How to troubleshoot a DV Systems Air Compressor that won't start?
- MmelissafryeAug 21, 2025
If your DV Systems Air Compressor won't start, several factors could be at play. First, ensure the unit is receiving power by checking the disconnect or breaker and any fuses. Wiring connections should be tight and correctly placed according to the wiring schematic. Also, check if the Emergency Stop Button has been pressed; if so, release it. The motor overload might have tripped, requiring a reset. Overheating or over-pressure can also cause the compressor to stop; ensure sufficient airflow, appropriate ambient temperature, and a clean heat exchanger. Check the oil level and solenoid valve. Lastly, the unit may have timed out if the pressure hasn't dropped below 100 psi; in this case, lower the pressure and reset the unit. A power interruption could also be the cause; reset the unit.
