To Next PageTo Next PageWhy is my Corken 91 Air Compressor overheating?
Your Corken Air Compressor may be overheating due to several reasons. The valves might be broken, stuck, or leaking, or the piston ring could be worn. High inlet or ambient temperature, a high compression ratio, or an unbalanced load could also cause overheating. Dirty cooling fins can also contribute to this problem, so clean them weekly.
What to do if Corken 91 has low capacity?
If your Corken Air Compressor has low capacity, it could be due to several reasons. The valves might be broken, stuck, or leaking, so you should inspect and clean or repair them. A worn piston ring could also be the cause; inspect and replace it if necessary. Additionally, check for a clogged inlet strainer and clean or replace the screen if needed. Finally, inspect the piping for leaks and repair them.
Why is my Corken Air Compressor vibrating excessively?
Excessive vibration in your Corken Air Compressor can stem from several issues. The valves may be broken, stuck, or leaking, or the flywheel or belt might be loose. Worn wrist pins, wrist-pin bushings, or connecting-rod bearings could also be the cause. An unbalanced load, an inadequate compressor base, or improper foundation/mounting can also lead to excessive vibration. To address these issues: * Inspect and clean or repair valves. * Tighten the flywheel or belt. * Replace worn wrist pins, bushings or connecting-rod bearings. * Strengthen, replace, or grout the compressor base. * Tighten the mounting or rebuild the foundation.
What causes knocks, rattles, and noise in a Corken Air Compressor?
Knocks, rattles, and unusual noise in your Corken Air Compressor can be caused by several factors. The valves might be broken, stuck, or leaking. A loose flywheel or belt, worn wrist pin or wrist-pin bushing, or a worn connecting-rod bearing could also be responsible. An unbalanced load could also be the cause. To resolve these issues, inspect and clean or repair the valves, tighten the flywheel or belt, and replace any worn wrist pins, bushings, or connecting-rod bearings.
What to do if my Corken 91 motor is overheating?
If your Corken Air Compressor motor is overheating or the starter is tripping, several factors could be responsible. Low voltage, incorrect motor wiring, or wires that are too small for the length of the run can cause these issues. Other potential causes include incorrect power characteristics, the wrong size of heaters in the starter, compressor overloading, a shorted-out motor, or a bad motor bearing. You can reduce speed in case of overloading. For other issues, consult with a power company or see driver installation.
What causes abnormal piston-ring wear in a Corken 91?
Abnormal piston-ring wear in your Corken Air Compressor can be caused by broken, stuck, or leaking valves, or a worn piston ring. High inlet or ambient temperatures and a high compression ratio can also contribute to this issue. An unbalanced load may also be a factor. Inspect and clean or repair valves, and inspect and replace the piston ring if necessary. For temperature, compression ratio and load issues, consult factory.
Why is there product leaking through the crankcase breather of my Corken Air Compressor?
If product is leaking through the crankcase breather of your Corken Air Compressor, it is likely due to a worn piston-rod packing. Replace the worn piston-rod packing to resolve this issue.
Why is there oil leakage around the base of my Corken 91?
Oil leakage around the base of your Corken Air Compressor can be caused by leaking gas blowing oil from the crankcase or a bad oil seal. Try tightening the packing. If that doesn't solve the problem, replace the bad oil seal.
What causes product leakage in a Corken Air Compressor?
Product leakage in your Corken Air Compressor can be due to leaks in the piping or a worn piston-rod packing. Inspect and repair any leaks in the piping, and replace the worn piston-rod packing.
Why is there oil in the cylinder of my Corken 91?
If there is oil in the cylinder of your Corken Air Compressor, it is likely due to a worn piston-rod packing. Replace the worn piston-rod packing to fix this issue.
