This includes their principles of operation and more common problems. Some of the components covered are: pumps, compressors, directional control valves, actuators, fl uid conditioning devices, pressure control valves, conductors and sealing devices. HYDPNU-336 Credits: 4 Fluid Power Circuits This course begins with instilling an understanding of hydraulic/pneumatic circuits and their schematic symbols. Building on those skills, students then explore electrically/electronically relay logic circuits and their components. The student builds skills through written and hands-on lab assignments designed to simulate real- world systems and the skills to install and troubleshoot them. HYDPNU-338 Credits: 4 Mechanical Systems This course teaches the fundamentals of mechanical transmission systems and allows for the practice of industry-relevant skills including how to operate, install, maintain, troubleshoot and design basic mechanical transmission systems using chains, V-belts, spur gears, bearings and couplings. The installation, operation and applications of laser shaft alignment will be taught. INDSGN – Interior Design (Department: 304) INDSGN-100 Credits: 3 Introduction to Interior Design Course presents an overview of the fi eld of interior design. Course will cover the principles and elements of design. Pencil and ink sketching techniques will be explored to obtain a comfort level with loose drawing and quick sketches. Shade shadow and color will be introduced as hand-rendering techniques. Students will be introduced to the concept and construction of the interior design presentation board, both manual and digital methodology. INDSGN-102 Credits: 3 Basic Architectural Drawing This course will introduce students to basic manual and computer-aided drawing for interior design. Students will learn how to properly use equipment and produce two- dimensional drawings. Credits: 5

Due to concerns for both comfort and energy conservation, there is a need for technicians who have current training in the installation, troubleshooting and repair of heat pump equipment. Prerequisite(s): Complete HVAC1-300 or HVAC2-115. HVAC2-149 Credits: 1 HVAC Summer Internship This course is designed to place students with active HVAC/R contractors in Wisconsin in temporary summer hire positions. This provides students with the opportunity to apply learned skills to actual job-site situations. This course is open only to associate degree program students and is subject to prerequisites. A total of 192 hours of on-the-job experience is required to complete this course. Prerequisite(s): Complete HVAC2-109, HVAC2-110, HVAC2- 113, HVAC2-114, HVAC2-115 and HVAC2-120. Consent of instructor is required. HVAC2-150 Credits: 2 Wiring Diagram Interpretation for HVAC/R This course is designed to enhance the student’s ability to interpret modern wiring diagrams for HVAC/R. The curriculum provides instruction on the usage, design and interpretation of wiring diagrams such as the schematic, pictorial, installation and hybrid. Instruction will include the interpretation of actual equipment wiring diagrams, as well as designing wiring diagrams. Prerequisite(s): Complete HVAC- 114 or ELECTY-396 and ELECTY-398.

Refrigeration 1 Studies and calculations are made of the basic refrigeration cycle using the Mollier Diagram. The operation of the major parts is discussed, along with the use of service tools such as gages, meters, vacuum pumps, and refrigeration recovery. Prerequisite(s): Complete HVAC2-110 and HVAC2-113. HVAC2-116 Credits: 4 Refrigeration 2 Studies and calculations are made of commercial and industrial refrigeration systems, along with the design and selection of equipment. Meters and service tools are used to diagnose and troubleshoot compressors, coolers, ice makers and freezers. Prerequisite(s): Complete HVAC2-115. HVAC2-120 Credits: 4 Heating Systems 1 This lecture and laboratory course on forced- air systems covers the principles of gas and oil combustion units. Also included are large industrial complex designs and their practicability, with emphasis on variable volume, dual duct and multitype systems. Prerequisite(s): Complete HVAC2-110 and HVAC2-113.
