UEEIC0041 Solve problems in pressure measurement components and systems

Modification History

Release 1. This is the first release of this unit of competency in the UEE Electrotechnology Training Package.

Application

This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to set up pressure measuring components and systems and provide solutions to a pressure measurement problem as it applies to a process and control work function. It includes working safely, setting up and calibrating pressure measuring components and system, using problem-solving techniques, using measuring devices, and providing solutions derived from measurements and calculations to predictable problems in pressure measurement components and systems. No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

Pre-requisite Unit
