8. Troubleshooting
Problem Cause Action
No Block Pulley Rotation 1.Cylinder and Piston Failure
2.Insufficient Power
* Service to manufacturer
* Check the operating power
Compressor running
Too HOT
1.insufficient supply of fresh cooling air
2.Intake or outlet valves not closing
properly
3.Wrong direction of rotation
4.Intake filter contaminated
* Check location max. ambient Temp. +45℃
* Check and clean valves, replace as necessary
* See arrow on compressor and
remedy accordingly
* Clean or replace intake filter
Fill up time is too long
1.Failure of suction valve
2.Air line leakage
3.Failure of nipple
4.Intake filter contaminated
5.Failure of unload valve
* Change valve
* Change the line with air leakage
* Check the nipple
* Clean and change of intake filter
* Applied lubrication oil
after removement of unload nipple
Abnormal noise
1.Worn down
2.Shortage of oil
3.Obstructed intake filter
* Change parts
* Supply oil
* Check intake filter
No rotation of MOTOR
1.A stoppage of electric current.
2.A break in a wire
3.Failure of motor starter
4.Bad connecting
* Check the incoming wire connection
* Check wire disconnection
* Check the contact point
* Fasten the terminal screw
* Check switch
Overheated motor
1.Overload
2.Fluctuation of Suppling Voltage
and Frequency
3.Over voltage and voltage dips
4.Bad cooling
* Check the rated current
* Check the voltage and frequency
* Clean the cooling area
Reverse rotation of
motor 1.Main power supply connection error * Check the 3 phase sequence
Can not start Engine
(In case of using engine
instead of motor)
1.Discharged battery
2.Bad contact of electric equipment
3.Failure of start motor
4.Bad connection
5.Failure of generator
* Fasten terminal screw fully
* Check switch function
* Check power cable
* Change generator
* Refer to the engine manual
Electrical error
1.Unexpected protective
function(Turn-off)
of NFB
2.Malfunctioning of Pressure switch
* Check short-circuit
* Overload(Rating and setting of overcorrect
protective devices)
* Check power wire
* Check air line
* Check selected Pressure
* Change PRESSURE SWITCH
Failure of
Auto drain valve
1.Malfunctioning of sol-valve
2.Malfunctioning of automatic drain valve
* Change SOLENOID VALVE
* Check the air line and piping and clean.
* Check the line in the wintertime against
rupture by freezing
* Check the wiring
* Check and Clean up exterior and interior
* In the wintertime, obstructed air line by freezing
(Melt by Hot air gun)
* Check air line
Failure of safety valve 1.Air Line Contaminated by Obstruct * Clean up Obstruct
* Change safety valve
AIR condensation
time is too long
1. Check the air line leakage
(Verify the air line leakage under main power
off after rise up air line pressure at 150 ㎏/㎠)
2. Check the air leak about drain during operating
condition
If there is air leakage, change SOLENOID
VALVE
3. Check the third and fourth step head and pipe
