    What causes condensation in crank case of Clarke VE18A150?

      Condensation in the crankcase of your Clarke Air Compressor, especially in 2-stage compressors, can be caused by the compressor being over-dimensioned. This means operational periods are too short relative to resting periods. Try frequent oil changes and reduce cooling of crankcase.

      If your Clarke Air Compressor's electric motor is too hot, ensure that the operational voltage is not too low (call an electrician) and that the cooling fins of the electric motor are not blocked by dirt (clean the cooling fins).
