Refrigeration & Air Conditioning USCG Question #468 (Set 10)

In a refrigeration system, the bulb for the thermal expansion valve is always located where?

Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option A — at the evaporator coil outlet

The thermal expansion valve sensing bulb must be securely clamped to the suction line at the evaporator coil outlet. This location allows it to accurately monitor the vapor temperature leaving the coil and calculate the true operating superheat.
