Chapter 5 Fault Diagnosis and Repair
5.1 Compressor Fault Analysis
Please refer to this section for assistance with fault diagnosis and repair in the unlikely
event that any problem might occur with your air compressor.
It is important to collect the operating data of the unit routinely and systematically.
Based on this data, the operator can find any changes in the unit’s performance and
detect the potential failure.
Before repairing or replacing any components, various factors causing failures should
be analyzed in detail to find the exact reason. Don’t disassemble or move the
compressor unit in a disorderly way, otherwise unnecessary damage may be caused.
Routine inspection should be made on the following items:
a. Whether any wiring connections/terminals are loose or disconnected.
b. Whether any piping is damaged.
c. Whether any components are damaged due to over-heating or short circuiting. An
obvious telltale sign is discoloration or a burning odor.
d. Whether any air or oil leakage is evident.
e. Whether any abnormal noise is audible.
f. Whether any abnormal vibration is detectable.
g. Whether any parameters shown on the LCD display and meters deviate from their
regular values.
