Troubleshooting Instructions
If footwear sanitizing unit will not spray
- Check valve stem and roller cam to ensure proper movement and compression (Refer to Figure 1 below)
- If the pump is cycling, but the unit does not spray, the pump may be air locked.
- Check the suction line and strainer for debris and clean if necessary.
If footwear sanitizing unit sprays irregularly
-
Verify that the unit is connected to an appropriate compressed air source. This unit requires 40 psi (2.8 bar) with 1 CFM (28.3 l/min) to operate. To maximize unit lifespan and performance, compressed air should be clean and dry.
Note : If air source has a high moisture content, install a water separator before the unit. -
Verify the pump is cycling regularly. The pump can be disassembled and the o-ring can be relubricated with a silicone-based lube.
-
Check the spray tips and make sure they are not clogged or blocked by debris. The spray tips may be removed and cleaned if necessary.
If the unit does not hold a prime
- Check hose clamps and ensure that barbs are secure.
- Check all tubing connections and verify that none are loose, broken, or leaking.
