What’s wrong with the air compressor not getting air

The air compressor is not air-loaded may be caused by a variety of reasons. The following are some common reasons and solutions:

  1. Pipe leakage: Long-term use or lack of maintenance may cause cracks or poor sealing of some pipelines of the air compressor, causing gas leakage. The solution is to carefully check all pipe connections and possible cracks, confirm whether there is any gas leakage, and replace aged or damaged pipes in time.

  2. Increasing gas consumption: As the production scale expands, the gas consumption may gradually increase, and the original air compressor gas production may not be able to meet the demand. At this time, it can be evaluated whether the current gas consumption exceeds the design capability of the air compressor. If there is indeed a problem of insufficient gas consumption, you can consider adding an air compressor to meet the needs.

  3. Ne aging or failure: The machine head is the core component of the air compressor, and its performance directly affects the compression effect of the gas. If the machine head shows wear, looseness or other signs of failure, contact the manufacturer for repair or replacement in time.

  4. Clogged air filter: The air filter is used to filter impurities in the air. Long-term failure to clean it may cause blockage. The solution is to clean the filter element regularly. If the filter element cannot be cleaned, replace it with a new filter element.

  5. Solar valve failure: If the solenoid valve has power input but does not operate during loading, it means that the solenoid valve may have a fault. At this time, the solenoid valve needs to be cleaned or replaced. At the same time, it is also necessary to check whether the solenoid valve core of the air compressor is not closed tightly and to be inspected or replaced in time.

  6. Control system relay damage: This may cause the air compressor to fail to receive signals normally or perform mode switching. You should find a professional master to inspect and repair.

In addition, there are some other possible reasons, such as wear of the air compressor rotor, failure of the pressure switch, leakage of the pressure relief valve, and damage to the motor or insufficient power. All of these problems may cause the air compressor to be out of air.

To sum up, the reasons why the air compressor does not get air may involve multiple aspects, and it needs to be investigated one by one and taken corresponding solutions. If you cannot resolve the problem yourself, it is recommended to contact a professional repairman or equipment manufacturer to repair or replace parts.
