  • Page 13: Trouble Shooting

    Operating Instruction Trouble shooting Trouble shooting Danger Trouble shooting may be carried out only by trained experts or by staff members of BLITZ Company. In all actions, please observe the fundamental safety instructions (cf. chapter 1), the safety instructions for operation (cf. chapter 4), and the safety instructions for main- tenance (cf. chapter 5). The compressor does not start up. Potential reasons Actions No connection to network. • Check the connection to the mains. Fuse has blown. • Check the electric cable, switching units and the motor. • Use time-lag fuses only. • Replace the fuse. Network pressure is over cut-in pressure. • Reduce the pressure in the network. The pressure switch is defective. • Replace the pressure switch. The motor has broken down. • Check the electric system and the cables. • Replace the motor. The protective motor switch has been triggered. • See Table “The protective motor switch has been triggered”. The protective motor switch has been triggered.
  • Page 14 Trouble shooting The switching frequency of the motor is too high. Potential reasons Actions The compressed-air reservoir is too small. • Use a larger compressed-air reservoir. The pressure switch has been set wrongly. • Check the pressure switching points.
