← TechnologyWhich risk increases when an HVAC technician uses an improperly calibrated refrigerant leak detector?
A)Underestimation of total environmental emissions✓
B)Overcharging system, causing compressor damage
C)Premature filter-drier saturation from moisture
D)Inefficient heat transfer across condenser coils
💡 Explanation
When improperly calibrated, a refrigerant leak detector gives inaccurate readings leading to underreporting of leaks, which causes an underestimation of total environmental emissions because smaller leaks go undetected. Therefore emission underestimation rises, rather than compressor damage, saturation or inefficient transfer each require different root causes.
