Bryan McIntyre was already talking to military recruiters when our country was attacked on 9-11. He was one of the many brave men and women who answered the call to fight evil in Najaf and Fallujah, Iraq, so that we could remain safe and free. During his four years, Bryan served in the United States Marine Corps as a member of the 11th MEU earning the Marine Achievement Medal with Valor and a Purple Heart as a co-platoon leader. As I interviewed Bryan, I had the opportunity to experience first-hand what many Americans only hear about. Bryan is one of those silent heroes who work every day to serve his customers and team members, trying to make the world a little better. You would probably never know you just met a hero by passing Bryan on the street. Very inspiring indeed. We explored Bryan’s post-military journey in skilled trades during our conversation. Like many vets who have access to the G.I. Bill, he chose skilled trades (HVACR) over college. He shares his experience starting, like most, as a service technician and quickly moving up to his current position as a service manager. During our discussion, Byran shares that he is not an ant-college and was attracted to skilled trades for several reasons discussed in this episode.  ProcessAcademy -  https://bit.ly/3K4OgqNSkilledTradeRescue -  https://bit.ly/3NH3OmHThis episode is also distributed on most podcast networks such as Spotify and Apple Podcast. Make sure to sign up for our “JOIN THE MOVEMENT” email list to get notifications on new podcast episodes and access free workshops coming soon.  https://skilledtraderescue.com/ #skilledtrades,#hvacr,#hvaclife,#chillers,#processchillers,#hvactechnician,#hvaccontractor,#processchillersystems,#processchilleracademy,#processchillereducation,#processchillereducation,#chillers,#chillerplant,#chilledwater,#process,#chiller,#chilledwatersystem,#chillershvac,#chillersystem,#processchillers,#glycolchillertraining

Today I get to sit down with Berkin Arikan CEO of HydroMX. For decades propylene glycol (PG) and Ethylene Glycol (EG) have been the gold standards for heat transfer fluid used in many process cooling applications.  HydroMX has a potentially game-changing product entering the market now that energy efficiency and carbon footprint reduction are on the minds of many companies.  Berkin shares how HydroMX has leveraged Nano-Technology to achieve some interesting benchmarks within the thermal fluids market space.  Highlights of some of the discussion topics covered in this podcast on the HydroMX Product: ** Product can be retrofitted into an existing system running PG & EG.  ** HydroMX case studies have found a minimum of 20% improvement in heat transfer capability even at concentrations of 50%. In many cases, sites running this product exceed 30% heat transfer improvements.  ** HydroMx guarantees the performance, and some restrictions may apply. Check with HydroMX for the latest details.  ** Even at concentrations of 50% HydroMX and 50% water, there is limited to no change in process fluid pressure drop over the system running straight water.  If you are an end user of service contractor that uses or services hydronic systems running glycol, you should find this episode interesting. Disclosure statement: Processchilleracademy.com, Skilledtraderescue.com, nor Legacy Companies, LLC endorses this product.

Today I get to sit down with Ronnie Cochran, who got started a little later in his career journey in Skilled Trades. His career success started with his parents' solid work ethic instilled in him. His HVACR journey started with a casual conversation with a technician that came out to repair his AC, and well, the rest is history!He, like most, started off learning the ropes. Ronnie's infectious positive can-do attitude attracted the interest of some key mentors who helped him grow and learn. Today, Ronnie works for one of the largest skilled trade providers globally (Johnson Controls / JCI) as a chiller instructor. Video (and audio only) versions are available at these sites:ProcessAcademy.com – https://bit.ly/3JZgK4VSkilledTradeRescue.com – https://bit.ly/3M59s1cThis episode is also distributed on most podcast networks such as Spotify and Apple Podcast. #skilledtrades,#hvacr,#hvaclife,#chillers,#processchillers,#hvactechnician,#hvaccontractor,#processchillersystems,#processchilleracademy,#processchillereducation,#processchillereducation,#chillers,#chillerplant,#chilledwater,#process,#chiller,#chilledwatersystem,#chillershvac,#chillersystem,#processchillers,#glycolchillertraining

There is an old term I want to bring back to life because I think it fits well within the context of this episode in my series on PLCs. This term is “Garbage is equal to Garbage Out.” This term zero’s in on when you feed a computer bad or unexpected data, the output or result will also be bad or unexpected. Well, PLCs used in HVACR and Process Chiller equipment is no different. We will first explore what digital and analog inputs are, and I will refer to these as classes of inputs. After that, we will look at three of the most common input types within the two classes. The three specific input types we will look at are:Dry Contacts are commonly used for event confirmation.Thermistors that measure temperature.Transducers are commonly used in refrigeration machines to measure refrigerant pressure. Once you understand PLC input classes and the three most commonly used types, we will look at how to diagnose each of the input types using an ohmmeter and the hopscotch electrical diagnostic method.

So you have a PLC-controlled machine down, and you have ruled out all of the typical mechanical issues. You have also checked over the high-voltage electrical systems, and everything is in order. With that out of the way, you now need to start the process of diagnosing the PLC.  One of the technicians' most valuable skills when performing electrical diagnostics is the hopscotch electrical diagnostic method. This method makes it possible to determine the condition of PLC inputs and outputs quickly. In this episode, I will be putting up some electrical drawings and explaining the hopscotch method. #hvacr,#hvaclife,#skilledtrades,#chillers,#processchillers,#hvactechnician,#hvaccontractor,#howplcworks,#processchillersystems,#processchilleracademy,#processchillereducation,#processchillereducation,#chillers,#chillerplant,#chilledwater,#process,#chiller,#chilledwatersystem,#chillershvac,#chillersystem,#processchillers,#glycolchillertraining
