Appliances containing 5 pounds or less of refrigerant that have been hermetically sealed and charged at the factory.

When servicing a small appliance found to be leaking it is;

not mandatory to repair the leak but it is recommended to do so whenever possible.

When using a self-contained recovery device on a CFC, HCFC, or HFC system with an operating compressor, technicians must;

either recover the refrigerant to 4 inches of mercury vacuum or 90% of the nameplate charge.

A very large refrigerant leak can cause suffocation because refrigerants;

are heavier than air and displace oxygen.

Which hydrocarbon refrigerant is approved for retrofit into existing household refrigerators? Options: HC R-600a 2 ounces or less, Blended HC R-441A, HC R-290 1 lb. or less, Hydrocarbons are not approved for retrofit applications

Hydrocarbons are not approved for retrofit applications

When installing any type of access fitting onto a sealed system, what should be done?

The fitting should be leak tested before proceeding with recovery.

Which of the following best describes low loss fittings on refrigerant recovery devices used to recover CFCs, HCFCs, and HFCs? Options: They can be either manually closed or automatically closed when disconnected to prevent loss of refrigerant from hoses., They are used to connect the recovery device to an appliance and leak only small amounts of refrigerant during use., They are used to connect the recovery device to an appliance and must be discarded after each use., They eliminate oil loss during recovery.

They can be either manually closed or automatically closed when disconnected to prevent loss of refrigerant from hoses.

When R-410A is recovered from an appliance, it;

should be recovered into a recovery vessel that is clearly marked to ensure that mixing of refrigerants does not occur.

How many access valves are needed to recover the refrigerant on a sealed system with an operating compressor that has a completely restricted capillary tube? Options: Two valves, one on the high and one on the low side of the system., Only one access valve, on the low side of the system., Only one access valve, on the high side of the system., Two valves, one at the inlet to the compressor and one at the outlet of the condenser coil.

Only one access valve, on the high side of the system.

Which of the following does NOT meet the criteria for Type 1 appliance certification? A MVAC-like system that holds three pounds of R-12., a water cooler that holds 13 ounces of R-22, a food freezer that holds 22 ounces of R-134a, A dehumidifier that holds seven ounces of R-410A

A MVAC-like system that holds three pounds of R-12.

Which condition requires accessing both the high and low side of the system for refrigerant recovery when using the system-dependent (passive) recovery process?

When the compressor does not run.

What of the following are included in EPA's definition of "small appliance?" Products fully manufactured, charged, and hermetically sealed in a factory., Products having 15 pounds or less of refrigerant., Products with compressors under ½ horsepower., Fully charged components ready for installation in a split system.

Products fully manufactured, charged, and hermetically sealed in a factory.

A passive system-dependent recovery process for small appliances;

captures refrigerant in a non-pressurized container.

Which of the following is a true statement regarding a refrigerant that can be used as a direct service 'drop-in' substitute for R-22? Options: R-134a used with a TEV, R-410A used with a TEV that has a MOP of 75psig., R-290 with a fixed orifice metering device., There is no such thing as a "drop-in" substitute.

There is no such thing as a "drop-in" substitute.

What should a technician do if the refrigerant in a recovery cylinder is suspected to be contaminated?

Turn refrigerant in for reclamation.
