Troubleshooting, Con’t. 

 

PROBLEM 

CAUSE 

ACTION 

Status LED still glows 

red after high pressure 

condition has been 

cleared 

High pressure switch was once 

activated causing high pressure 

circuit to latch ON 

Turn unit OFF and then back ON. 

Compressor starts but 

cuts out within a few 

minutes; pressure 

indication on low 

pressure gauge is low; 

status LED is OFF 

Inlet valve is in PURGE or CLOSED 

position during recovery and low 

pressure switch activates 
Blocked intake hose 

Rotate inlet valve to RECOVER. 

 

 
Check and clear blockage. 

AC power switch is ON, 

but fan, compressor, 

and status LED are all 

OFF 

Power cord not attached 
No voltage at AC outlet 
Circuit breaker has opened 

Attach power cord. 
Verify voltage at job site. 
Identify cause of breaker 

activation, rectify and reset. 

Status LED still glows 

red after changing 

recovery tanks 

80% tank full switch has been 

activated causing tank full circuit to 

latch ON 

Turn unit OFF and then back ON. 

AC power switch is ON 

but cooling fan not 

running 

Defective fan 
Obstruction in fan blades 

Replace fan. 
Remove obstruction. 

Unit overheats 

Excessive suction pressure due to 

high ambient temperature 

Reduce inlet pressure below 

80 psi by throttling the inlet valve. 

Recovery process too 

slow 

Head pressure too high 
 
System refrigerant iced up 
 
 
Restriction in hoses or manifold 

gauge set 

Compressor seals worn 

Reduce tank temperature or 

change tanks. 
Throttle gauge manifold valves 

and discharge valves to reduce 

pressure differential between LP 

and HP gauges. 
Interrupt recovery process and 

allow ice to dissipate. 
Check and clear restriction. 
Rebuild compressor.
