Under Section 608 terminology, recovery removes refrigerant and stores it in an external container; recovery alone does not require testing or processing the refrigerant.
- A
True
- B
False
What vacuum value, in inches of mercury, is an alternative to the applicable percentage-recovery method for a small appliance?
Which appliance meets the Section 608 definition of a small appliance?
- A
An appliance assembled and charged in the field with a 4-pound refrigerant charge
- B
An appliance fully manufactured, charged, and hermetically sealed at the factory with a 5-pound refrigerant charge
- C
An appliance fully manufactured and sealed at the factory with a 6-pound refrigerant charge
- D
An appliance factory-sealed with a 5-pound charge but not charged until after installation
A technician uses recovery equipment manufactured after November 15, 1993, and the appliance’s compressor functions. What percentage recovery is required under the percentage method?
- A
80%
- B
85%
- C
90%
- D
100%
A technician plans to use system-dependent recovery equipment on an appliance with a 12-pound full charge. The equipment is not permanently attached as a pump-out unit. Is this use permitted?
- A
No; system-dependent equipment is never allowed on small appliances.
- B
Yes; its full charge is within the 15-pound limit.
- C
No; the limit is 10 pounds unless the appliance has a functioning compressor.
- D
Yes, but only if the appliance is permanently attached to the recovery device.
A small appliance’s compressor functions, and a technician is using system-dependent recovery equipment. What should the technician do to help move refrigerant?
- A
Operate the compressor to help move refrigerant.
- B
Disable the compressor so the device can move refrigerant independently.
- C
Open the refrigerant circuit and allow pressure to release before recovery.
- D
Use only a self-contained recovery device, because system-dependent equipment cannot be used with a functioning compressor.
A small appliance’s compressor is inoperative, and a technician is using system-dependent recovery equipment. Which two actions are appropriate recovery techniques?
- A
Provide access to both the high and low sides.
- B
Recover only from the low side because refrigerant cannot remain on the high side.
- C
Consider warming the appliance to encourage refrigerant movement, when appropriate.
- D
Release refrigerant from the high side to reduce pressure before recovery.
Select all statements that accurately describe small-appliance recovery-device designs.
- A
Self-contained equipment has its own means of moving refrigerant into a recovery container.
- B
Self-contained equipment relies on the appliance’s compressor to move refrigerant.
- C
System-dependent equipment relies on the appliance’s compressor or system pressure to move refrigerant.
- D
System-dependent equipment always has its own means of moving refrigerant, independent of the appliance.
At the end of service, a temporary solderless access fitting should be when appropriate.
Federal mandatory leak-rate repair timelines apply to qualifying small appliances.
- A
True
- B
False
What type of permanently attached unit is an exception to the 15-pound limit for system-dependent recovery equipment?
After servicing a sealed small-appliance system, when should a technician check for leaks in relation to charging or recharging?
- A
Check for leaks only after the appliance has been charged.
- B
Check for leaks only if the appliance uses a system-dependent recovery device.
- C
Check for leaks before charging or recharging.
- D
A leak check is unnecessary if temporary access fittings were used.
A worker is recovering refrigerant from small appliances in the waste stream as part of disposal. Explain when Section 608 certification is generally required for small-appliance service, how this worker may qualify for the federal certification exception, and what obligations still apply.
Which appliance meets the definition of a Type I small appliance?
- A
A field-assembled unit containing 4 pounds of refrigerant
- B
A unit fully manufactured, charged, and hermetically sealed at the factory with 5 pounds or less of refrigerant
- C
A unit fully manufactured, charged, and hermetically sealed at the factory with more than 5 pounds of refrigerant
- D
A unit fully manufactured and charged at the factory with 5 pounds or less of refrigerant, but not hermetically sealed
A technician removes refrigerant from an appliance and stores it in an external container without testing or processing it. Which practice does this describe?
- A
Removing refrigerant and testing it before storage
- B
Processing refrigerant so it can be reused
- C
Removing refrigerant and storing it in an external container
- D
Releasing refrigerant after removing it from the appliance
What is the first date on which recovery equipment is classified as newer equipment for the percentage-recovery method?
What numerical evacuation endpoint, in inches of mercury vacuum, is permitted as an alternative to the percentage-recovery method? Enter the number only.
A technician plans to use system-dependent recovery equipment on an appliance. Which condition makes this use permissible under the stated charge-size limit?
- A
It may be used on an appliance with a full charge of 15 pounds or less, or when permanently attached as a pump-out unit.
- B
It may be used only when the appliance contains exactly 15 pounds of refrigerant.
- C
It may be used on any appliance if its compressor is functioning.
- D
It may be used only if it has its own means of moving refrigerant into a recovery container.
Because a qualifying small appliance is below the federal mandatory leak-rate repair thresholds, a technician may intentionally vent its refrigerant.
- A
True
- B
False
