The accumulator is usually between the... - ANSWER Compressor and evaporator
An oiling system in a large centrifugal system should consist of at least... - ANSWER Reservoir, pump and
distribution lines
In an evaporator that chills brine, the greatest cooling effect on the brine results from the... - ANSWER
Boiling of low pressure liquid
The flow of weak liquor to the absorber is controlled by
A) gas pressure
B) throttling device
C) float valve
D) pressure of the strong liquor pump - ANSWER B) throttling device
The best way of detecting ammonia brine is by using
A) CO2 gas
B) potassium of lime
C) Nessler reagent
D) carbonate of soda - ANSWER C) Nessler reagent
The best time to purge an ammonia plant with 250 lbs. of ammonia is
, A) during shut-down, because you will lose ammonia
B) while charging the plant
C) during operation
D) none of the above - ANSWER C) during operation
What will make the strong liquor in the absorber decrease?
A) expansion valve open too much
B) A decrease in evaporator load
C) An increase in evaporator load
D) Too much steam on the generator - ANSWER B) A decrease in evaporator load
Which of the following statements is incorrect?
A) A service valve is a key-operated shut-off valve used during shipment, installation and repairs
B) Brine is a liquid cooled by refrigeration and used for the transmission of heat
C) A fusible plug has a set-temperature fusible member to relieve pressure
D) A rupture member automatically ruptures at a predetermined temperature - ANSWER D) A rupture
member automatically ruptures at a predetermined temperature
Oil in a refrigerant should
A) have a high pour point
B) have a low flash point
C) have a high viscosity
D) not contain moisture - ANSWER D) not contain moisture
In an NH3 dry expansion evaporator with TXV and bulb clamped properly on the outlet of the
evaporator, the superheat is
A) 7 to 10° F
B) 5 to 9° F
C) 20 to 30° F
, D) 1 to 2° F - ANSWER A) 7 to 10° F
The setting of a fusible plug is
A) 280° F
B) 300° F
C) 380° F
D) 300 psig. - ANSWER A) 280° F
If the insulation was removed from the bulb of the expansion valve, what would happen? - ANSWER
Flooded evaporator —the TXV bulb opens in a range from 45 to 85° F. If the insulation was removed, the
bulb would sense the temperature in the machine room and keep the TXV open, thus flooding the
evaporator.

A refrigerant overcharge would
A) increase head pressure
B) decrease head pressure
C) decrease solution-side pressure
D) decrease discharge-side pressure - ANSWER A) increase head pressure
A dryer is generally installed with other equipment in a commercial Freon compressor system. The
recommended location of this dryer is on the
A) high-pressure line between condenser and reciever
B) suction line between evaporator and compressor
