10.0 TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
10.1 Troubleshooting
If you experience problems while operating the waste compactor, please use the following table
to check for possible causes and solution before contacting Delitek AS/ Service for assistance.
Symptoms
Cause
Solution
The indicator light for “VOLTAGE
ON” on the el-panel is not lit and
the compactor does not respond
when the start button is pressed
(see fig. 8, page 10).
No voltage to the unit.
Check if the main el-cable has been
unplugged. Check if external fuses
may be blown.
Failure or breaches in main
electric cable.
An authorized electrician must inspect
the cable and plugs for breaches or
failure.
The indicator light for “VOLTAGE
ON” on the el-panel does not
light, but the compactor starts
when the start button is pressed.
The indicator lamp for
”VOLTAGE ON” is defect.
Replace the lamp.
The indicator light for “VOLTAGE
ON” on the el-panel is lit, but
compaction does not start after
pressing start button on the el-
panel.
The loading hatch is not
closed properly and the
security switch in the hatch is
not activated.
Close the loading hatch properly.
Solenoid valve or coils on the
hydraulic aggregate may be
defect.
An authorized electrician must inspect
and measure the coils on the solenoid
valve block on the hydraulic aggregate
in order to verify if the coils or solenoid
valves are defect. Contact Delitek AS
for spare parts. See chapter. 8.
The compaction force seems to
be insufficient or very low.
Problems with the source for
the el-supply.
Check that the electricity output
connection conforms to the waste
compactors specification. For instance
(440V/60Hz/3 Phase).
The electric connection in the
el-panel is wrong or out of
phase.
An authorized electrician must inspect
the waste compactor and make sure
that the el-motor rotates counter
clockwise when operating. Make a
visually check the el-motor when
operating. If the el-motor turns
clockwise, the electricity connection is
wrongly connected. The waste
compactor will seemingly operate as
normal, but will not be able to build up
sufficient pressure to do normal
compaction. Please re-wire el-
connection according to electricity
diagram found in section 1 in this user
manual. A qualified electrician must
perform this procedure. If the el-motor
turns counter-clockwise and as
indicated by the arrow symbol on the
motor, the el-connection is correct.
