← TechnologyWhich operational problem arises when an evaporator's superheat setting is configured too low in a refrigeration system?
A)Compressor damage from liquid floodback✓
B)Reduced cooling capacity from coil icing
C)Increased energy consumption from cycling
D)Premature component failure from oil dilution
💡 Explanation
When superheat is too low, liquid refrigerant can enter the compressor because the evaporator isn't fully vaporizing it, leading to liquid floodback and potential bearing or valve plate damage. Therefore compressor damage results, rather than icing, cycling, or oil dilution, which arise from different operating conditions.
