vacuums? - ....ANSWER...The motor relies on the flow
of refrigerant through the compressor for cooling
When evacuating the system the use of an oversized
vacuum could cause.... - ....ANSWER...Trapped water
to freeze
What is the best use for testing with soap bubbles? -
....ANSWER...Pinpoint refrigerant leaks
Which condition can cause excessive pressure on
the high side of a self contained (active) recovery
device? - ....ANSWER...When there is a large volume
,of non condensible gas in the refrigerant being
recovered
Why should the oil be removed from a low pressure
system at 130 degrees Fahrenheit? -
....ANSWER...Less Refrigerant will be contained in

from an R-410a unit. What must be done before
recovery? - ....ANSWER...Change the recovery

evacuation level that should be achieved before
charging the system? - ....ANSWER...500 microns
,Why are flammable HFO refrigerants classified as
A2L and not A2? - ....ANSWER...They have low
flammability, being less flammable than HC
refrigerants.
Which of the following statements is true? -

What happens when EPA regulations change after a
technician is certified? - ....ANSWER...The technician
has a responsibility to keep up with changes in EPA
regulations
When shipping refrigerant cylinders, they should be
stored ________ - ....ANSWER...upright
