REMEDY
A.
With compressor loaded, apply soap solution
on purge valve exhaust, to test for excessive
leakage. Repair purge valve as necessary.
B.
Check governor for proper "cut-in", "cut-out"
pressure and excessive leakage in both
positions. Repair or replace as necessary.
C.
Purge control line must be connected to
unloader port of governor.
D.
Test heater and thermostat as described in
Step 7 of Preventive Maintenance Section.
E.
Compressor discharge to inlet port. Reconnect
lines properly.
F.
Test check valve for proper operation (see
Symptom #3, Remedy B).
G.
Check to determine if air passes through
discharge line. Check for kinks, bends,
excessive carbon deposits.
H.
Discharge line should be constantly sloping
from compressor to air dryer with as few bends
as possible.
I.
See Symptom #1's Causes and Remedies.
A.
Test to determine air flows through purge
control line when compressor unloaded. Check
for undrilled fittings. (See Symptom #4,
Remedy C.)
B.
After determining air reaches purge valve
(Remedy A above), repair purge valve.
C.
Refer to Remedies B, E, F, G, H, for Symptom
#4.
A.
See Causes and Remedies for Symptoms 1,2,3,4
and 5.
B.
Vibration should be held to minimum. Add
bracket supports or change air dryer mounting
location if necessary.
C.
Replace or rebuild desiccant cartridge. NOTE:
If rebuilding cartridge, carefully follow
instructions packed with cartridge
D.
Check for proper compressor installation; if
symptoms persist, replace compressor.
E.
Refer to Remedy D under Symptom #4.
A.
Refer to Symptom #4, Cause E.
A.
Because it is difficult to determine extent of
internal damage to air dryer, it is recommended
that the air dryer be replaced.
NOTE: This type of failure can be prevented by
checking the dryer for proper operation every
three (3) months.
