What to do if the air compressor is slow to use after a long time

When the air compressor has been used for a long time, the following measures can be taken to investigate and solve it:

1. Check the air filter

  • Reason: The air filter has not been cleaned for a long time, which leads to blockage and affects the intake volume.
  • Solution: Clean or replace the air filter regularly to ensure the air intake is unobstructed.

2. Check the inlet and exhaust valves

  • Reason: The inlet and exhaust valves are malfunctioning, such as the valve plate being worn, deformed or damaged, causing the valve to be unable to fully open or close.
  • Solution: Check the working status of the inlet and exhaust valves, and replace or repair them if necessary.

3. Check the gas circuit system

  • Reason: There is air leakage in the gas circuit system, such as loose pipe connections, poor sealing, etc., resulting in leaks of compressed air.
  • Solution: Check the connections and seals of the gas circuit system to ensure there is no air leakage. If there is any air leakage, repair or replace the seal in time.

4. Check the main assembly

  • Reason: Main assembly such as cylinders, pistons, piston rings, etc. are worn, resulting in a decrease in sealing and an increase in gas leakage.
  • Solution: Check the wear of the main unit, and replace or repair if necessary.

5. Check the pressure sensor and control system

  • Reason: The pressure sensor is malfunctioned or the control system is improperly set, causing the air compressor to not work normally.
  • Solution: Check the accuracy of the pressure sensor and the settings of the control system, and adjust or replace it if necessary.

6. Other possible causes and solutions

  • The belt is loose or aging: Check whether the belt of the air compressor is loose or aging, and replace it if necessary.
  • Use the wrong safety pressure valve: Make sure the safety pressure valve used meets the requirements of the air compressor and avoids problems caused by improper use.
  • Excessive carbon deposits in the gas circuit system: Regularly clean the carbon deposits in the gas circuit system to ensure smooth gas flow.

7. Contact the manufacturer or professional maintenance personnel

If none of the above methods can solve the problem, it is recommended to contact the manufacturer or professional maintenance personnel of the air compressor for more detailed inspection and maintenance.

In summary, for the problem of slow air supply after using the air compressor for a long time, it is necessary to investigate and solve it from multiple aspects. Through regular maintenance and maintenance, the service life of the air compressor can be extended and its normal operation can be ensured.
