← TechnologyWhich consequence can result due to refrigeration system icing?
A)Compressor lubrication starvation.✓
B)Reduced superheat temperature.
C)Decreased condenser subcooling.
D)Increased expansion valve flow.
💡 Explanation
Icing causes compressor lubrication starvation because the refrigerant vaporizes poorly, flooding the compressor with liquid refrigerant; therefore, proper lubrication degrades, rather than subcooling changes or increased expansion, to safeguard the compressors.
