Air compressor can not play gas (that is, air pressure can not come) is a more common problem, may be caused by a variety of reasons. Here are some possible causes and solutions:
increased 1. gas consumption
- reason with the use of air compressors, the user's air consumption may continue to increase. If the air production of the air compressor cannot meet the demand, the air pressure will not come up.
- Solution: Consider adding air compressor equipment or optimizing the efficiency of existing equipment.
2. pipeline problems
- reason: Due to the long service life or improper maintenance of the pipeline, small cracks and other problems may occur, resulting in gas leakage and pressure drop.
- Solution: Check the pipeline regularly, find the air leakage point and repair it in time. When installing or replacing pipes, high-quality pipes should be selected to reduce the risk of leakage.
3. filter element clogged
- reason: If the air filter element of the air compressor is not cleaned or replaced for a long time, it will be blocked, which will affect the air entry and cause the air pumping efficiency to decrease.
- Solution: Regularly clean or replace the air filter element to ensure unobstructed air.
Aging or failure of 4. head
- reason: The head of the air compressor is the core component, which is responsible for absorbing air and generating pressure. If the head aging or failure, it will directly affect the generation of air pressure.
- Solution: Contact professional maintenance personnel to repair or replace the machine head.
5. valve failure
- reason: Intake valve or exhaust valve failure will directly affect the compression and discharge of gas. For example, the failure to open the intake valve will cause air to not enter the cylinder; the failure to close the exhaust valve will cause the compressed gas to flow back.
- Solution: Regularly check and repair the intake valve and exhaust valve to ensure that they can be opened and closed normally.
6. piston or cylinder damage
- reason: Severe wear of the piston ring or poor sealing of the cylinder will cause gas leakage and affect the compression efficiency.
- Solution: Replace worn piston rings or cylinder seals to ensure that the cylinder is well sealed.
7. pressure switch fault
- reason: The pressure switch is used to control the start and stop of the air compressor. If the pressure switch is damaged or set incorrectly, the air compressor may not be able to correctly sense the current air pressure, thus affecting the working state.
- Solution: Check and adjust the setting of the pressure switch to ensure that it can work normally. If necessary, replace the damaged pressure switch.
8. motor fault
- reason: Motor damage, insufficient power or short circuit, overheating protection and other problems will affect the normal operation of the air compressor.
- Solution: Check and repair the motor to ensure that it can output the rated power normally.
9. belt is loose or broken
- reason: For air compressors with belt drive, loose or broken belts will reduce the power transmission efficiency or even interrupt the compression process.
- Solution: Adjust the belt tension or replace with a new belt to ensure power transmission efficiency.
10. other factors
- pressure limiting valve set too low: If the pressure limiting valve is set too low, the air pump will automatically stop when the pressure reaches the pressure limiting value and cannot continue to boost the pressure. At this time, the set pressure of the pressure limiting valve needs to be adjusted.
- Air pump seal damage: Damage to the air pump seal will cause air leakage between the high and low pressure chambers and affect the rise of air pressure. Damaged seals need to be replaced in this case.
To sum up, there may be various reasons why the air compressor cannot breathe, and it needs to be checked and repaired according to the actual situation. If the specific cause cannot be determined or the problem cannot be solved, it is recommended to contact professional maintenance personnel for inspection and repair.
