Question 38Refrigeration & AC - QMED
70% to passLoss of refrigerant during the process of purging of air and non-condensable gases can be kept to a minimum by what action?
The correct answer is D) cracking the purge valve briefly and allowing the refrigerant to re-settle between purges. This is the correct answer because briefly cracking the purge valve and allowing the refrigerant to re-settle between purges helps minimize the loss of refrigerant during the process of purging air and non-condensable gases. By allowing the refrigerant to re-settle, less refrigerant is expelled from the system during each purge cycle, reducing overall refrigerant loss. The other options are incorrect because they do not directly address the key factor of minimizing refrigerant loss during the purging process. Purging through different valves or components may help with the purging process, but do not specifically target the issue of refrigerant loss.
