Application
This unit describes the performance outcomes required to install liquefied natural gas (LNG) fuel systems. It involves preparing for the task, selecting, installing, testing and adjusting the system for correct operation, and completing workplace processes and documentation.
It applies to those working in the automotive service and repair industry. The LNG fuel systems include those of agricultural machinery, forklifts, heavy commercial vehicles, light vehicles or mobile plant machinery.
Licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements may apply to this unit in some jurisdictions. Users are advised to check with the relevant regulatory authority.

Assessment Conditions
Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
Competency is to be assessed in the workplace or a simulated environment that accurately reflects performance in a real workplace setting.
Assessment must include direct observation of tasks.
Where assessment of competency includes third-party evidence, individuals must provide evidence that links them to the LNG fuel systems that they have installed, e.g. repair orders.
Assessors must verify performance evidence through questioning on skills and knowledge to ensure correct interpretation and application.
The following resources must be made available:
- automotive repair workplace or simulated workplace
- workplace instructions
- AS/NZS 2739 Natural gas (NG) fuel systems for vehicle engines
- manufacturer vehicle LNG system specifications
- one vehicle requiring installation of an LNG fuel system
- LNG installation kit, including:
- fill valve and fill hose
- fuel container and mounting
- service line
- vaporiser
- regulator
- safety lock-off devices
- mixers or injectors
- associated electrical and electronic system, including selector and safety switches
