• Conduct service and maintenance activities on IR Ammonia single and double stage systems, adhering to operational philosophies.
• Commission, service, and troubleshoot refrigeration systems and gas compressor units, with a preference for experience with Sabroe, Gram, and Frick units.
• Perform testing, commissioning, and service on Danfoss valves and control systems commonly used in JCI industrial refrigeration systems.
• Overhaul reciprocating screw compressors, preferably with experience on SABROE, GRAM, Frick, and YORK compressors.
• Possess refrigeration knowledge and experience in controls and instrumentation, including an understanding of relay-based controls, PLCs, DCS systems, and compressor unit controllers such as Unisab, Gramatic, and Quantum.
• Familiarity with process cooling equipment commonly used in petrochemical industries, including systems utilizing propane, Propylene and R134a refrigerants.
• Maintain a basic understanding of the hazards associated with ammonia, propane, and H2S gases.
• Handle, report, and communicate effectively with food and beverage and PRS customers.
• Installation Oversight: Supervise and coordinate the installation process of refrigeration equipment to ensure it aligns with design specifications and quality standards.
• Pre-Commissioning Checks: Conduct thorough inspections of the installed systems to confirm that all components (compressors, condensers, evaporators, etc.) are properly installed and free from defects.
• System Testing: Perform performance testing of refrigeration systems, including checking for leaks, verifying capacity, and ensuring operational parameters are met under various conditions. Calibration: Adjust and calibrate control systems, sensors, and instrumentation to ensure accurate monitoring and effective system control.
• Operational Training: Provide training to operational personnel on the safe and efficient operation of the refrigeration systems, ensuring they understand maintenance procedures and emergency protocols. Documentation: Prepare and maintain comprehensive documentation, including test results, commissioning reports, and as-built drawings, to facilitate future maintenance and troubleshooting. Troubleshooting: Identify and resolve any issues or inefficiencies during the commissioning phase, working closely with other engineers and technicians to implement solutions.
• Safety Compliance: Ensure that all systems are compliant with safety regulations and industry standards, such as ASHRAE and EPA guidelines pertaining to refrigerants and safety protocols.
• Performance Optimization: Analyze system performance data post-commissioning and recommend improvements or adjustments to enhance energy efficiency and operational reliability.
  
  

How You Will Do It

The industrial refrigeration commissioning & service specialist can effectively execute his/her responsibilities by:

• Documentation Analysis: Review design documents such as specifications, schematics, and layouts meticulously to confirm that necessary factors such as thermal load calculations and refrigeration cycle designs are incorporated.
• Coordination Meetings: Organize and participate in design review meetings with stakeholders to address potential issues and clarify design intentions, ensuring all parties are on the same page.
• Integration Checks: Ensure that the refrigeration system integrates well with other systems (HVAC, electrical, plumbing) within the facility, verifying flow paths and controls.
• On-Site Supervision: Actively supervise the installation team, providing guidance on best practices, and ensuring that the installation capabilities meet specified protocols.
• Acceptance Testing: Inspect and sign off on the completion of each installation phase, ensuring standards are met before moving on to subsequent steps.
• Coordination with Other Trades: Work closely with electrical, mechanical, and plumbing teams to ensure timely and efficient collaboration without hindering progress.
• Initial System Inspections: Conduct a full walk-through of the installed equipment, checking alignment, installation quality, and compliance to design.
• Feedback Integration: Develop a system for collecting ongoing feedback from operators regarding system performance and incorporate that feedback into future commissioning and design processes.
