What device would be considered a non-modulating expansion device?
a capillary tube
A CPR valve is used to protect the compressor from?
B. high load pull-downs
C. amperage load over RLA
What happens to the gauges if there is a high refrigerant charge in a system using a capillary tube?
both the suction and discharge gauges will indicate a high pressure
An overcharge with this type of device will cause a decrease in evaporator superheat?
capillary tube
The liquid receiver service valve could be used to?
*A. charge refrigerant into the system
