Logic4training’s ACRIB Flammable Refrigerants (A2L, A2, A3) Training Course is designed for engineers and operatives working within the refrigeration, air conditioning, or heat pump (RACHP) sectors who need to safely work with flammable refrigerants in line with ACRIB standards. The course covers the properties, applications, and safe handling of A2L, A2, and A3 refrigerants in compliance with the latest industry requirements.

This practical and theory-based course addresses the use of flammable refrigerants in accordance with the ACRIB specification. It equips operatives with the up-to-date knowledge and skills required to plan, install, service, and decommission cooling systems using A2L, A2, and A3 refrigerants. Emphasis is placed on best practice, safety, regulatory compliance, and the recognition of hazards and safe working procedures.

This course is best suited to experienced refrigeration, air conditioning, and heat pump professionals who need to expand their expertise in working with flammable refrigerants or require evidence of competence for industry compliance.

Upon successful completion of this course, operatives will hold the LCL Awards Level 3 Award in Understanding the Properties and Use of Flammable Refrigerants in Accordance with ACRIB Specification (A2L, A2 and A3) Qualification.

FAQ's

Your F-Gas qualification (Category 1 or 2) is essential for handling fluorinated gases and preventing their release into the atmosphere. However, it does not specifically cover the significant safety risks associated with the flammability of alternative refrigerants like propane (R290) and “mildly flammable” A2Ls like R32. These refrigerants are increasingly being used in Heat pump, AC and Refrigeration equipment with the plan to start phasing out R32 next year. This course addresses those specific hazards, covering the knowledge required for compliance with health and safety legislation (e.g., DSEAR, Health and Safety at Work Act). It is the recognised industry method for demonstrating competence in safely handling flammable refrigerants.
