ANSWERS
____ is a near-azeotropic, refrigerant blend that has a GWP of 466. It is an
HFC/HFO blend madeup HFC-32 and HFO-1234yf. It is charged as a liquid to avoid
fractionation and has a very lowtemperature glide (about 2.5°F). correct answer
R-454B
_____ is a single-compound, HFC refrigerant that has a GWP of 675. It can be
charged as a liquid or avapor and does not fractionate or have a temperature
glide. correct answer R-32
_____ is an HFO refrigerant with a GWP of less than 1. It is primarily used in
automotive airconditioning systems but is also used as a component in many
other HFC/HFO blends. correct answer R-1234yf
__________ can activate mechanical ventilation systems, activate a solenoid to
force the system into a pump down, de-energize the system completely, or a
combination of mitigation responses using control logic electronics. correct
answer Active refrigerant sensors
