🔍 Key Concepts

• Function of a dehydrator/drier in a refrigeration system • Effects of moisture inside a refrigeration system (ice formation, corrosion, acid) • Normal maintenance actions vs. specific moisture-removal components

💭 Think About

• Which component in a refrigeration system is specifically designed to capture and hold moisture from the refrigerant? • Would opening drains or removing liquid from separators/condensers reliably remove dissolved moisture throughout a closed system? Why or why not? • In a closed refrigeration circuit, how does the system normally deal with small amounts of moisture that get inside during servicing or leakage repairs?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice refers to a component whose primary purpose is to remove moisture from refrigerant. • Eliminate any options that are more related to oil removal or liquid draining, not moisture control. • Ask yourself: in standard refrigeration schematics, where is the moisture-removal device located and what is it called?
