Symptoms

The valve terminal reports a slow solenoid response. A solenoid valve is switching slower than expected.

Possible Causes

  • Valve spool contamination causing friction
  • Pilot pressure insufficient for fast switching
  • Solenoid voltage low reducing switching force

Troubleshooting Steps

  1. Step 1: Disassemble and clean the valve spool
    Spool moves freely after cleaning
  2. Step 2: Verify the pilot air pressure
    Pilot pressure meets the requirement
  3. Step 3: Check the solenoid supply voltage
    Voltage is at the rated value

How to Reset

To reset: Clean and adjust the solenoid valve, then clear the alarm.
