CFC Type 3

EPA 608 Type 3 Flash Cards

QuestionAnswer
Who keeps the records of leak inspections and for how long? The owner or operator of the equipment is responsible of keeping the records and should be kept on file for 3 years.
what is considered an (IPR) Industrial process refrigeration? If a company uses 55% of its systems cooling capacity to one of its manufacturing lines or refrigeration and 45% of its cooling capacity to air condition the office spaces.
How many pounds of refrigerant exceeds the threshold leak? If an appliance with 50 or more pounds of a regulated refrigerant has exceeded the threshold leak rate,the owner has 30 days to repair the appliance.
Do an ozone-depleting refrigerant need to be removed or mothballed? No, an appliance using an ozone-depleting refrigerant does not need to be removed or mothballed by storing in a warehouse at the facility.
Do you use a trace amount of the refrigerant for leak detection? Yes, when necessary dry nitrogen with a trace of the system's design refrigerant should be used for leak detection.
Can a system greater than 15 pounds total charge be used? No, EPA regulations prohibit use when appliance contains over 15 pounds of refrigerant.
How many months do the owner or operator or have to retire a leaking appliance? The owner has 18 months to retire a leaking appliance if the replacement appliance will use a refrigerant exempt from the venting prohibition.
What should you look for while inspecting hermetic systems? You should look for traces of oil when first inspecting an hermetic system.
What will happen if you cool the recovery cylinder? It speeds the recovery process or removal of refrigerant charge from a system.
Where is the refrigerant receiver located? It is typically located in the liquid line.
What is used to determine if a tube is leaking? A hydrostatic tube test kit.
Because a low-pressure system operates below atmospheric pressure (in a vacuum), leaks in the gaskets or fittings will cause what to enter the system? Air and moisture.
What is the maximum test pressure when leak testing a low-pressure centrifugal chiller with nitrogen? 10 psig.
Why do low-pressure chillers require purge units? Because they operate below atmospheric pressure.
What does high head pressure indicate? It indicates air in a low-pressure system and that the purge unit may not be operating properly.
What could happen if a leak test was done on a low-pressure refrigeration chiller with nitrogen in excess of 10psig? It could cause the rupture disc to fall.
How does moisture most frequently enter the refrigerant system in low-pressure chillers? Through leaks from areas with gaskets or fittings.
If a chiller with a charge of 200 lb of an ozone depleting refrigerant has passed the initial verification leak test a follow up test must be conducted within how many days? 10 days
The use of a severely oversized vacuum pump could cause what to happen? Trapped water to freeze when evacuating/dehydrating a system.
When removing refrigerant oil what should it be heated to? 130 degrees F
