🔍 Key Concepts

• Look closely at how many ports (connections) each valve has and how they are arranged. • A 2-position diverting hot gas bypass valve must be able to send flow to one of two downstream paths. • In refrigeration schematics, a 3‑way solenoid valve is typically used when you must choose between two discharge lines from a single source.

💭 Think About

• Which illustrated valve clearly shows one common connection and two alternative flow paths that could be selected electrically? • Which valves look more like simple on/off (2‑way) valves, and which looks designed to switch flow between two branches? • If hot gas must be directed either to the evaporator or to a bypass line, which valve body shape and port layout best matches that function?

✅ Before You Answer

• Count how many line connections each option (A–D) actually has; a diverting 2‑position valve must have three. • Identify which option includes an obvious solenoid coil and stem operating a body with one inlet and two outlets. • Eliminate any valves that appear to be manual regulating or single‑path shutoff devices, since they cannot divert flow between two separate lines.
