Q

What is super heating

A

Increasing the temperature above its boiling point

IE steam that is 110’c it is 10’c super heat

A gas with a temperature rise above its boiling point

Q

Explain Sub-cooling

A

A gas changes into a liquid

Cooled below a 100’c to 90’c means 10’c sub cooling

What does the hp/lp cut out do

A

Shuts the plant down if the pressure is to high/low

17
Q

What colours are in the moisture sight glass

A

Green indicates dry (good)

Yellow indicates moisture (bad)

18
Q

3 types of defrosting

A

Natural defrost
Hot gas defrosting
Electrical heating coils

19
Q

When do electrical heating coils used

A

1 hour per day

20
Q

When are natural defrost done

A

Every 3- 6 months (normal air temp)

21
Q

When are hot gas defrosting done

A

1 hour per day 4-15 mins slots to prevent the oil cooking off

22
Q

What is used for leak detection

A

Infra red leak detection system (rlds)

Oil slicks

Spectrolyne dye and UV lamp

Snoop

Halogen leak detector

23
Q

What is stated in the Montreal protocol 1987

A

Agreement to phase out the use of harmful CFC gasses and ozone depleting substances

CFC,HCFC and Halon

24
Q

What is stated in the Kyoto Summit 1997

A

Agreement to limit and reduce greenhouse gasses

CO2, HFC’s, PFC’s greenhouse gasses

25
Q

How would oil be added by following methods

A

Sump filler cap
Hand pump
Dosing pot

26
Q

Chilled water plant provide cooling for

A

Weapons systems
Radars
Ships computer systems
Air treatment units (ATU’s)

27
Q

What does ATU stand for

A

Air treatment units

28
Q

Refrigerant hazards

A

Refrigerant gases are heavier than air and will fall to the bottom of the compartment

29
Q

What precautions should be taken when working on refrigerant phosgene gas

A

No smoking,welding, or burning near the refrigerants when refrigerant is burning it produces phosgene gas (mustard gas)

30
Q

What do you do if some one has refrigerant in their eye

A

Bathe eyes in water opening and closing to wash it out

31
Q

Advantages of hydraulics

A
Reliable 
Simple and easy to understand 
Infinite speed range 
Easily reversible 
No spark
32
Q

Disadvantages of hydraulics

A

Fire risk
Noise
Risk of contamination less efficient

33

Full face visor

34
Q

What are O rings made of

A

Fluorocarbon elastomers normally used in keelering couplings

35
Q
