🔍 Key Concepts

• Passive recovery vs. active (machine-assisted) recovery methods • How a capillary tube metering device connects the high and low sides in a sealed system • Behavior of refrigerant flow when the compressor is not operating (no pressure differential)

💭 Think About

• Think about whether there is any pressure difference between the high and low sides when the compressor is off, and how that affects where refrigerant will collect. • Consider what role the capillary tube plays: does it restrict or allow flow between the high and low sides when the system is at rest? • Ask yourself: if you connect your recovery equipment to only one side, will you be able to effectively remove refrigerant from the entire system under passive conditions?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify how a capillary tube behaves when there is no compressor running (is it an open path or a closed valve?). • Confirm where liquid vs. vapor refrigerant tends to be located in the system during passive recovery. • Make sure the chosen method does not involve venting to atmosphere, which is prohibited under EPA regulations.
