| 1.Q: What gas may be used to blow debris out of a system and should be vented to the air? A: Nitrogen. | |
| 2.Q: What is the sign of a compressor burn-out during recovery? A: A pungent odor and oil contamination. | |
| 3. Q: Why must refrigerants never be mixed in a recovery cylinder? A: Because they must be reclaimed or destroyed separately. | |
| 4. Q: What safety equipment should always be worn when working with refrigerants? A: Safety eyewear and butyl-lined gloves. | |
| 5. Q: What should be done before taking a pressure reading to check for non-condensables? A: Allow the cylinder to reach room temperature. | |
