3-it responds to the load change in the system
thermostatic expansion valve
installed between the compressor and the condenser,as far from the compresson as possible stops oil from entering the condenser
oil separator
device that is temperature operates the opening or closing of the metering device.inside the valve
internal equalizer (TEV)
removes moisture from system

external equalizer
a vessel or tank located in the suction line between evaporator and compressos to prevent cary over or slugging of liquid into the compressor
suction line accumulator
remove sludge,dirt,scale

installed before the compressor
filters & strainers
to check the operation and efficiency of the compressor

heat is rejected from the refrigeraton cycle by air or water at the____________
condenser
metering device for systems with coonstant load
water coolres,domestic ref

(constant preassure valve)
automatic expantion valve
remove noise & vibration
