This standard defines the essential theoretical and practical knowledge necessary for the different levels of competence, creating a solid basis for the comparison (in particular at the Europ
6、ean level) of the level of training and the qualification and skills profile of persons involved in refrigeration technology. National vocational training schemes in Germany (such as refrigeration technician or refrigeration mechatronics engineer apprenticeships, and, at a higher level, advanced qua
7、lification and certification programmes in refrigeration and air-conditioning engineering) as well as degree courses in refrigeration and air-conditioning technology, provide the basis for the knowledge and skills described in DIN EN 13313. Amendments This standard differs from DIN EN 13313:2002-03

DIN EN 13313:2011-02 EN 13313:2010 (E) 4 Introduction Refrigerating systems, if not properly constructed, installed, operated and maintained, can be of danger to the health and safety of persons, the safety property, be detrimental
24、to the environment and increase the energy consumption. It is therefore essential that personnel dealing with such systems are competent to carry out the activity, or activities, listed in this standard. These activities cover the particular sectors in which they may operate from original design to
25、final dismantling and disposal. As job descriptions can vary from country to country and from company to company, this standard specifies the activities to be carried out. Job descriptions should specify these activities. This standard defines the activities related to the refrigerating circuit. DIN
26、 EN 13313:2011-02 EN 13313:2010 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard defines the activities related to refrigerating circuits and the associated competence profiles and establishes procedures for assessing the competence of persons who carry out these activities. NOTE As a refrigerating circuit is c
27、onsidered not to incorporate electrical and electronic systems, activities in this area are not part of this standard. For competences on electrical and electronic systems, it is recommended to refer to national regulations or appropriate European or national standards. This European Standard does n
28、ot apply to persons carrying out work on self contained refrigerating systems as defined in EN 378-1 from the initial design of the product to the complete manufacture of the product, provided the process is controlled and the methods used are checked by an organisation or individual, responsible fo
29、r the compliance with statutory requirements on health, safety and environment. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
