TROUBLESHOOTING
Problem Possible Solution
Blast flow surges. 1. Air pressure too low. Increase air pressure.
2. Too much media. Adjust Abrasive Control Valve.
Excessive media consumption. 1. Abrasive Control Valve open too far. Close slightly.
2. Air pressure too low. Increase air pressure.
Clogging and plugging of blast flow. 1. Excessive debris in media. Purge and filter media.
2. Media size too large. Use smaller grit size.
3. Nozzle plugging. Use larger Nozzle.
4. Nozzle plugging. Adjust Abrasive Control Valve.
5. Wet media. Dry media. Drain water from Water Trap.
Moisture in abrasive media. 1. Wet media. Change or use dry media.
2. Excessive humidity in air. Drain water from Water Trap.
3. Water in Tank. Empty Tank, and refill.
Humid weather. 1. Moderate humidity: Keep media as dry as possible.
2. Moderate humidity: Use dryer or moisture separator.
3. High humidity: Avoid that period of use if possible.
Overtaxed compressor. 1. Compressor too small. Use larger compressor or restrict
time used.
2. Nozzle size too large. Use smaller Nozzle.
3. Too many leaks in air compressor system. Seal and
tighten all leaks.
4. Holes in Abrasive Hose. Replace Hose.
5. Air filter on compressor plugged. Clean Filter.
Lack of abrasive flow. 1. Tank empty. Fill Tank.
2. Moisture in media. Dry media.
3. Not enough air pressure. Increase air pressure.
4. Abrasive Hose kinked. Straighten Hose.
5. Excessive debris in media. Clean or filter media.
