BITZER UK is rolling out a new series of training courses on compressor technology, designed to get refrigeration technicians up-to-speed on the latest technical advances and electronics solutions.
The one-day courses, being held at the company's UK headquarters in Milton Keynes, will cover modern screw compressors, reciprocating compressors, and condensing units, plus the application of inverters and IQ modules.
The courses are based on a combination of classroom and hands-on sessions, and draw on the wealth of expertise across both BITZER UK and Green Point UK, the company's remanufacturing and services arm.
Liam Davies, BITZER UK's technical manager, who is heading up the programme, said: "Compressor technology and related control systems are advancing rapidly, and it is essential for installers and service technicians to keep abreast of the latest developments. Today's focus on decarbonisation, energy efficiency and lower-GWP refrigerant options require up-to-date knowledge of the latest tech and how to apply it effectively.
"The new courses will provide a solid grounding for hands-on practitioners, and give them the knowledge and skills to work confidently with modern technology and deliver the best result for customers."
The use of advanced electronics – to control, monitor and optimise refrigeration systems – is an area of particular interest today, given the system efficiency and man-power productivity gains possible. Reflecting this, a dedicated course will focus on the new technology available, and how IQ Modules can help transform service operations via connection to BITZER's Digital Network (BDN).
Sessions will take place between December 2025 and March 2026, avoiding the summer spike in workload for contractors and service companies. Courses include refreshments and lunch, with allocated parking available for delegates.
In addition to the scheduled courses at Milton Keynes, the company also offers the option of training for larger groups at customers' premises, and bespoke training tailored to specific requirements.
