Maintenance of Chillers

Introduction:

Maintenance of chillers refers to the institutional frameworks that govern the reliability, efficiency, and lifecycle of cooling systems used in industrial and commercial facilities. Its importance lies in ensuring operational continuity, energy efficiency, and compliance with safety and environmental standards. It reflects structured methods that connect mechanical, electrical, and control components within a unified governance framework. This training program presents models, processes, and analytical structures that define chiller maintenance from operational oversight to long-term sustainability.

Program Objectives:

By the end of this program, participants will be able to:

• Analyze institutional frameworks that govern the operation and maintenance of chillers.
