Why is my Central Pneumatic Air Compressor building pressure too slowly?
- BBrandon DawsonAug 19, 2025
If your Central Pneumatic Air Compressor is building pressure too slowly, there are a few potential causes. First, verify that the circuit matches the compressor's requirements. The working environment might be too cold, so move the compressor to a warmer location. A safety valve might be leaking; listen for air leaking from the valve and replace it with an identical valve if necessary, but do not seal or tamper with the safety valve. Finally, loose fittings could be the issue; reduce air pressure, check all fittings with a soap solution for air leaks, and tighten as needed, being careful not to overtighten.
