Before a non-major repair that will not be followed by evacuation, a high- or very-high-pressure appliance must be at 0 psig before it is opened. This is not the same as applying a vacuum. True or false?
- A
True
- B
False
When a pressure test is specified for a refrigeration appliance, which gas should be used with an appropriate regulator and pressure-limiting controls?
After a refrigeration circuit has been opened and evacuated, which approach best ensures that it is recharged correctly?
- A
Add refrigerant until pressure reaches a general target, even if the specified amount is unknown.
- B
Use the specified refrigerant and amount, a scale, and the manufacturer's charging procedure.
- C
Charge with any available refrigerant, then adjust the amount based only on operating noise.
- D
Estimate the quantity by hose length and skip the manufacturer's procedure.
After opening a refrigeration circuit, technicians must it as directed by the manufacturer and applicable requirements before charging.
After returning a repaired appliance to service, which set of checks best supports confirming that it is operating as intended?
- A
Confirm only that the appliance powers on; operating conditions do not need to be checked.
- B
Check the refrigerant pressure alone and treat it as proof of overall performance.
- C
Check for abnormal noise, vibration, temperatures, pressures, and control operation, then assess performance using the manufacturer's criteria.
- D
Skip operational checks if the repaired joint appears dry while the appliance is off.
Select all statements that correctly describe how to determine applicable federal leak-repair requirements and support compliance.
- A
Applicable federal leak-repair requirements can depend on refrigerant, charge, appliance category, and date.
- B
One leak-rate threshold applies to every refrigeration appliance regardless of refrigerant or charge.
- C
Technicians should check the current requirements for the specific appliance instead of assuming that one threshold applies universally.
- D
Owners or operators have regulatory responsibilities, and technicians should provide service and test information needed for compliance.
A service report should be factual and consistent with the measurements actually taken, rather than recording results that were assumed or estimated. True or false?
- A
True
- B
False
A technician has completed a repair and is preparing a service report. Select all details that belong in a clear, useful report.
- A
Record the refrigerant type and quantities recovered, added, or otherwise transferred.
- B
Document the repair performed, pressure-test and evacuation results, and verification results when required or performed.
- C
Omit any remaining leak or test limitation if the appliance has been returned to service.
- D
Record the final system status and any recommendations or required return visit.
What is the effective date of the separate EPA requirements described for certain appliances containing at least 15 pounds of refrigerant with an HFC or specified substitute?
A pressure-decay check shows that pressure changed during a test. What conclusion should the technician draw, and what should be done to locate a leak?
- A
The check identifies the exact leak location, so no other method is needed.
- B
The check can show that pressure changed, but a leak-location method is still needed to find the leak.
- C
The check proves that no leak exists whenever the pressure change is small.
- D
The check replaces both pressure testing and leak-location methods.
When planning a leak repair, how should a technician handle sections of the appliance that are not leaking, when practical?
- A
Isolate non-leaking sections where practical.
- B
Open every section of the appliance, even if it is not involved in the repair.
- C
Leave leaking and non-leaking sections connected in every case.
- D
Bypass isolation planning and vent refrigerant from nearby sections.
Explain the difference between a leak inspection, an initial verification test, and a follow-up verification test. Include when each is generally performed and why a startup or charge check alone is not enough to confirm every repaired leak.
A technician servicing a refrigeration appliance must not intentionally release refrigerant into the atmosphere.
- A
True
- B
False
A technician needs to pressure-test a refrigeration circuit after a repair. Which approach is appropriate?
- A
Compressed air with a pressure gauge
- B
Dry nitrogen with an appropriate regulator and pressure-limiting controls
- C
Oxygen with a pressure regulator
- D
The appliance's refrigerant, regardless of the test procedure
After a pressure test, a technician observes a pressure drop. What can this result establish by itself?
- A
It identifies the exact leak location without another method.
- B
It confirms that every repaired leak is fixed during normal operation.
- C
It can show a pressure change but does not locate the leak.
- D
It proves the appliance has the correct refrigerant charge.
What is the name of the test that checks a repair after the appliance has returned to normal operating conditions?
After evacuating a repaired circuit, how should a technician determine and add the refrigerant charge?
- A
Use a scale and follow the manufacturer's charging procedure for the specified refrigerant and amount.
- B
Add refrigerant until pressure alone reaches a chosen value.
- C
Estimate the amount based on the refrigerant recovered.
- D
Use any available refrigerant and adjust by operating temperature alone.
A repaired appliance has been restarted. Which check best helps confirm that it is operating as intended?
- A
Confirm only that the appliance powers on.
- B
Check only the refrigerant pressure immediately after charging.
- C
Assume correct operation if no leak was found while the system was off.
- D
Check operating conditions and compare performance with the manufacturer's criteria.
Before opening a high- or very-high-pressure appliance for a non-major repair that will not be followed by evacuation, what pressure must it be at? Enter the value in psig.
