Why won't my Chicago Pneumatic CPF 175 start?
- S
  Selena BernardAug 15, 2025
  If your Chicago Pneumatic Air Compressor doesn't start, it could be due to several reasons. First, ensure the main switch is closed. If that's not the issue, check the circuits for a missing phase. Also, inspect the fuse and replace it if necessary. Insufficient voltage at the motor terminals can also prevent starting, so verify the voltage and connections. Finally, if the compressor is under pressure, examine the vacuum device and the minimum pressure valve for water-tightness, replacing the device if needed.

Why is my Chicago Pneumatic CPF 175 Air Compressor overheating?
- M
  Michelle HallAug 18, 2025
  If your Chicago Pneumatic Air Compressor is overheating, there are several potential causes. The ambient temperature might be too high, in which case you should create openings or install ducts to improve ventilation. An obstruction in the oil cooler can also cause overheating, so clean the coolers. Also, check and top-up the oil level if it is too low. Finally, a blocked oil circuit could be the culprit, so ensure the oil filter is clean, drain and replace the cartridge, and check the tightness of the connections.

What to do if the safety valve keeps opening on my Chicago Pneumatic CPF 175 Air Compressor?
- R
  Rachael PatrickAug 21, 2025
  If the safety valve on your Chicago Pneumatic Air Compressor is opening, it could be due to several reasons. One potential cause is the need to clean or change the oil separator cartridge. Another issue could be a valve of suction box out of use or not closed, so check the valve, piston, and joints of the suction box. Also, a faulty pressure switch, sensor, or solenoid valve could be the problem, so verify that these components are in good working order. Also the working pressure can be too high.

Why does my Chicago Pneumatic CPF 175 stop when the motor protection unit trips?
- J
  Joshua VillarrealAug 26, 2025
  If your Chicago Pneumatic Air Compressor stops when the motor protection unit trips, it could be due to a compressor motor overload. Ensure it is properly connected and that all electrical connections are tight. Also, check the compressed air pressure and the pressure switch settings. Another potential cause is phase unbalance, so check the phase intensities.

Why is my Chicago Pneumatic CPF 175 Air Compressor using so much oil?
- M
  Mark SpencerAug 28, 2025
  If your Chicago Pneumatic Air Compressor has excessive oil consumption, it could be due to a blocked oil retainer, so check the oil return pipes. Also, look for oil leaks and rectify them. Finally, a faulty oil separator element could be the cause, so replace the oil separator cartridge.

Why is the delivery pressure too low on my Chicago Pneumatic CPF 175 Air Compressor?
- D
  David LunaAug 31, 2025
  If the delivery pressure of your Chicago Pneumatic Air Compressor is too low, it might be due to incorrect pressure settings, so adjust the pressure accordingly. Also, if the desired output exceeds the compressor's capacity, check for consumption and possible leaks. A closed suction valve could also be the issue, so inspect the solenoid valve, pressure switch, and valve. Finally, if you have a modulating adjustment option, the release nozzle might be incorrectly adjusted, so check its setting.

Why is the compressed air output so low on my Chicago Pneumatic CPF 175 Air Compressor?
- B
  benjamin88Sep 4, 2025
  If the compressed air output of your Chicago Pneumatic Air Compressor is too low, it could be due to a blocked air filter, so clean it. Another potential cause is a malfunctioning adjusting solenoid valve, so check its setting.

How to reduce excessive noise from my Chicago Pneumatic Air Compressor unit?
- W
  Walter AndersonSep 7, 2025
  If your Chicago Pneumatic Air Compressor unit is making excessive noise, it could be due to loose fixing bolts on the compressor or motor, so tighten them. Soundproof panels might also be incorrectly closed, so ensure they are properly secured. Finally, transport retainer blocks (red parts) might not have been removed, so remove them.

What to do if my Chicago Pneumatic Air Compressor stops randomly or creates non-existing faults?
- P
  Patricia GraySep 12, 2025
  To address random stops or non-existent faults in your Chicago Pneumatic Air Compressor, it may be necessary to add an interference suppression kit due to electromagnetic disturbance on the electronic controller. Contact the after sales department for assistance.
