Why does my Paramina Air Compressor run too hot?
- J
  James DouglasAug 14, 2025
  If your Paramina Air Compressor runs too hot, there are several potential causes. First, ensure there is sufficient fresh cooling air supply by checking the location and inlet air suction, maintaining an ambient temperature under 45 ºC. Also, check and clean the intake or outlet valves, replacing them if necessary. Verify the compressor's rotation direction against the arrow and correct it if wrong. Finally, check the oil level and replenish if low.

Why has the performance of my Paramina Air Compressor decreased?
- J
  James BatesAug 17, 2025
  If your Paramina Air Compressor's performance has decreased, consider these potential causes: a blocked air intake filter (clean or replace it), valves not properly closed (check the intermediate pressures), worn piston rings or cylinders (replace them), leaking pipes (tighten and reseal), solenoid valves stuck open (clean or replace them), or an unstable power supply (check the power supply fuse box).

What causes the main motor protection to activate on a Paramina Air Compressor?
- A
  Alicia EvansAug 21, 2025
  If the main motor protection has activated on your Paramina Air Compressor, it could be due to an unstable power supply, so check and stabilize it. Another cause may be high power consumption due to motor faulty wiring, motor overload via bearings, compressor block overload or high inlet pressure.

Why does my Paramina Air Compressor not attain final pressure?
- G
  greenecherylAug 26, 2025
  If your Paramina Air Compressor is not attaining final pressure, there might be a leak in the condensate drain valve or fittings, so tighten and reseal them. Other potential causes include premature opening of the final safety valve (clean and readjust), excessive piston clearance (replace and regulate again), the final safety valve’s safety lock opening prematurely (check the intermediate pressures, regulate or replace valves), leaking interstage safety valves (check or replace), or worn final stage piston rings (check or replace).

Why is there oil residue/oil smell in the air delivered by my Paramina Air Compressor?
- B
  Brandon ThomasAug 28, 2025
  If you notice oil residue or smell oil in the air delivered by your Paramina Air Compressor, consider these factors: improper maintenance of the final filter (service the filter and renew the BA cartridge), using the wrong type of oil (use the right type of oil), saturated activated carbon (renew the BA cartridge), or worn piston rings or cylinders (check and replace if necessary).

What causes the motor to start with difficulty in my Paramina Air Compressor?
- S
  Stuart JuarezSep 1, 2025
  If your Paramina Air Compressor motor starts with difficulty, first check and stabilize the power supply to address any instability. Also, pressure may remain in the stages because of too short time between stop – start, so check drains function. High inlet pressure may be the reason, so check inlet valve and inlet pressure regulator setting. Finally, check star/delta function because star-delta switching may be incorrect.

What causes safety valves between individual stages to release pressure in my Paramina Air Compressor?
- A
  Alan HudsonSep 5, 2025
  If the safety valves between individual stages of your Paramina Air Compressor are releasing pressure, several issues could be the cause. If the 1st stage safety valve is released, the 2nd stage valves may not be closing properly, so check and replace the valves. Similarly, if the 2nd stage safety is released, the 3rd stage valves may not be closing properly, so check and replace the valves. Other causes may be stacked 4th stage piston (replace it), blocked Sintered Filter of 3rd stage separator (when 2nd stage safety valve opens, so clean or replace the filter), blocked Sintered Filter of 4th – final stage separator (when 3rd stage safety valve opens, so clean or replace the filter).

What should I do if my Paramina Air Compressor has the wrong rotation direction?
- P
  Patrick JenkinsSep 9, 2025
  If your Paramina Air Compressor has the wrong rotation direction, it is likely that the phases are reversed. To correct this, change the phases.
