Refrigeration & Air Conditioning USCG Question #411 (Set 9)

A liquid line solenoid valve controls refrigerant flow to the evaporator by what means?

Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option B — fully opening or closing

Solenoid valves operate on an on-off principle via an electromagnetic coil lifting a plunger. They do not modulate or throttle refrigerant flow; they either open fully to permit flow or close completely to shut it off.
