Question

Two technicians are discussing refrigerant lines. Technician A says that line connections must be tight but not so tight that air can't get through. Technician B says that all connection O-rings have to be replaced when retrofitting a system to R-134a. Who is correct?

Answer 1

B is right...............

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer is: technician B, all connection O-rings have to ve replaced when retrofitting a system to R-134a.

Explanation:

When we have a refrigerant line, the refrigerant is used through a refrigeration cycle. Refrigerant should pass in a physical process of transformation, it should be pure, avoid another kind of phenomena.

When we are retrofitting a system to R-134a, it is thus necessary to change all connection O-rings. In that way, we can prevent the refrigerant of crossed contamination with other refrigerants or substances.

Let's analyze the opposite situation, if we do not change the O-rings and we change the refrigerant, probably there will be a few previous substances, which can react, or create other phenomena when they undergo the refrigeration cycle with the R-134 a. We have to avoid this situation.
