← TechnologyWhich risk increases when a refrigeration system uses a refrigerant blend with zeolite desiccant?
A)Stratification due to component fractionation✓
B)Overheating caused by excessive lubricant
C)Corrosion because of acid formation
D)Freezing resulting from water contamination
💡 Explanation
When using refrigerant blends, zeolite desiccant can preferentially adsorb certain components because refrigerant fractionation modifies liquid composition, potentially causing stratification. Therefore stratification risk is the most elevated, rather than overheating, corrosion, or freezing, which arise from different contamination mechanisms.
