FIELD SERVICE GUIDE

Problems most frequently encountered with refrigerated 

dryers are water downstream of the dryer and excessive 

pressure drop. Most causes can be identified and remedied 

by following this guide.

  Closed refrigeration systems are potentially 

dangerous. Work on the refrigeration system must be done 

only by a competent licensed refrigeration mechanic. Do not 

release fluorocarbon refrigerants to the atmosphere. Do not 

discharge liquid refrigerants into floor drains.  Refrigerant 

vapors may accumulate in low places.  Inhalation of high 

concentrations may be fatal.  All refrigerants must be 

recovered per EPA requirements. 

Do not smoke when a refrigeration leak is suspected. Burning 

materials may decompose refrigerants, forming a toxic gas or 

acids that may cause serious injury and property damage.
Before dismantling any part of the dryer or compressed 

air system, completely vent the internal pressure to the 

atmosphere.

PROBLEM

SYMPTOM

POSSIBLE CAUSE

REMEDY

Water Downstream of 

Dryer

Refrigerant compressor not 

running.

Loss of power to dryer

Check power supply, fuses and/or breakers.  Check 

for loose connections.

Dryer turned off.

Check On/Off switch position. 

Dryer overloaded.

Confirm that inlet flow, inlet temperature and inlet 

pressure are within acceptable range of dryer.

Condenser clogged with debris.

Check/clean ambient air filter and condenser.

Fan motor inoperative

Check fan motor operation.  Replace if necessary.

Ambient temperature too high.

Verify ambient temperature throughout day.

High pressure switch activated 

(models 200 to 500 only)

Press manual reset button to switch to reset button.

Compressor overheated.

Turn dryer off.  Contact local distributor.

Compressor defective.

Turn dryer off.  Contact local distributor.

No condensate discharging from 

dryer.

Drain strainer clogged.

Clean drain strainer.

Drain valve inoperative.

Check/rebuild drain valve.

Drain timer or DSM inoperative.

Confirm there is power to the timer or DSM.  

Replace timer or DSM, if necessary.

Drain solenoid inoperative.

Confirm there is power to the coil.  Replace coil, if 

necessary.

Condensate discharging from dryer.

Incorrect drain timer setting.

Adjust drain timer - increase open time and/or 

decrease closed time.

Liquid water entering dryer.

Aftercooler drain valve malfunction.

Check, repair aftercooler drain valve.

Excessive Pressure 

Drop Across Dryer

Frozen condensate in evaporator.

Incorrect hot gas bypass valve 

setting.

Contact local distributor.

Inlet air pressure low.

Upstream restriction in air system.

Check all upstream air system components (valves, 

regulators, etc.)

Dryer undersized.

Excessive compressed air flow.

Resize dryer.

Dew Point Indicator 

Out of Green Zone

Dryer overloaded.

Confirm that inlet flow, inlet temperature and inlet 

pressure are within acceptable range of dryer.

Condenser clogged with debris.

Check/clean ambient air filter and condenser.

Loose sensor connection.

Confirm gauge or DSM sensor is tightly connected 

to dryer tubing.

Defective gauge, DSM or DSM 

sensor.

Replace gauge, DSM or DSM sensor.
