PROBLEM
CAUSE
ACTION
Unit will not start - compressor
does not start; no light in Power
Switch
•
Power Cord not attached
•
No voltage at receptacle /
incorrect voltage
•
Attach Power Cord
•
Verify voltage at Job Site
Compressor will not start
•
Circuit breaker has opened
•
Discharge pressure too high
•
HP Switch has opened
permanently
•
Insufficient pressure to close
LP switch (if fitted)
•
Electronics failure in Motor,
Bridge Rectifier or Filter
Capacitor / Relay
•
Identify cause of breaker activation,
rectify and reset
•
Reduce pressure and rotate V2 to Purge
and back to Recovery
•
Reduce pressure
•
Factory service required
•
Check connection, hoses, valves, gauges,
system may not contain refrigerant
•
Factory service required
•
Thermal cut-out has activated
•
Allow motor to cool. If still not working a
factory service is required
Compressor starts but cuts out
within a few minutes; pressure
indication on HP gauge is high
•
V2 is in Purge position and HP
switch activates
•
V3 not open and HP switch
activates
•
Recovery cylinder valve not
open
•
Blocked discharge hose
•
Air in system/cylinder
•
Rotate V2 to Recovery
•
Rotate V3 to open position
•
Open cylinder valve
•
Check & clear blockage
•
Bleed air from system/cylinder
Compressor stops intermittently
•
Vapour pressure of refrigerant
in cylinder is close to HP trip
point
•
Reduce cylinder temperature
Unit overheats
Excessive head pressure due to:
•
High ambient temperature
•
Restricted discharge hose
•
Air in recovery cylinder
•
Fan not turning
•
Reduce cylinder temperature
•
Check & clear restriction
•
Bleed air from cylinder
•
Factory service required
Recovery process too slow
•
Head pressure too high
•
System refrigerant iced up
•
Compressor seals are worn
•
Inlet filter blocked
•
Reduce cylinder temperature or change
cylinders
•
Throttle gauge manifold valves and V3 to
reduce pressure differential between LP
and HP gauges
•
Interrupt process to allow ice to dissipate
•
Replace compressor - check with
wholesaler for assistance
•
Remove filter and clean/replace cone
screen
