Why does my EKOM DK50 Air Compressor often switch on?
- O
  Oscar AndersonAug 18, 2025
  Your EKOM Air Compressor might be frequently turning on due to several reasons. It could be caused by an air leak in the pneumatic distribution system, which means you should check the system and seal any loose joints. Another cause might be a leaking non-return valve; in this case, try cleaning the valve, replacing the seals, or replacing the entire valve. Finally, a large volume of condensed liquid in the pressure vessel could be the reason; try draining the condensed liquid.

What to do if my EKOM Air Compressor does not start?
- M
  Mark BookerAug 21, 2025
  If your EKOM Air Compressor isn't starting, there could be several reasons. First, check the voltage in the socket, as there might be no voltage in the pressure switch. Also, inspect the fuse and replace it if it's faulty, as the winding of the motor might be disconnected, or the thermal protection might be damaged. Another possible cause is a faulty capacitor, which would need replacement. In case of seizure of the piston or another rotary part, replace the damaged parts. Finally, check the function of the pressure switch, because it might not be switching on, or it could be switched to the “0“ position.

Why is my EKOM Air Compressor running for a prolonged time?
- A
  Amanda JonesAug 23, 2025
  An EKOM Air Compressor running for a long time can stem from several issues: an air leak in the pneumatic distribution system (check and seal loose joints), a worn piston ring (replace it), a contaminated filter (replace it with a new one), or a defective solenoid valve (repair or change the valve).

How to fix a noisy EKOM DK50 Air Compressor (knocking, metal noises)?
- J
  Jeffrey RiveraAug 26, 2025
  If your EKOM Air Compressor is making knocking or metallic noises, it might be due to a damaged bearing of the piston, piston rod, or motor bearing, in which case you should replace the damaged bearing. Another possibility is a loose or cracked spring, which would also require replacement.

Why won't my EKOM DK50 Air Compressor start?
- C
  Cynthia HernandezAug 28, 2025
  Your EKOM Air Compressor might not start due to several reasons. First, check if the main circuit breaker in the distribution is turned off. Then, ensure the electrical supply is connected and the voltage is correct. Also, verify that the terminals in the distribution box are securely fastened. If these steps don't resolve the issue, inspect the pressure switch for proper function and terminal connections; replace it if damaged.

What to do if my EKOM Air Compressor switches on and off frequently without using air?
- L
  Lisa HodgesAug 30, 2025
  If your EKOM Air Compressor cycles frequently without air consumption, it could be due to several issues. Begin by checking the pneumatic distribution for air leaks and tighten any loose connections. Next, inspect the reverse valves for tightness, cleaning them if necessary, and replace if damaged. Also, examine the solenoid valves for leaks after regeneration and clean or replace if needed. Finally, check the pressure switch and safety valve for tightness and proper function; clean or replace them if they are faulty.

How to improve the performance of my EKOM DK50 if the cycle of operation is prolonged?
- H
  hsimmonsSep 2, 2025
  If your EKOM Air Compressor's performance is reduced and the cycle takes longer, start by checking the aggregate bonds for tightness and tighten any loose ones. Replace worn piston rings. Replace any damaged sealing material between the cylinder head and valve board, and tighten it. Finally, replace any contaminated input filter and prefilter with new ones.

What to do if some aggregates of EKOM DK50 Air Compressor don't start but the signal light is on?
- M
  Michael LopezSep 4, 2025
  If some aggregates of your EKOM Air Compressor don't start but the signal light is on, it could be due to a few reasons. First, check the network voltage to ensure there is an electric energy supply to the engine. Next, inspect the contactor, time relay (for 3 or more aggregates), and thermal relay (for 3 aggregates on top of each other), replacing any damaged components. Also, check and fasten any released terminals on the engine's terminal board, replacing any broken ones. If these don't work, the engine winding or thermal protection might be damaged, requiring a motor replacement. Lastly, check for seized pistons or other movable parts, and replace any damaged parts.

How to prevent my EKOM Air Compressor from overheating?
- C
  Christine JacksonSep 9, 2025
  To prevent your EKOM Air Compressor from overheating, ensure the room has sufficient aeration to provide suitable surrounding conditions. If the compressor aggregate's cooling valves or cooler aren't working, exchange the false blowers. If the problem persists, exchange the false thermal switch.

Why is the drying unit of my EKOM DK50 Air Compressor noisy?
- D
  Donald DavisSep 12, 2025
  If the drying unit of your EKOM Air Compressor is noisy, it could be due to a false solenoid valve, which should be replaced. Alternatively, the damping substance in the condensate tank may be damaged and needs replacement. Another possible cause is a damaged pressure hose, which also needs to be replaced.
