Hi folks got a slight problem with my unloader valve.
I have a small fridge compressor sat on top of a 6ltr tank, that feed to a t junction that one port goes to the tank and the other to the unloader valve on the switch. Everything has been working fine up until the other night when I'd been AB'ing for a while, when suddenly the compressor kicked in at low pressure, but nothing going into the tank, deeper investigation found that the unloader appeared to be jamming, and when I lifted it, it filled the tank as normal. When full unloader switches power off and discharged excess, only I noticed a bit of oil mixed in with discharged air and a bit of moisture.
Also when it was leaking I notice oil vapour coming out like smoke.
Is the oil jamming the unloader (although it feels loose enough)? or is it a case that the switch unit has has gone up the shoot? and it there any problem with oil getting in the tank?
I have moisture and oil traps fitted in to outlet hoses and nothing coming out there except clean air.
