Symptoms

The valve terminal reports a tube vibration anomaly. Pneumatic tubing shows excessive vibration during operation.

Possible Causes

  • Tube unsupported along a long run
  • Pressure pulsation from the compressor
  • Tube diameter too small for the flow rate

Troubleshooting Steps

  1. Step 1: Check tube support brackets and add if needed
    Tube is adequately supported
  2. Step 2: Verify supply pressure is stable
    Pressure is steady without pulsation
  3. Step 3: Confirm tube diameter meets the flow requirement
    Diameter is appropriate for the flow

How to Reset

To reset: Secure and support the tubing, then clear the alarm.
