8. Solució De Problemes
If you encounter issues after installing the overhaul kit, consider the following common troubleshooting steps:
| Problema | Causa possible | Solució |
|---|---|---|
| Compressor not building pressure | Incorrectly installed valves, worn piston rings (if not replaced correctly), air leaks, faulty pressure switch. | Recheck valve installation, inspect for leaks with soapy water, verify piston ring seating, check pressure switch function. |
| Consum excessiu d'oli | Improperly installed oil control rings, damaged cylinder walls, incorrect oil type/level. | Verify oil ring orientation, inspect cylinder for scoring, ensure correct oil type and level. |
| Unusual noises (knocking, grinding) | Improperly seated bearings, loose components, foreign object. | Immediately shut down the compressor. Re-inspect bearings and all internal components for proper installation and clearance. |
| Air leaks around gaskets | Gaskets not seated correctly, damaged gaskets, insufficient torque on fasteners. | Ensure gaskets are clean and properly aligned, replace damaged gaskets, tighten fasteners to specified torque. |
For further troubleshooting, consult the original Ingersoll Rand Model 231 Type 30 service manual or contact a qualified technician.
