Question 167Refrigeration & AC - Assistant Engineer
70% to passWhat is the maximum volume to which refillable refrigeration cylinders should be filled?
A60% full
B70% full
C80% full
D90% full
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) 80% full. Refillable refrigeration cylinders should be filled to a maximum of 80% of their total volume. This is based on regulations set by the U.S. Coast Guard to ensure the safe handling and storage of these pressurized containers. Filling them to a higher percentage could lead to dangerous pressure buildup and potential rupture, which would pose a safety hazard. The other options, 60%, 70%, and 90% full, are not the correct maximum fill level according to the applicable regulations.
