What to do if motor thermal trip causes my KTC COMPACK 2 ECO to stop?
- C
  Carl VaughnAug 13, 2025
  If the motor thermal trip causes the KTC Air Compressor to stop due to the main motor being overloaded, several factors could be at play. First, verify the correct calibration of the thermal protection. Ensure the electric power supply is correct and that power cables are firmly secured to the terminal and not damaged. Also, check that the main motor ventilation is free of any fouling or foreign objects. If the oil separator differential pressure exceeds 1.0 bar, causing high system absorption, have qualified personnel check the unit.

  Victoria TurnerAug 17, 2025
  If your KTC Air Compressor stops due to the high oil temperature limit tripping, it could be due to several reasons. Try topping up the oil level first. Also, check the environmental temperature and clean the oil cooler. If the problem persists, the temperature probe may have failed and needs replacement.

  courtney06Aug 20, 2025
  If the safety valve on your KTC Air Compressor is opening, it could be due to several reasons. Ensure that the working pressure is at the correct level according to the rating plate. Overpressure in the internal circuit may also be the cause, requiring the replacement of the oil separator filter. If the oil separator cartridge is clogged, replace it. Note that if the safety valve is damaged, it should be replaced.

Why is my KTC COMPACK 2 ECO Air Compressor using excessive oil?
- R
  Regina BakerAug 25, 2025
  If your KTC Air Compressor is experiencing excessive oil consumption, it could be due to several reasons. Start by replacing the oil with one suitable for compressor operation. If the air-oil separator cartridge is spent or defective, replace it. Also, check the oil recovery window for clogs and clean or replace it if necessary. Finally, ensure the oil level is not too high; top it up until it reaches the level indicated in the manual.

What to do if my KTC COMPACK 2 ECO stops for intervention of the high pressure safety?
- T
  taylormerrittAug 28, 2025
  If your KTC Air Compressor stops due to the intervention of the high pressure safety, it could be because the pressure exceeds the alarm set point. Check the line pressure. Another reason might be that the transducer is not detecting pressure properly, in which case you should check its operation and replace it if necessary.

Why does my KTC Air Compressor run but not charge?
- S
  Stanley MillerAug 31, 2025
  If your KTC Air Compressor runs but does not charge, several issues could be the cause. Check that the transducer is connected both electrically and pneumatically, as the suction valve may not be opening. Ensure that the solenoid valve installed on the suction regulator is functioning properly, as the auxiliary power might be disconnected. Also, check the fuses for the solenoid valve installed on the terminal inside the starter itself, as the solenoid valve fuse might be blown. Lastly, inspect and replace any breaking transmission elements between the motor and the screw.

Why is my KTC COMPACK 2 ECO Air Compressor stopping because of the low temperature?
- M
  marshallkristinaSep 4, 2025
  If the KTC Air Compressor stops because of the low temperature, it may be because the oil temperature is lower than the value set on the electronic controller. Check the environmental temperature and, if necessary, use a heating resistance on the oil circuit. If the temperature probe is faulty, contact an authorized Service Centre.

How to fix oil leaking from the air filter of my KTC COMPACK 2 ECO?
- L
  Laurie EscobarSep 8, 2025
  If oil is leaking from the air filter of your KTC Air Compressor, it could be due to a high oil level. Drain the oil until the correct level is reached. It could also be a defective suction valve, in which case you should contact an Authorized Service Centre. If the compressor has been tilted excessively during transport, this could also cause oil to leak.
