Air Compressor troubleshooting

Equipment malfunctions can lead to costly downtime. Air compressors are vital for many industrial and manufacturing processes. It's important to know how to quickly fix common air compressor issues to minimize downtime.

Here are some quick tips to diagnose the problem and how to fix it:

1. Check your power supply Make sure you have a working air compressor and that it is connected properly to the power source. Also, make sure the circuit breaker on the air compressor has not been tripped.

2. Check your air filter. A dirty air filter will reduce the compressor's efficiency and can cause it to overheat. Replace the air filter according to the maintenance interval.

3. Check oil levels: Low oil can cause the compressor overheat or to seize. Check and replenish the oil regularly.

4. Check your pressure settings.Incorrect settings may cause the compressor not to start or run continuously at the desired pressure. Consult the manual to determine the proper pressure settings.

5. Check valves and hoses : A leaky valve or hose can cause the compressor to lose pressure, or even stop working. Check and fix any leaks within your compressed air system. Contact your local Atlas Copco representative for leaks on the compressor. Atlas Copco experts can use AIRScan to detect and fix leaks within your compressed air system.

6. Consult your manual. The manual will provide you with additional troubleshooting advice to help identify the cause of the issue.
