The CD, which features more than 1,500 slides, as well as answers to all review questions, is an excellent tool for instructors who have extensive knowledge in the field and who seek an outline as part of a program for preparing students to take the NATE Commercial Refrigeration Exam. Topics covered on the Preparing for the NATE Exam: Commercial Refrigeration Instructor CD include: electrical fundamentals; refrigeration fundamentals; refrigeration equipment; refrigeration components; electrical components; regulations, code, and design; installation; service and maintenance; large commercial refrigeration systems; and more.

RSES has also released a new SAM Chapter 650-018, Section 6B, “Relays, Contactors, and Starters,” written by John Lattuca, CMS, Tecumseh Products Company LLC.

SAM is the oldest HVACR reference manual available in the industry. It contains thousands of pages of technical data, equipment analyses and evaluations, field application instruction, regulations, good practice codes, business development guidance and more. SAM is a great resource to obtain knowledge in 25 categories and 45 subcategories of HVACR-related topics.
