← TechnologyWhich outcome arises from decreased superheat in an HVAC system evaporator?
A)Compressor damage from liquid floodback✓
B)Reduced dehumidification due to coil frosting
C)Increased energy consumption from cycling
D)Lower cooling capacity from evaporator starvation
💡 Explanation
When superheat decreases, liquid refrigerant can enter the compressor because incomplete evaporation occurs in evaporator, leading to liquid floodback, damaging compressor valves. Therefore compressor damage occurs, rather than frosting, cycling, or evaporator starvation, which require different refrigerant flow conditions.
