OBSERVATION

PROBABLE CAUSE

REMEDY

3. No motive pressure flow.

Receiver flooding.

Motive supply failure, obstruction in
motive supply line.

Inspect for motive supply pressure,
closed valve, or obstruction in motive
supply line. Inspect strainer.

4. Inlet Valve noisy.

Condensate in motive supply line.

Inspect motive supply line for
condensate. Check drip trap. Refer to
Assembly and Parts List Drawing.

5. Receiver pressure increase

during discharge.

Valve assembly out of adjustment.
Motive pressure leakage into receiver,
defective Fill Check Valve.

Refer to Float Mechanism Assembly
Drawing.
