Question 8Refrigeration & AC - 1st Asst/Chief

The correct answer is A) Vegetable refrigeration box is holding the correct temperature but the vegetables are dehydrated and frost is observed on the vegetable box evaporator coil back to the back pressure regulator. This is the correct answer because if the back pressure regulator is set too low, it will cause the evaporator coil temperature to drop too low, leading to dehydration of the vegetables and frost buildup on the coil. The low back pressure also indicates the refrigeration system is not operating at the optimal pressure and temperature, even though the box may be holding the correct temperature. The other answer choices are incorrect because high discharge pressure (B), low suction pressure (C), and short-cycling (D) are not direct indicators that the back pressure regulator is set too low. These would be symptoms of other issues in the refrigeration system.
