    James WilliamsAug 21, 2025

    If your EKOM Medical Equipment compressor doesn't start, there might be an issue with the electrical power source. First, ensure the main breaker is on. Check the voltage in the socket and inspect the fuses, replacing any that are faulty. Also, tighten any loose terminals and check the electrical cord for defects, replacing it if necessary. If these steps don't resolve the issue, the motor or capacitor might need replacement, or there could be damaged parts that need attention.

    Andrea DiazAug 22, 2025

    If you notice low output pressure in your EKOM Medical Equipment compressor, first, ensure that the working or output pressure settings are correctly adjusted. Check the compressed air distribution system for leaks and seal any loose joints. Avoid exceeding the maximum flow indicated in the Technical Data. If the problem persists, the piston assembly or element might need replacement.

    If your EKOM Medical Equipment compressor's motor has stopped and the thermal motor protection has tripped, start by checking if the ventilation openings are covered and uncover them. If the cooling fans aren't working, replace the defective fan. Ensure suitable environmental conditions for the equipment. If issues continue, replace any damaged parts.

    If your EKOM Medical Equipment compressor's performance is low, start by adjusting to the stipulated pressure if the working or output pressure settings are incorrect. Check the compressed air distribution system for air leaks and seal any loose joints. Ensure you do not exceed the maximum flow as detailed in the Technical Data. You may need to replace worn piston rings or a contaminated element.

    Rebecca McgeeAug 30, 2025

    If water is leaking from the outlet of your EKOM Medical Equipment, ensure the hose from the equipment is not too long or lying on the ground; shorten it if necessary. You may need to clean or replace the float system. Also, ensure that the working or output pressure settings are correctly adjusted to the stipulated pressure and that you do not exceed the maximum flow, as detailed in the Technical Data.

  Why my EKOM DK50 DE does not start?

  

  Same questionReply

    Charles MendozaAug 31, 2025

    If your EKOM Air Compressor is not starting, it could be due to several reasons. Firstly, the compressor is designed to start in STANDBY mode when the pressure decreases. If that's not the case, check if the main breaker in the distribution system is switched off. Other potential issues include a defective fuse, a loose wire terminal, or a defective power cord, all of which may require replacement or tightening. In more serious cases, the motor winding might be interrupted, the thermal protection damaged, the capacitor defective or the piston jammed, which would require replacing the motor, capacitor, or damaged parts, respectively.

    Andres MorenoSep 2, 2025

    If your EKOM Air Compressor experiences low output pressure, inspect the pneumatic distribution system for any leakage and seal any loose connections. Ensure that you are not exceeding the maximum flow specified in the technical data. Other potential causes include worn out piston rings, a dirty air suction filter, or dirty filter elements. Replace the worn piston rings, the dirty air suction filter, or the dirty filter elements to resolve the issue.

    To address low performance in your EKOM Air Compressor, start by inspecting the pneumatic distribution system for air leakage and seal any loose connections. Ensure that your consumption of compressed air does not exceed the maximum flow specified in the technical data. Also, check for worn out piston rings or a dirty air suction filter. Replace the worn out piston rings or clean/replace the dirty air suction filter as needed.

    If your EKOM Air Compressor is making unusual noises like knocking or metal sounds, it might be due to a damaged piston bearing or a bearing in the motor, or a loose/cracked belt of the air pump hanger. In such cases, you should replace the damaged bearing or the damaged hanger.
