Why pro.point Air Compressor pressure relief valve opens?
The pressure relief valve may open because the tank pressure exceeded normal operating pressure or the pressure switch is stuck. Replace the pressure switch to resolve this issue.
Why pro.point Air Compressor pump is knocking?
A knocking sound in the compressor pump can be caused by a loose engine pulley or compressor flywheel (retighten pulley and flywheel, check alignment), low oil level in the pump crankcase (keep oil at proper level at all times), or excess carbon on valves or top of piston.
What to do if my pro.point Air Compressor pump is slow to build tank pressure?
If your air compressor pump is building tank pressure slowly, you can try the following: adjust the belt tension, correct any air leaks, replace the head gaskets, replace the reed valves, clean or replace the intake element, replace the regulator, or replace the pressure relief valve.
What to do if my pro.point Air Compressor has low discharge pressure or does not stop?
If your compressor has low discharge pressure or doesn't stop, try the following: * Close the drain valve. * Tighten or replace any leaking fittings or connections, being careful not to overtighten. Check the air hose and replace parts if needed. * Clean or replace the air filter element(s). * Decrease the amount of air used. * Check the air requirement of the accessory. If it's higher than the CFM and pressure supplied by the compressor, you need a larger compressor. * Immediately replace the tank; do not attempt to repair it. * Replace seals or gaskets. * Replace the piston ring or cylinder.
What causes excessive current draw trips circuit breaker in pro.point Air Compressor?
Excessive current draw that trips the circuit breaker in your air compressor may be due to low voltage or motor overload, or the drive belt being too tight, or restricted air passages. Check that the power supply is adequate and that the compressor is on a dedicated circuit. Readjust the belt tension. Inspect and replace transfer tubes or check valve, as required.
What to do if my pro.point Air Compressor is overheating?
If your air compressor is overheating, relocate it to an area with cool, dry, well-circulated air, ensuring it is at least 12 inches (30.5 cm) from the nearest wall. Also, clean all cooling surfaces thoroughly and replace transfer tubes and/or the unloader.
Why pro.point Air Compressor motor will not run?
The motor may not run if the tank pressure exceeds the preset pressure switch limit. The motor will start automatically when tank pressure drops below the cut-in pressure. Other potential causes include a stuck check valve (remove and clean or replace), wrong wire gauge in the power line (check for proper gauge for distance between power source and compressor), loose electrical connections, paint spray on internal motor parts, or a defective motor.
Why my pro.point Air Compressor stalls?
Your air compressor may stall due to a low voltage motor (furnish adequate power), a bad check valve (replace the check valve), or a seized pump.
How to fix air leaks from regulator or regulator not regulating pressure in pro.point Air Compressor?
If there are air leaks from the regulator or it does not regulate pressure, it may be due to dirty or damaged regulator internal parts. Replace the regulator or its internal parts.
How to prevent pro.point Air Compressor from not starting in cold temperatures?
To help your compressor start in cold temperatures, open the drain valve when starting the motor, use synthetic, non-detergent air compressor oil suitable for low temperatures, or move the compressor to a warmer location.
