NEWS The London Refrigeration Society posts new talks T
he London Refrigeration Society (LRS) has released its list of meetings and speakers for 2017 / 2018. The LRS is a society of active refrigeration engineers with hands-on experience, with a history going back 50 years. The Society meets socially during the cooler months for updates in technology, legislation and information on associated products. The current venue is in South East London at The Greenwich Tavern, with the meetings scheduled on the second Thursday of the month from September to April from 7.30pm until 9.30pm.
Brendan O’Reilly of the LRS said: “It is very informal and it’s a great society for your staff to belong to.”
The LRS was formed in the 1960s following the demise of the Refrigeration Serviceman’s Association. Its aims are to help engineers keep abreast of the latest developments in air conditioning and refrigeration. As the gases carbon dioxide, methyl chloride, sulphur dioxide
and ammonia fell from grace, the ‘non-smelly’, ‘non-fl ammable’ and ‘totally safe’ R12 and R22 compounds came into common use and the membership grew.
The LRS is still comprised of hands-on engineering folk interested in improving knowledge of refrigeration and air conditioning, and is affi liated with the Institute of Refrigeration. Mr O’Reilly added: “We hope, through the keenness of new comers to the trade, we will still be around for another 50 years, helping to pass on our knowledge, and encouraging suppliers and manufacturers to share their expertise with the active guys at the sharp end.”
