As the pressure on a liquid is increased, the vaporization temperature of the liquid
A: Decreases
B: Increases
,C: Remains unchanged
D: Varies - ANSWERB: Increases
An oil separator must be mounted
A: Level
B: Below the compressor crankcase

D: In the suction line - ANSWERA: Level
Which of the following metering devices controls evaporator pressure?
A: Thermostatic expansion valve
B: Fixed orifice
C: Low side float
D: None of these - ANSWERD: None of these
An automatic expansion valve controls evaporator pressure.
The purpose of the external equalizer on a thermostatic expansion valve is
A: To equalize evaporator pressure drop with respect to the TEV
, B: To equalize the evaporator pressure drop
C: To help prevent liquid floodback
D: To allow the high side pressure to equalize to the low side when the compressor cycles off -
ANSWERA: To equalize evaporator pressure drop with respect to the TEV
The higher the MERV rating of a filter-drier, the
A: More efficient the drier at absorbing moisture
B: Less efficient the drier at absorbing moisture
C: Smaller the particles the filter can entrap
D: MERV does not apply to filter-driers - ANSWERD: MERV does not apply to filter-driers
Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value - MERV ratings are used to rate the ability of an air conditioning
filter to remove dust from the air as it passes through the filter. MERV is a standard used to measure
the overall efficiency of a filter. Higher MERV ratings mean fewer dust particles and other airborne
contaminants pass through the filter. Filters with a merv rating of 9 to 12 are used in commercial and
industrial applications and will stop particles in the 1 to 3 micron range. These filters are a great
choice for home owners who want the best dust control possible. When using filters with Merv 9
ratings and above it is important to clean or replace them when recommended by the manufacturer
because they will have a negative effect on air flow when they become dirty. This can lead to
performance problems and decreased operating efficiency. The most efficient filters have merv
ratings of 13 to 16 and will stop particles as small as .3 microns. These filters are used in hospitals
and other super clean environments.
Zeolite is used with
A: Refrigerant filter-driers
B: HEPA filters
