Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
This occupation involves assembling compressors, heat exchangers, piping, etc., of industrial cooling equipment based on drawings and preparing for test runs.
Description
Cooling cycle assemblers assemble compressors, condensers, evaporators, various valves, and piping that constitute industrial cooling equipment according to mechanical drawings. They use tool operations, welding, and brazing techniques to manage tightening torque, apply insulation materials, and conduct airtightness inspections on piping. After assembly, they perform test run adjustments, check for refrigerant leaks and functionality, and prepare for delivery to installation sites. Work is primarily team-based in factories or on-site, requiring awareness of safety management and quality control.
Future Outlook
With strengthened energy-saving measures and environmental regulations, demand for industrial cooling equipment is steadily increasing. Advancements in automation and IoT technologies require the acquisition of advanced assembly and adjustment skills.
