the new York city fire code, you must ensure that the containers:
Answer: Are approved by the US department of transportation
◉ Which of the following best describes how the cylinder unloader
work?
Answer: Keep in the suction valve opened while the compressor is in
the return stroke
◉ In most semi hermetic compressors, the suction vapor is used to:
Answer: Cool the motor
◉ The amount of refrigerant that flows through the orifices of a
economizer is determined by the:
,Answer: Difference between the high side and load side pressure
◉ The installation of an inline refrigerant cleaning system is
advisable:
Answer: To remove impurities from the system
◉ The type of refrigerant system that is least likely to leak
refrigerant into the building space that are cooled
Answer: The indirect system
◉ The suction pressure of a reciprocating compressor is 65PSIG. the
discharge pressure of this compressor is 120PSIG. the atmospheric
is 14.7 PSI. the compression ratio for the given condition is closet to:
Answer: 1.69

Answer: Dry vapor above the saturation temperature
◉ A refrigerant engineer verifies that a condenser water pump is
cavitating. of the following the most likely cause for this condition is:
Answer: A faulty cooling tower water level controller
◉ A centrifugal water pump is known as a lift pump when the:
,Answer: The water supply to the pump suction inlet is below the
pump level
◉ A TXV is used to maintain constant:
Answer: Evaporator superheat
◉ The chilled water supply to the building is 55F. if the chiller is
being used for human comfort, should you be concerned about this ,
and why?
Answer: Yes, this temperature is too high for human comfort
purpose
◉ The packing gland of a centrifugal pump serves to:
Answer: The drip part of the packing gland gives evidence that there
is water in the pump
◉ Capacity control of a reciprocating hermetic compressor is
typically achieved through
Answer: Operation of the hot gas bypass valve
◉ The most important reason to sub-cool the refrigerant in the
condenser is to ensure that:
Answer: A pure liquid refrigerant will enter the metering device
, ◉ A refrigeration engineer is logging reading from a reciprocating
system. compressor discharge temperature have dropped
significantly and the suction line pressure is high. which of the
following that may be causing this set of condition.
Answer: An expansion valve that is open to wide

Answer: The level of the refrigerant in the evaporator
◉ Regarding fire safety, which ASHARE refrigerant safety
classification indicates no flammability and lower the toxicity?
Answer: A1
◉ When an expansion valve is operating properly, at the end of the
evaporator will contain:
Answer: Only superheated vapor
◉ What information is not contained in a material safety data sheet-
MSDS?
Answer: Cost of material
◉ In a steam turbine, what is the function of the kingsbury thrust
bearing
Answer: Maintain axial positioning of the rotor shaft
