If your Paramina Air Compressor motor won't start, first check the power supply and compressor fuses, terminal connections, and wire leads, as a faulty electric circuitry could be the cause. Also, consider that a thermal switch might be enabled.
What to do if Paramina MISTRAL M6-EM does not attain final pressure?
If your Paramina Air Compressor is not reaching the final pressure, it could be due to several reasons. Start by checking and tightening the condensate drain valve and fittings to ensure they are not leaking. Inspect the final safety valve to ensure it is clean and properly adjusted, as premature opening can cause this issue. Also, check the intermediate pressures, regulate or replace valves if the final safety valve’s safety lock opens prematurely. Other potential causes include excessive piston clearance (replace and regulate again), leaking interstage safety valves (check and replace), and worn final stage piston rings (check and replace).
Why is there oil residue/oil smell in delivered air from my Paramina Air Compressor?
If you notice oil residue or smell in the air delivered by your Paramina Air Compressor, several factors could be responsible. Ensure proper maintenance of the final filter by servicing it and renewing the BA cartridge. Verify that you are using the correct type of oil. If the activated carbon is saturated, renew the BA cartridge. Also, inspect the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd stage piston rings and cylinders for wear, and replace them if necessary.
Why has the performance of my Paramina MISTRAL M6-EM decreased?
If your Paramina Air Compressor's performance has decreased, several issues could be the cause. Begin by checking and cleaning or replacing the air intake filter if it's blocked. Then, inspect the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd stage valves to ensure they are properly closed, and check the intermediate pressures. Also, check the power supply fuse box if the power supply voltage is unstable. Other potential issues include worn piston rings or cylinders (replace), leaking pipes (tighten and reseal), solenoid valves stuck open (clean or replace), wrong cable diameter or long cable (check or replace), and leaking interstage safety valves (check or replace).
What causes my Paramina MISTRAL M6-EM to run too hot?
If your Paramina Air Compressor runs too hot, ensure there's sufficient fresh cooling air supply and that the ambient temperature is under 40 ºC. Check and clean the intake or outlet valves, replacing them if necessary, as they may not be closing properly. Verify the compressor's rotation direction matches the arrow indication. Also, check the oil level and replenish if low.
What should I do if the interstage safety valves are releasing on my Paramina Air Compressor?
If the interstage safety valves on your Paramina Air Compressor are releasing, it could be due to several reasons. If the 1st stage safety valve is released, the 2nd stage valves may not be closing properly, so check and replace the valves. If the 2nd stage safety valve is released, the 3rd stage valves may not be closing properly, so check and replace the valves. Additionally, a stuck 2nd or 3rd stage piston (replace) or a blocked sintered filter of the 2nd or 3rd stage separator (clean or replace) could be the cause.
