the concepts of
electrical theory with the help of five complete lessons that
discuss a range of electricity-related topics, from Ohm's law, to
basic controls for specific HVAC-R systems
- state-of-the-art coverage of the
refrigeration process includes compressors, condensers, and
metering devices, as well as special system components and typical
operating conditions for high, medium, and low temperature
refrigeration applications
- other topics include heating equipment and
controls, commercial refrigeration, indoor air quality,
refrigeration as it applies to air conditioning, domestic
appliances, cooling towers, and more
- typical operating conditions,
troubleshooting, system installation, and required maintenance
information to keep these systems up and running round out the
comprehensive coverage.

About the
Author:
Eugene Silberstein, a member of ASHRAE and
RSES, graduated with dual bachelor’s degrees from CCNY in New York
City, New York. He has been involved in all aspects of the HVAC/R
industry from field technician and system designer to company owner,
teacher, administrator, consultant and author.
Mr. Silberstein was an instructor at Apex
Technical School in New York City, where he taught classes on basic,
domestic and commercial refrigeration, basic electricity and major
home appliances, commercial air conditioning and advanced air
conditioning topics. He later went on to become the chairman of the
refrigeration department and the educational supervisor of that
institution. In addition to teaching at the post-secondary level,
Mr. Silberstein has taught air conditioning, heating and plumbing at
the high school level at Nassau BOCES in Westbury, New York.
His technical credits include authoring Heat
Pumps, providing technical reviews and writing educational
supplements for Refrigeration and Air
Conditioning Technology, 4th and 5th Editions, writing
production scripts for educational videos accompanying
Electricity for Refrigeration, Heating
and Air Conditioning, 6th Edition and
Refrigeration and Air
Conditioning Technology, 5th
Edition, writing computerized test banks and lecture slides
for Johnson Controls’ Building
Environments: HVAC Systems, among others.
Mr. Silberstein is also a consulting engineer
and contributor to the HOTLINE column in the HVAC industry’s
Refrigeration News. He also sat on the committee that drafted the
standards on which this book is based. Mr. Silberstein is currently
writing other industry related books including Blueprint Reading for
Electricians and is presently directing and teaching a new A.A.S.
degree program in HVAC/R at Suffolk County Community College in
Brentwood, New York.
