Simple troubleshooting of screw air compressors

In our daily use of air compressors, we may encounter some simple faults. Here are some examples to illustrate how to troubleshoot some simple faults:


1. The machine does not start: check the main switch and power cord, check the motor;


2. The machine does not load after starting: adjust the pressure switch setting value or replace the pressure switch, check or replace the solenoid valve;


3. The compressor does not unload, and the safety valve is released: adjust the pressure switch setting value or replace the pressure switch, check or replace the solenoid valve;


4. Excessive oil consumption: use the recommended oil, lower the oil level to the normal position, remove the return oil pipeline for cleaning, and replace the oil-gas separator filter element;


5. The exhaust pressure is lower than the specified value: reduce the gas consumption or increase the compressor, check the system leakage, clean or replace the intake filter element, replace the oil-gas separator filter element, check or replace the solenoid valve, repair the intake control valve, replace the belt, and adjust the pressure switch setting value.
