← ScienceWhich risk significantly increases when a refrigeration system's operating cycle becomes prolonged?
A)Compressor motor winding overheating occurs✓
B)Refrigerant subcooling becomes significantly reduced
C)Evaporator coil frosting decreases system efficiency
D)Condenser fan motor cavitation risk decreases
💡 Explanation
Prolonged compressor operation causes overheating because the winding insulation breaks down during excessive ELECTRICAL RESISTANCE, triggering a short circuit. Therefore, motor overheating increases, rather than other refrigeration issues, because cooling is insufficient when the cycle stretches.
