Description
This unit of competency defines the skills and knowledge required to perform assembly and functional testing of fluid conveying components and assemblies. Conductor assemblies may apply to positive and negative pressure systems on fixed and mobile plant/equipment, including marine, heavy plant and manufacturing plant applications with system pressures range of 10.5 MPa to 35 MPa, ranging up to 70 MPa. Where interpretation of technical drawings is required unit MEM09002 Interpret technical drawing should also be selected.Where the selection and use of engineering measurement is required unit MEM12023 Perform engineering measurements should also be selected.This unit should not be selected when unit MEM18055 Dismantle, replace and assemble engineering components or unit MEM27017 Maintain, fault find and rectify hydraulic systems for mobile plant has already been selected.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.Band: AUnit Weight: 4
