The base unit is, dependent on the objective of the experiment, extended into complete refrigeration circuit with one of the models available as accessories (refrigerator, refrigeration system with refrigeration and freezing stage, simple air conditioning system, air conditioning). The main components of it are compressor, condenser and receiver plus electrical and communications systems. The models are plugged onto the base unit and connected hydraulically with refrigerant hoses and electrically with cables. Self-sealing couplings reduce the refrigerant loss to a minimum. All components are arranged well visible to allow their operation to be monitored. The modern and powerful software is an integral part of the training system in the form of hardware/software integration (HSI). It enables the comfortable execution and analysis of the experiments. The experimental unit is connected to the PC via a USB interface.
