Question
Safety valve blows off as soon as compressor starts to build air. Valve is good has been change out with a known good one.The min. Inlet press valve is set to 4.5 Bar. I have removed valve and it moves freely. From here not sure what to check. Thinking of checking for restriction on the oil side. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. The unit is italian made RVK 20 bought from compressor world.
